XBox never came with HD DVD rom in the first place, so they're not so much affected. Unless the game developer having problems with DVD capacity in making bigger and larger game system. Probably they have something like 2 DVD games. hohoohho!
The day Xbox uses Blu-Ray will be the day Bill Gates bow down to Sony. |

Probably they have something like 2 DVD games. hohoohho! its quite enough to put Xbox 360 game in a DVD9 with 9 GB. PC games is currently keeping this capacity. Actually if you go to torrent, look for PS3 ISOs, the size is roughly 7-GB only after RAR compression, which I think the blu-ray's advantage is that they can use lesser or no compression for their games compare to XboxThe day Xbox uses Blu-Ray will be the day Bill Gates bow down to Sony. ps. I don't understand why ppl still upload the ISO when it's not possible to run it currently |

Bill Gates is already "retired"(well atleast very soon).The day Xbox uses Blu-Ray will be the day Bill Gates bow down to Sony. 360 having Blu-Ray or not doesn't really say much either. Since Blu-Ray isn't even owned entirely by Sony anyways. |
