French national HD channels first to implement Dolby Digital Plus {Engadget HD}
Nov 2nd 2008 10:22AM By December 2008? Really that soon? That seems like a very close deadline to require TVs to add codec support.
If so, huzzah I guess. I imagine that as manufacturers add this for the French, it'll trickle into all sets just cuz.
Best Buy's pushing Blu-ray to the front {Engadget HD}
Feb 11th 2008 4:44PM Anyone who has been in Best Buy knows this is pretty much already the case. You can't turn around with seeing something Blu-ray, while HD DVD is quarantined to a small little generic section.

Bungie picks PQ over resolution for Halo 3 {Engadget HD}
Oct 9th 2007 12:53PM If you consider 720p to be the minimum for HD, then the 640p that Halo 3 runs at would be considered 80% of HD. (since 1152x640 gives you 80% of the pixels that 1280x720 gives you)
For comparison: 480p gives 37.5% the pixels of 720p, and 720p only gives 44.4% of the pixelx of 1080p (although twice as fast FPS-wise, assuming the game is running at a full 60 and 30fps respectively).
Personally, I think the 640p is close enough to HD. People need to chill out. How many people would have known at all if no one told them?
