When you read this written by bloggers against PS3 and blu-ray, what do you say now?

People were saying "Sony made a mistake by purring Blu-Ray ino the PS3, this generation was not ready for Blu-Ray"

I just laught now. Because Blu Ray has won, and HD DVD has lost.

They said "Microsoft was smart for not putting a unnecessary HD DVD player built in and giving it as an ad on"

Guess what? If you paid 399 for a Xbox 360+ 199 for a HD DVD player Add-on, you spended as much money as early PS3 60GB adopters did. The thing is that now they have a Blu-Ray to play their HD movies, but you have go to own a obsolet HD DVD player.

Why do you have to say about those who said "PS3 will fail" when last month PS3 passed Xbox 360 and got very close to Wii?

And it wasnt because 360 has been out longer, just look at ps2 still selling pretty good. Now who is winning?

Honestly, gloating? Unless you have Sony stock thats really uncalled for...

Personally, I'm *hoping* Sony comes out on top, because I prefer Blu-Ray and the PS3 (and yes, I do own a 360 and Wii and numerous other consoles as well). I think that them being able to put games on a Blu Ray disk rather than a standard DVD will eventually put them leaps and bounds ahead in the long run. But again, thats a personal opnion, not fact. A lot like those articles you just linked above...those are peoples opinions, not "facts".

ANYWAY...

It aint over til the fat lady sings. We've seen superior hardware lose out before. VHS vs Betamax, anyone? Well, anyone old enough to remember...The sega Saturn? And the Dreamcast? Both technically superior to the competition...yet they weren't the winners. At this point, its really too early to say for sure which format will come out on top. Paramount, Toshiba, Disney....all siding with one format or another....who can say how it will REALLY turn out? Not a bunch of people just spouting opinions at this point, thats for sure...
