blue ray is sony's...sure other companies support it but it is not their system/product...that's like saying xbox isn't MS but also EA and ubisoft...or Camery isn't just Toyota..but exon and shell and the tire company etc.
MS said xbox was not suppose to be profitable (they took huge loss on price when it 1st came out)...it was to get knowledge of the gaming world and get xbox live started and to let consumer know MS can make a game system...so if MS turns a profit on xbox2 and xbox3 etc...then xbox 1 was not a failure.
how did you work at best buy and not know of the sega dreamcast...it was a better system then ps2 but after genisis sega never released a games system at a good time. I was playing my brother nfk 2k series over phone on dreamcast before xbox was even out...i think ign still has a dreamcast area if you care to read about it.
I don't know if wb is favoring 1 over the other..but total sales tells us just that which sold more...the HD DVD haveing more features then BD and some titles only out on HD DVD could lead some to think they favore HD DVD a little. With that VP quiting...We might hear something at CEDIA.
