ok HD DVD it is

now what about sound? :)

Yeah, you probably want one with sound.

Theirs a lot of people talking shit in this thread. I don't claim to know all the facts & yes i'm biased because i've got a PS3. If anyone wants to look into Hi-Def formats you could try looking here:

rather than listening to a load of fan boy crap spouted by clueless fuckwitts.........

I have a PS3 and a HD-DVD player.



I'm not biased.........I'm confused!:D

Get a good receiver make sure there's an optical out on the player you get and an input on the receiver.

Buy loud speakers.

I work for Playstation...yet I'd be a clueless fuckwit fanboy if I were to ignore the HD/DVD format being a contender.
It's still early going yet - both have good features, so it's up to each individual user to say "this is what I'm after".
Personally, I'd buy both...if not straight away, at least eventually.

This is why I'm waiting...

"What Comes After Blu-Ray and HD-DVD? Holographic Versatile Disc

It may sound like something that would be found on the Starship
Enterprise, but the Holographic Versatile Disc is apparently the next
(next) generation of optical storage.

A HVD disc could hold as much data as 200 standard DVDs (that's 1
Terrebyte) and transfer data 40 times faster.

The Holographic Versatile Disc Alliance has been formed to flesh out
standards for this new technology which is based on holography
breakthroughs from Japan's Optware, one of the six founders of the
consortium.

Optware describes on its website how holographic recording technology
records data on discs in the form of laser interference fringes.

Other members of the alliance include CMC Magnetics Corporation, Fuji
Photo Film, Nippon Paint Co. Ltd., Pulstec Industrial Co., Ltd. and
TOAGOSEI CO., LTD.,"

HD-DVD! Xbox360 rules and I believe will win the fight hands down. :rolleyes:

Indeed. I must agree with you.

I've read about this last year, do we know around when though ? I just picked up a HDTV a few days ago, and I must say it looks GREAT!
