i might just go for the new x360. I have always been a PS fan but this time Sony have gone too far: 1000$ for a console in way too much and the new 8 core proccesor i bound to have problems and i hope someone will end up with a broken PS3 and will sue and win. That'll teach em.
Poor Jaz
he will go nuts when he sees this. He will probably buy it anyway, i mean whats a Xbox reviewer without the NEW Xbox which is probably more EXPENSIVE

It cuts bills mostly, couse i didn't a shit of a drop of prices when they made PS3. I mean wtf got into them? The PS2 worked just fine with a friggin 400 mhz proccesor. What did they need a 3.2 ghz 8 core proccesor for???? A freaking 1 core 1ghz proccesor would have done the job just FINE!!! And would have kept the company out of losses.

The Sony products that undergone such mods even had names changed and came on the last rounds of its counterparts lifetime.
Anyway, it will be weird to see the same game perform differently on X360 MK-I and X360 MK-II, the cooler environment can lead to a software OC of the main processor and it is stated that it will be slightly faster.

The updates are cool - it was only natural for them to do something like this to ensure that they keep this advantage over the PS3.
I've read that they'll be producing a HD-DVD add-on for something in the region of $100, but also including them in their new Xbox 360's. So I'll most likley get a new Xbox 360 when they hit the shelves, and it doesn't bother me in the slightest.
After all, everyone who buys a console on launch day is going to get screwed at somepoint - but then we're the hardcore, of course.
What is good for Xbox is good for me. Bring it on, Sony!

Still a reasonable price considering it's new technology. I guess I'll wait until next year to buy a 360 console, but I might pick up some of the games beforehand.Jaz said:
Because we all know that the Blu-Ray format will be the victor due to it's price. :[
Or the gullable. XDAfter all, everyone who buys a console on launch day is going to get screwed at somepoint - but then we're the hardcore, of course.
If I recall, High Definition is a strain on the processor when compared to Standard Definition. Plus, the developers have more freedom in what they want on-screen at once.

To harass Microsoft, and to show how long computer equipment can function at 300 degrees, and to show how plastic melts.Blacklord said:
I sure wont get a PS3 and definetly not for a grand, and if its true that the games are going to be $100 each, there is no way Im going to buy that, I would rather spend $400 and have bill gates get it, and have him get even richer, than spend $1000 on a PS3 and have it go to sony. Heck I would rather get a revolution than a PS3.

Wikipedia is the shit
Well the first models did have slower proccesors but by the end of the scph-3901 series they put in better proccesors and shittier dvd-roms becouse people started to use hdadvance a lot.
I wouldn't be so quick to declare a winner. HD-DVD is cheaper and got to market first, but Blu-ray has greater backing from the movie studios.

And HD DVD is backed by huge companies such as IBM and Microsoft. HD DVD will live on in the computer history, and the Blu-Ray will be favored by the movie industry.Allnatural said:
It seems that both formats pretty much will survive. Many companies are making (or at least concidering making) hybrid players that plays both types of discs.

We've seen lots of things surviving recently, haven't we? It seems, right now, that none of the formats are losing. Although I guess we shall see! When HDTV really breaks through is when we shall see the shining light that will guide us in the shroud of darkness!
