Rumor: Walmart Selling HD-DVD 360 Addon for 130usd?
Posted by XanTium | March 21 14:00 EST | News Category: Xbox360
 
From kotaku.com:
[QUOTE]
What? It's already over? Over at Cheapassgamer.com, folks are posting that the Xbox 360 HD DVD player is being marked down at Walmart to US $130 from its retail price of $199.99. What's more, apparently Walmart has cleared out its HD DVD players. Reader superatt sends word that The New York Post reports that HD DVD is being outsold by Blu-ray -- Since the PS3 went on sale, Blu-ray sales have jumped to nearly three times that of HD DVD.

The reliablity of a forum named "cheap ass gamer" is really in question here.

I have one and I do love the quality and how it makes my regular dvd movies look better. But I am very unhappy with the fact that HD-Movies are just not coming out. I am seriously considering buying the cheap PS3 just to get the BR player. Kinda sucks, but it is the cheapest BR player on the market and will be for a while.

Question about the HD DVD addon.

Does the HD DVD addon upscale regular DVDs? Is it restricted to VGA or Component


I still don't have a standalone DVD player that can upscale other then my xbox.
