I personally don't like blueray. I saw it on my friends 52" HDTV, I hate how to colors blur like that.

I got the elite and except for the space it isn't any better then the regular, non core, system; except for the color because it looks badass in black.

As for the blu-ray I have watched countless movies on my TV and have never experienced bad quality, it is actually better than DVDs in all the movies I have viewed it in both formats.

That gives me an idea.

If they were ever going to make a new one, it should be the the Xbox 1337!

You see Xtr3me. You complain about me ranting about the 360 and PS3 when you do the same thing! Look at this! PS3's Blu-Ray is a commercial failure as of today, the future is looking bad for the Blu-Ray. Why would Microsoft want to buy a failure similar to Sony's "OMG REVOLUTIONARY FAILURES WHATZ?!" mini-disks? Hah, most of you don't even remember the mini-disks because they were so bad.

P.S. Blu-Ray is patented by Sony. There is no way the 360 can get the Blu-Ray.

Well, I dunno b/c I don't like the graphics too much. It looks too "anime-ish" and I don't like the style.

LOL!

XBOX Elite looks better than PS3 imo too xD

and w/e that blu-ray thing is... I've never heard of it or do I care

I just want to play games, and XBOX is cheaper right now, so I want it for the summer.
