  1. PLEASE! PLEASE let that secret title be a remake of Shadow of the Collossus with extra bosses or a real squel to ICO
  2. yea, I should have provided a link. ;; I kinda wish there would be a way to preview the quailty before I put down that kind of cash for bluray set.
  3. I think the real winner is Sony (and now the other studios behind them). They can relax and not drop their prices now with no competition in terms of another HD media. they can now charge at a higher price knowing early adopters will pay for it. And if people think DVD is now their competition, I don't think so and I don't think the studios thinks that either. DVD sales are making millions for them, why would they cannibalize that while they can still get people to pay 30 for HD content?
  4. as much as I love SAC..US$ 257.00 for Ghost in the Shell S.A.C. (English Subtitles) [Limited Release] [blu-ray]....is HD and HD sound worth that much ;; that's not even counting the shipping
  5. Lost Planet for the Ps3 will require an install as well (Another capcom game), they say it install the entire game (around 5-6GB) and only uses the disc to check for the game (like a PC). there are also talks about Hot Shot Golf could have an install as well. anyway, anyone know when Sony will officially release the Dual Shock 3 in North America?
  6. Thanks! there are a couple I want, however the lowest price is something like 14.95, still too high to buy on a dying tech, I'll wait a little longer for it to drop lower to the 9.99 area. i would love to get Children of Men, Fearless, etc..
  7. I was just quoting what Steven Hirsch, co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment stated in the article in the below link..I would think someone as high in the business like him would know a thing about cost... http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,128742-c...ia/article.html the point I was making was that this article was posted Feb 2007 (a year ago) when HD-DVD had a major price advantage and they didn't use it ;;
  8. Can someone please post fire sales of HD DVDs links here? I'm hoping they will drop below $10 each. Thanks
  9. wow, I guess porn isn't the deciding factor in this next gen high def media. "In fact, Vivid is the only company in the adult film industry using Blu-ray Disc right now. Other companies say they were rebuffed by Sony and other companies that replicate Blu-ray Discs." "Eight companies worldwide can replicate Blu-ray Discs, Hirsch said. Two of those companies are controlled by Sony, which won't allow them to handle pornography. Five other companies have contracts to replicate discs for Walt Disney, which stipulate that they cannot handle adult films if they want to work with Disney. " Anyways..about pricing..you would think HD-DVD would be able to pull that card, but I'm guessing that will dip into the Studios' sales of DVD "Blu-ray is extremely expensive to work with," said Hirsch. Authoring in Blu-ray Disc is about four times more expensive than HD DVD, he said, while replicating is three times as expensive." Well, it's too late for HD DVD now to go with that princing strategy now (I really wish they pass the savings on to us ).....you think porn on the HD DVD will help them?
  10. yes!! this is awesome!!...The bad news, no subtitles :-( but can you imagine it in full 1080p!!!!!!!!! "- Director Makoto Kaido's hit works "Byosoku 5 Centimeter" and "Kumo no Muko, Yakusoku no Basho" are coming soon to next generation formats HD DVD and Blu-ray!" Bluray http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CWF-502 HD DVD http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=CWF-402
  11. Thanks wolfx! I'm still waiting for the movie ;; wow, from the pics..it looks like a kung fu action flick now ;;
  12. ...but...but... what if John teenager version have the hots for her? .....ewwww..
  13. I thought nothing non-organic could "time travel"? how did that metal skull go through the time travel thing?
  14. LOL! They might as well add Lion-O from Thundercats :-P
  15. here's a 2X blu-ray burner for $439 ;-) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16827248005
  16. wait a sec..I thought the 80GB still had one chip left and they were still doing software emu for it even though some ps2 games won't work on it. and the 40GB ones are the chipless ones.
  17. LOL, that would be ironic. after waking up 280 years later, you find out that the entire world has gone mad with an infected virus, and then you kill yourself, because it's better than being infected.
  18. If you wanted storage space, you can wait for Holographic Versatile Disc (HVD) which can hold up to 3.9 terabytes (TB) of information http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_Versatile_Disc
  19. you're right ;; "Paramount is poised to drop its support of HD-DVD following Warner Brothers' recent backing of Sony's Blu-ray technology, in a move that could sound the death knell of HD-DVD and bring the home entertainment format war to a definitive end. Paramount and DreamWorks Animation, which makes the Shrek films, came out in support of HD-DVD last summer, joining General Electric's Universal Studios as the main backers of the Toshiba format. However, Paramount, which is owned by Viacom, is understood to have a clause in its contract with the HD-DVD camp that would allow it to switch sides in the event of Warner backing Blu-ray, according to people familiar with the situation.

  25. I loved the old Duke Game! My friends and I played lan games throughout the nights. some good times back then. I'm really disappointed in the teaser. I mean Crysis took only a couple years to make and its freaking beautiful! yea, i know gameplay is everything....I hope it will have some good content to complete with what's out now ;; I mean look at this link "Things that have happened since DNF was announced." Some really scary stuff :-p http://www.indygamers.com/vB/showthread.php?t=10300 "While DNF has been in production, Blizzard Entertainment, another studio famous for delays, has released four full games(Starcraft, Diablo 2, Warcraft 3, and World of Warcraft), with expansions for three (four when Burning Crusade comes out)."
