Well this thread was a load of hot air. :w00t:

Im just glad I resisted criticising......erm yes.  Moving on.

Yep I guess you do have to be careful lest you become the target of a big angry paragraph full of broken English and spelling mistakes....   -)

I just got tired of seeing something I knew to be wrong being spammed across several threads.  This forum has good info on it and if we keep speculation from being declared as fact it stays that way.

I am however curious who the source was...  Surely you can tell us now since he/she/it was clearly talking rubbish.

LOL what happened to nexus inside knowledge  :rofl:

Zzz, These people are paid to lie
It will not be the first in any company and for the last 3 things MS saying they were not doing it, In fact as other articles on the web have said and pointed out MS denied the HD-DVD player right up to 2 weeks before it was announced.
Bestbuy has sent emails to its stores in regard to coming products and have the 360 blu ray player listed as an example (this week)

Keep the bashing at me going because I will childishly if you will want apologies If I am wrong I will do the same

SteveF

oh well, shall we just drop this thread now - I dont really care if youre right or wrong anymore.  Just chill with the stating things as fact plx.

edit: I dont think people are childishly bashing you.  I think you are just a bit delicate when someone disagrees with you.  They are two very different things.
IT WILL HAPPEN!

Only 2 real facts have actually emerged out of this thread.

1. HD-DVD has failes.
2. The comments were made by Aaron Greenberg, group product manager for Xbox 360.  Specifically denying any intention to even work on a BR drive at this point in time.  Whether he is lying I dont care.  The horses mouth has spoken.

A giant Ford Mondeo made of lego is going to crash into Vienna from outer space in about 3 weeks time.  Its gonna happen.  Its all over the interarz web because I want it to happen.

Moving on to more important matters.....
