I got the 360, 2 games, an extra wireless controller, a plug and play charger for only $570+tax. hmm, that seems worth it to me. blu-ray is overrated. how many people are going to trade in all their dvd’s for blu-ray? and isn’t there a battle with blu-ray? i read some studios aren’t going to support it. blu-ray isn’t even here yet in the mainstream so who cares if it has it. the 360 can do everything the ps3 can, minus blu-ray. wow, big f-in deal. wait 6 months and buy one for $100 at best buy, it still will be cheaper.

DID YOU READ WHAT I SAID!!!

So $399 + the HD-DVD for $150-$200 = tada around $599 WOW look @ that…math + reading comprehension is a wonderful thing

whitey is right…the next gen DVDs will take over & phase out the old 480p  
regualr DVD’s are sub-par. High Def & nexy gen high def DVD’s are the future.

& its not overrated…1080p is better then 480p CASE CLOSED.  
i see it on a daily basis.

& if you want to get techical about it …PS3 games are on blueray discs so blueray gives programers more freedom & space, granted not all games will utilize the space, but its there…last i read microsoft was still deciding on if they would make HD-DVD games once the drive was avialable.
