Well the Blu-Ray CP is NOT finalized AFAIK. The outcry over the HDCP/480p thing was loud and they might be retooling. You're probably right, too - the components aren't cheap.Quote:
BTW - do you guys really think it's some copy protection thing? I can't help but wonder if those $800 PS3 component estimates were accurate after all. and they were only willing to take a loss on a small number of $600 Japanese conoles...
....
That's fucking hilarious Cow. :lol:
Wonder if this will have any bearing on that it would (reportedly) be region free (for games anyways).
Anyways, it doesn't matter if it's delayed by 6 months, it'll still be #1. Still lame though. BluRay/HD DVD not to mention the whole future proofing nonsense on their part is getting rediculous.
While it might stay #1 this will make it a closer race.
If the PS3 isnt on store shelves in the US this Christmas it probably wont be #1 here. I dont care about Japanese sales.
I am all for that. And doubt it'll happen but I'd love to see the home console race as close as it is right now with PSP and DS.Quote:

anyways, now that all BD movies will only run using HDMI and DVI, i really hope that doesnt apply to games too(i know it won't but im just double checking)
I'm sorta alright since my monitor does DVI, but it's a kick in the mouth that I can't use my 30in widescreen tv for it.
im assuming games will run in component. but in the case of movies, i hear some will run in component, and the copy proted ones will only work with HDMI. and if you dont have HDMI it will down convert to 480p or some crap like.......it's just some shit i read in the www.blu-ray.com forums
