i didnt mean to continue that controversy here i just said that if i were to own MS i would give first preference to hindi speaking north indians thats all ur the 1 combining the 2 arguements not me

DO YOU WANT ME TO GO IN DEFENSIVE AND BASH WHOLE NORTH INDIANS IN THIS FORUM?

feel free to get urself banned

o and yeah goobster, i agree

 

[praka123]

there is no point in arguing with u. I dont support piracy.
I know when asked whether I prefer DRM or piracy-I opted for the 2nd in a tight choice. I feel end user should be educated about piracy and also the product cost should be minimal and hence sales of large volumes,which is gonna stop piracy.
But NEVER it is allowed,DRMing something we "BUY"

but also NEVER M$haft for the reason of this devilish Monopolistic company which uses unethical methods bribing governments to get off with Linux ! even the Software patent FUD from M$haft is worth what it is!


@imav:ur against piracy and u have a pirated OS X on ur PC as triple boot.

iMav:come on why are you being so defensive?M$ supported\backed hd-dvd,its a fact.Hd-dvd has lost,its yet another fact.

And I say it again : PS3 was one of the main reason blu-ray won.

HD-DVD managed to stay for so long against blu-ry just cuz of xbox360, the end was long due.


and would you believe me that the end of xbox360 is due too?Just a matter of months.

say it here but dont say it in front of some 1 who is saner than u he will laugh u off

HD-DVD managed to stay for so long against blu-ry just cuz of xbox360, the end was long due.

i think it had more to do with the fact that paramount and universal were backing the format with their titles and the hd format is more of a movie format than a gaming format

and would you believe me that the end of xbox360 is due too?

no, coz the 360 kicked ps3s arse so freaking hard that it took *the world's best* console more than a year to salvage some pride

 

[narangz]

IMO Xbox 360 & HD-DVD are better. PS3 had low sales not Xbox 360.

Xbox 360 Definitely Is .

Read any good gaming site and you'll soon Find out that the Xbox 360's Unified Shader Architecture is way ahead of the PS3's GPU which still uses the old Pixel and Vertex Shaders .

TAKE THAT XBOX!!

He he...I can hear the crackers going off in the Sony offices!

Where did MS supported HD DVD????? Didn't Apple also supported Blu Ray this way?? MS gave users a choice to buy an HD DVD drive in XBOX 360 as an add on, but they did not shove it to the users throat like PS3 did. PS3 doesn't even uses Blu Ray for games.

And I say it again : PS3 was one of the main reason blu-ray won.

Yup, I agree.

HD-DVD managed to stay for so long against blu-ry just cuz of xbox360, the end was long due.

No, it was the movie studios & porn industry.

would you believe me that the end of xbox360 is due too?Just a matter of months.

Lolz....ok this is compleately Bull****. Was it HD DVD which made the market of XBOX 360 or games/XBOX Live/Guitar Hero/Viva Pinata.

I have not worked on XNA yet but from what I have studied from the XNA & DX 10/10.1 white papers, unified shaders are indeed better then individual shaders, this is the reason even OpenGL is going the Unified shader way. The old methodology of brute force approach & number crunching is gone now, it's time to optimise & tap the maximum out of the current hardware. As hardware is getting more powerful it is also getting power hungry & hot, so it makes sense to find ways to optimise the existing technology.

That Cell processor is the biggest joke of all!

 

[Zeeshan Quireshi]

That Cell processor is the biggest joke of all!

It's optimized for Streaming Floating-Point Calculations and in that it can whoop the ass of the Xbox 360 CPU .

But Reality is , that hardly 0.05% of all game calculations are Streaming Floating Point , so the 360 Fares better in the Real-World Scenario !

 

[krazzy]

PS3 doesn't even uses Blu Ray for games.

Yes it does. All PS3 games come on Blu-Ray Discs, the reason why they are so expensive.

 

[faraaz]

I love this so much cuz all those loser Xbox fanboys must be feeling reeeeally stupid right now to actually spend money to buy an external attachment for the 360 just to play a dead format. He he...in the PS3's case even if Bluray had lost out, atleast you wouldnt have paid extra SEPARATELY to buy a Bluray player. If the cost is factored into purchase price, that's not really the same thing.

Ha ha...I love it when tech trends go my way!
