The Decider Guy

Hmm... HD-DVD or Blu Ray. What a decision.

I just bought an HD-DVD player add on for my Xbox360 from my local Best Buy (or, as my colleagues and I have labeled it... "the buy" and "fuck-yourself-with-a-stick buy"). I'm still 3 weeks to go on my receipt until the return limit expires, but I can't say that I'm disappointed with it. There certainly is a lack of titles, at least, a lack of titles that I want to see, which all seem to fall on the Blu Ray end of things.

I just can't get behind that format. Don't get me wrong, I want a PS3. I just don't want it to play Blu Ray.

There are a few reasons that brought me to that decision, so it's not that I'm just buying an HD-DVD player for the sake of bitching about it. You've probably read them 100 times already if you frequent sites like "Digg" or "Slashdot".

I'm not your typical rapper
, and this isn't your typical Ronny Gunz post. It's a plea. A call to dollars if you will. HD-DVD players are cheaper, and I can't tell a difference between the movies. That and I don't like being wrong.

Don't make me wrong here.

I'm not giving a dime to either one of those standards until they merge them or one of them gives up. Yeah, I guess if I already had a 360, it would be a different story. Kind of a "might as well" type of deal. And I'm not spending half my mortgage payment on a PS3. I already spent several mortgage payments on my tv. Which reminds me, I might need a place to crash while me and the bank sort some shit out.
