By Gavin Mannion
May 30, 2007 - 18 years ago

So the creative VP of Rockstar has come out and said that the 360 has created ‘limitations’ on what it could do when developing GTA…. Basically it boils down to the Core model and no Blu-Ray or HD-DVD built in. Now I completely agree with him on the Core model, I cannot believe Microsoft ever released a model without a Harddrive …

By Gavin Mannion
May 30, 2007 - 18 years ago

So the Sony Protection Group is at it again… They have posted a thoroughly unbiased 🙂 article asking why people are buying HD-DVD instead of Blu-Ray… So, to answer the question of “Why are some people still buying HD DVD?”, it’s due to consumers being misinformed and sheer ignorance.
