  • HD-DVD failed... just like 54.4% of 360 consoles.

  • Blu-ray FTW!

  • I still love my HD DVDs to bad it failed, the cases are cooler

  • Explains why it failed, I see now. Not so seriously, How do I get the HDDvD case open, it's harder then I thought to find a How To video for this

  • Where is Blu-Ray tems ???

  • If there were blu-ray dancers, they would be the same as HDDVD, but they could fly.

  • @Spock2

    no no no no

    if they were blu-ray chuck norris would walk on stage

  • what do break dancers have to do with a DVD? man microsoft wishes they had kevin butler

  • Blu Ray is still tbagging hddvd

  • yeah wheres blu-ray??

  • Aww I waiting for Blu-Ray to come out :( and eff shit up

  • Laser discs had true sound from the theatres because it was a bigger surface. I think DVD and Blue ray has compressed sound because when I watch laser disc I can hear clear dialogue sometime DVD and Blue ray sound muffled even with a high end receiver but you do get a clear picture on BD or DVD. I wish they would make blue rays on bigger discs more surface area better sound

  • @tokyoronin HD DVD and Blu-Ray are the first consumer formats to have bit-identical audio track when compared to the original master.

  • I'd like to see Blu-ray on that stage. :D

  • No final teria que entrar um cover do Michael Jackson com a camisa Blu-Ray fazendo o MOONWALKER..

  • Sony got the last laugh because they waited around and got to have Bluray. And idk know if it's any better than HD DVD but it's what going to dominate over DVD period.

  • Personally I think the HD dvd is much better than the blu ray, it was the same technology as the dvd but only more layers for more space. And it was cheap aswell.

  • Erm, blu-ray players are higher quality.

  • Higher quality of what? There is no difference in quaility, blu ray is just new technology wheras HD DVD was just an upgraded DVD. So much cheaper thus better for us.

  • More space = More space for quality.

  • No the space was enoguh, they fill the blu rays up with lots of extras like languages and extra clips. 720p stays 720p whether on blu ray or hd-dvd.

  • Blu-Ray fer Ghey

  • do they sell the hd dvd drive any more? or is it bulit in or something now?

  • u can still buy them from ebay and amazon thats about it.

  • if microsoft put hd dvd built into every xbox360, the war will go on for a lot longer.

  • what war the sony vs microsoft war?

  • no, the hd dvd and bluray war. sony vs microsoft war is already going on forever.

  • o lol

  • Nah, it would've ended the same way.

  • Nope, coz then the HD dvd players would still be built and they wouldn't stop the production.

  • PS3's blu-ray capability is the ONLY thing that saved that system.

  • I'm a hardcore Sony backer always have been and always will be. But the PS3 as of now is still what it was at release. A really exspensive paperweight. It's not backwards compatible anymore, and the title selection vs. that of its 100% backwards compatible predecessor the PS2 is shameful, companies are still authoring quality PS2 games..

  • i have a xbox 360 and i love play my games on HDTV.

  • 360 rule!

  • but apparently the hd-dvd does not

  • sono davvero bravi!!

  • blu-ray pwns hd dvd

  • brutti porci cagnacci luridi maledetti state ancora al hd dvd quando la play 3 ha il blu ray

  • HD-DVD... now experience the amazing sound and picture quality of GOOD ENOUGH.

  • they r poromoting ADIDAS TENNIS

  • ha. ha. ha.

    can trash that drive.

    and yeah, all the hd dvd

  • hahaha the x-box will be the same end that hd-dvd

    blu-ray and ps3 rulez

  • you must feel pretty retarted since HD won the battle and the 360 is the best gaming console out thier, half the games dont even work on Ps3 i bought fallout for it and it sucks i have both and am now selling ps3 since it sucks so bad!!

  • AGREED!

  • yea, keep playing this commercial! HAHAHA BLU RAY TEH WINNER!!!

  • lol. of course. psx games were made even before standard dvd came out.

    then dvd came out. and ps2 and xbox.

    then hd-dvd vs bluray."ithought xbox360 was using hd-dvd for game disc"lol.that kind of saved their asses.but not for long lol.

  • What the hell is a an HD-DVD?!?! ...

    :P

  • the war is over now and blu-ray won blu-ray is the future format

  • Because xbox 360 doesnt have a built in blu ray disc player like the ps3 and game sizes are steadily increasing as the graphics and level sizes icrease it will be too soon that you will see multi disk xbox 360 games, if you dont believe me look at the ps2 that used the same disk format as the 360 but with shitty graphix and small level sizes i heard that within the next 3 years sony's ps3 games will exeed 100gb of data thats like 8 360 disks.

  • hey. xbox not usint cds. xbox uses dvds.

    it store 8 gigs. while blu-ray stores 60gigs.

    8360 x 700 megs = 5 852 000 megs.see 5852 gigs. wich is 5.852 terabytes. while if it were dvd you talk about it would been.66 880 gigabytes. wich is 66.88 terabytes. thats lol insane. oh wait. 8x xbox 360 discs. ZOMG.make more sense. lol you should look at what you writed before sending it.lol

  • Si asi se mueve el HD DVD que ya murio :D

    no imagino como se a de mover el Blu-Ray que quedo como ganador

  • xbox sucks

  • AHAHAHAHA shame microsoft you tried to go with HD DVD just to spite Sony but its backfired! now youve got a shitty console with no high definition drive and aload of pissed off customers.

  • With cheap-ass money saving advertising like this it doesn't surprise me why they lost.

  • LOL yeah

  • the HD-DVD is dead hahaha

  • embarassing moment for XBOX.

  • HA HA TO All you Microsuck fan boys that were Praising your HDDVD Players... Now you got a 200$ Paperweight..... For the price you paid for your Xbox and HdDvd Player you could have gotten a PS3 That doesn't RROD all the time!

  • yea

  • @thebigbluecangmail you know it still plays HD movies right? And the xbox exclusives

  • ummm... when can I preorder a Blu-Ray 360 disc player? :(

  • I dont think xbox will ever get blu ray with it being sony and all. Microsoft did say that their games would never use high definition discs too so thats a bit of a bummer.

  • well i heard they were working on it. its kinda funny how microsoft were spitting on blu-ray and now they got fucked up the ass.i bet you bill gates is putting salve on his ass right now from all the blu-ray buttrape.LOL

  • its official, HD dvd is dead. funeral scheduled a month from now

  • lol hd dvd is dead ha ha fuck toshiba and microsoft.

  • What the heck?! I was going to go around to all the HD DVD videos and say that exact same thing! Except for the Toshiba part.

  • THis is funnier now

  • blue-ray: kiss my ass hd-dvd

  • HAHAHA! Microcrap Xbox sinking faster then the titanic! BD just pwned!!

  • Blu-Ray has won HD-DVD major news check reuters Toshiba has walked out! and PS3 outsold 360 in USA during January!!! all this information is based on FACT!

  • funny how micrsoft put out thier system a year ahead. & you get all these m$ fanboys rambling how they are gonna dominate. Now sony are doin major this year while m$ are fixing all the RED RING OF CRAP & having HD DVD dinished. SONY ALL THE WAAY!

  • Yeh, not to mention they only have like 2 good titles coming out this year. Talk about blowing your load prematurely. Rushing out their system with shitty hardware and releasing all its good "exclusive" games in the first year. All it's AAA titles eventually get ported to PC and often end up being superior on the PC. No real reason to buy one at all is there?

    Way to shoot yourself in the foot M$.

  • poor bastards hd dvd lost, hail to the new king the blue ray, even microsoft is gonna support it now

  • i think this commercial would be more accurate if the dancers would fall on their heads and break their necks. HD DVD......DEAD

  • ok, how is my statement fanboyish? most producers are backing blu ray even though hd dvd is better. why? because of pirated hd dvds, lack of region encoding. producers go for whats better for them, they don't give a shit about the customers.

  • The war is over huh. Well, if that's true then why are movies still coming out on HD and why is Universal still HD only? Hmmmm?

  • You videotaped your computer! Blu-Ray won the war, get over HD-DVD

  • why must hd dvd fanboys keeping this war alive? seriously, get over it. i want to make sure the smoke clears so i can buy some movies already. hd dvd will never appeal to producers that simple. no region encoding? hackers have already cracked and pirated hd dvd codes. producers clearly want a safer investment, that is blu ray. so despite how you scream how much sony sucks get over it. producers never really gave a shit about hd dvd.

  • You really think region encoding is keeping producers away? They're working on it right now, and DVD didn't have region encoding at first either. Besides, if someone hacks, they can't burn the HD movie to a disk. there aren't any HD burners or blank HD dvds available to the public. Back up what you say with some sort of evidence rather than blabbing on about something you THINK you know all about. Do you know any producers? I didn't think so.

  • meh. just google up hd dvd hacked and you will get plenty of nerds praising on how they hacked the code already. hell i even saw a vid on youtube. have i seen a hacked blu ray anywhere or nerds stating they have done it? no. do you know producers? no you don't but you must understand its all about money, and where is their investment more safe? blu ray, despite hd dvd is better for the consumer. if you can't see that than you are clearly delusional.

  • this is a cool ad

  • Circuit City has discontinued the HD-DVD format so it can expand it's Blu-Ray lineup.

    It's Blu-Ray inventory is much bigger. Seven Circuit City stores were contacted. Three confirmed that the store has discontinued the HD-DVD format altogether, meaning Blu-Ray exclusive. This decision is probably based on company sales of the two formats which consisted of 87% for Blu-Ray disc and 13% for HD-DVD.

    It will be any day before Toshiba announces the death of HD-DVD.

    BLU RAY WINS!!

  • Misinformation as CC has not done anything and HD DVD is very much alive

  • hahahahhahaha

    how many supporters does hd-dvd currently have?

  • Based on the number of votes to keep it alive...a lot.

  • then a guy with a blu ray shirt comes out and shoots them all in the face. ;)

  • your fucking retarted playstation has always smoked xbox and always will

  • Suuuure...if you want to believe that =D

    PS3 isn't selling well, Wii and 360 are both owning PS3 in numbers =D =D =D =D =D xD =D =D

  • Actually, PS3 is selling more units per month worldwide than the 360, but still not the wii, yet.

  • Actually yes, PS3 reached the 10M mark 4 months sooner than the 360 did. vgchartz fact. :)

  • Actually yes, PS3 reached the 10M mark 4 months sooner than the 360 did. vgchartz fact. :)

  • This commercial is not convincing me of anything, what are they trying to do? Make the hd-dvd look "Hip" and "cool" by having some lame breakdancers prance around with a generic white T with hd-dvd written on them? Show your product to masses and show them what it can do, and what it offers to get them interested. ..not this...what a big fail.

  • lol, MS is wrong, HD DVD is Dead. Future is Blu

  • why is everyone sided with either hd-dvd or blu-ray??

    i barely give a crap as long as the best and cheapest wins!

  • Blu Ray has won!

    HD-DVD is dead!

  • wow, what a terrible commerical. XBOX has the worse advertising ever.

  • Exactly...

    What the crap is this lame breakdancing supposed to be convincing me of? Oh, ASIDE from the fact that HD-DVD is doomed to fail?

    Pisses me off though that Universal owns Battlestar Galactica, so all of that is, until some future policy shift, HD-DVD exclusive.

  • The Only good movies for hd dvd are: Transformers (really good movie) The Kingdom and Shrek the Third

    whilst blu ray has:

    Black Hawk Down

    Talladega Nights

    Spiderman 3

    Piratesd of the Caribean Trilogy

    Rataouille (i watched it last night very good)

    Fifth Element

    and others.

  • Thanks for your completely worthless opinion.

  • lol hd dvd hear me the director of transformers said no blu-ray no transformers2 becouse paramount bought by toshiba but they are rethinking of blu-ray which will make hd dvd sucks ass

  • HD-DVD is dead. Paramount has a out clause allowing them to leave to Blu-Ray if Warner was to go exclusive to blu-ray, which it has. So the only one left is Universal, and even they are timed exclusive for about 12 months or so. Say bye bye to HD-DVD. This is why I don't buy Microsoft crap, they too dumb to understand technology.

  • The Transformers Blu Ray in disguise.

  • MS has recently announced that they'd make a bluray player for the xbox2 if people wanted it. Seems they understood this fight might go either way.

  • ?v=EBjEDO2ouiA

    ^Blu-ray Disc

  • gay

  • Warner is now with Blu-Ray, HD DVD is dying.

    Nice video.

  • il est mort ta merde de hd-dvd

  • HD-DVD will soon make the pages of history. They officially lost WB, so Blu-ray will live on as the next format!! May HD-DVD RIP : )

  • what does break dancing have to do with movies?

  • no its like dvd was awesome (guy break dancing)

    then hd dvd has 6 awesome breakdancers (better i guess)

  • HD-DVD is fucked!

  • Too funny!

    Too late!

  • can xbox 360s play hd dvd with out no upgrade or what eva

  • No. You need the HD-DVD player attachment for the 360.

  • HD RULZZZZ

  • massive rocks =]

  • bluray is still using mpeg2 prossesing know thats old techno with bottom of the barrel chips and inflated prices sony have played you for fools i should know i work for them

  • Do some research. BluRay and HD-DVD are practically the same in terms of formats supported AND even in read speed. BluRay and HD-DVD BOTH can run MPEG-2, H.264, and VC-1 and those are the only options for BOTH formats. I doubt you work for Sony, too, since you are far too uninformed and to add to the "prossesing" comment .. First, learn to spellcheck. Second, MPEG2 isn't processing, it's encoding. HIGHLY unlikely you work at Sony, I can tell.

  • Ljbanner, you just got whored by scarslasher.

  • Uhm...HD DVD has more features and have their specs ready. The fact that new versions of Blu-Ray are still coming and still don't have as much features as HD DVD's? That if you compare the same movie in both formats, HD DVD has more on the disc + a DVD? What is better about Blu-Ray, tell me that...

  • First get movies then we'll talk about Hd movies...did I get that right? yup ;)

    idiot

  • Calling names only proves you're wrong =D

  • Whats with the big fight? Why don't you just get one of those things that play HD DVDs and Bluray so you don't have to fight.

  • Because those that play both are terrible at playing either format. It's a compromise that compromises too much.

  • HD DVD is the evolution of DVD

    Blu-ray is the revolution

  • Blu-ray sucks. Tried a standalone player. Really slow on reading discs and boot-up. Sooooo, I got an HD DVD player. Real fast at boot-ups and takes 2 seconds to read a disc (I'm serious!)

  • 360 & HD DVD FTW!!!

  • Are you sure that those are HD DVD players, or are you seeing regular DVD upconverters or upscalers that take regular DVDs and upconvert them to 720p, 1080i, and 1080?

  • lol, that guy in the front spinning on his head is stuck to this very day.

  • HD DVD is not even a threat.

  • VHS is more of a threat than HD-DVD.

  • idiot.

  • my gaming depression is over yes mighty lord its over now to hardcore gaming at night yes yes yes

  • damn the half life orange box is out, og jesus lord, shit ..maaaaan im hardcore im hooked and its cooooooooooooooool .........

  • Gta, gta, gta,gta, gta ....

  • and assasins creed oh boy oh boy ubisoft rules ,, they rule . !!!!!!!!!!!

  • cant wait for the next splintercell, i am sam fisher .. in the game of course :)

  • and bioshock was that a game maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan ...

  • Not to talk about skate, the demo ive played alot and i meen alot of times, im insane on that board, simply insane ...

  • and i havent played halo 3 yet but its at my table . i cant wait to finish the fight tonight :)

  • The itallion stallion :)

  • I would like if not one format had to die . i hope there are room for both formats and the porn industri choose both formats . Rooco siffredi your the man :)

  • Doesn't the porn industry want to pick the one with lower resolution so that you cannot see blemishes or flaws in porn stars?

  • the porn industry is best when u get the free samples on the web, fuck the porn dvd's:P

  • At the mo blu ray is winning cause of the ps3 but hd dvd have a secret weapon PORN.And everybody knows Porn sells.

  • What's the dif between HD and Blu-Ray?

    I know they both look better than normal DVD but seriously,

    WHAT'S THE F***ING DIFFERENCE?

  • bluray and hd dvd got around the same quality. bluray has more space on their disks, but hd dvd disks can use multiple layers so it evens each other out.

    In the film industry Sony owns MS pretty hard, in the game industry its the opposite.

    That means the PS3 has shit for good games, and there is shit (compared to bluray) out movie based.

  • mm think what woud look when blue ray wore in there

  • A nerd picking his nose, and it's Blu-Ray not Blue-Ray

  • From a marketing standpoint, HD-DVD appears to be positioning itself as the more practical high-def DVD solution, an extension of the format rather than a leap beyond it. The Blu-ray group, for better or worse, is taking the bait and campaigning on technological superiority. Unfortunately, as a result, the press has jumped on the whole VHS vs. Betamax analogy--you know, the old "the best technology doesn't always win" story, which doesn't help Sony.

  • next ppl to come on would be a bunch of 50 guys in blue t-shirts with the white letters saying blu-ray and they just kick the hd-dvd's BUTT

  • Here's the conversation that resulted in the making of this ad:

    Ms guy 1: We need a way to market Hd-dvd to the common man, any ideas?

    Ms guy 2: Talk to the consumer like a normal person and give them tech specs backed up with relevant sources?

    Ms guy 1: Errr... how about some dudes breakdancing, the kids love breakdancing!

    Ms guy 2: WTF DOES BREAKDANCING HAVE TO DO WITH NEXT GENERATION FORMAT STORAGE?!?

    Ms guy 1: You're fired, breakdancing it is... okay, time to troll PS3 boards!

  • I love HD DVD and all but they really need to work on their commercials/advertisement.

  • Just to burst your bubble, commentors :-P Blu-Ray can make it up to 50GB double-layer, and so does Blu-Ray. They're the same thing, idiots, only formatted differently. Just like different Linux versions >.> .

  • So you're saying there is no difference between Blu-Ray and Blu-Ray? That's very informative.

  • hd dvd rules

  • fuck the fucking blu ray it is no a blu ray HD DVD RULZ

  • Blu-ray rules!

  • hd dvd rules it kicks blu rays ass

  • HD DVD kicks Blu-ray's Arse, blu-ray has already lost the war!

  • it can only store 25GB jackass, While hd dvd is fixing to get the 51GB disc. Fuck Blu ray

  • Dude below, everyone knows, except for retards, anyways the point was it is the differance between regular DVD and HD, not that the 360 runs games using the disc. ON a side note the real desperate format is blu-ray. If they weren't they wouldn't have gotten on top with what the measures they took.

  • HD DVD SUCKS!!!!! BLU-RAY RULSSSSS

  • every one shut up blu-ray is winnimg and studios are droping hd dvd support and going to blu-ray.blu-ray is out selling hd dvd. plus blu-ray has way more studios and support and the only thing keeping hd dvd alive is universal and microsoft. and once more blu-ray has way more features and memory.
