PX360 Podcast: DVD9 & The 360 July Decline
by Joel Clausen
Sony fanboys relish any negative news regarding Microsoft and the Xbox 360. It is apparent the July NPD numbers will only provide them with additional fallacious ammunition. Why will MS see a decrease in units sold and will the PS3 surpass the 360 in unit sales? All questions answered with the a simple phrase not present in the PS3 / Sony fanboy lexicon, good video games.
Epic has suggested the current disc format utilized by the Xbox 360, DVD9, does not have the necessary storage capacity to reproduce all maps on the ported UT3. Although a complex issue, we discuss this topic at length and speak of the DVD9's potential and whether MS should forgo DVD9 in favor of a larger, more robust format such as HD DVD.
Rumors are circulating once again which has become the new industry norm. It is said MS will phase out the Core 360, repackage it, add HDMI, a 256MB memory card, wireless controller, and 5 Arcade titles to boot. This rumored revised Core 360 will be christened the "Xbox Arcade: Just Play" package. Too little too late? We debate the details.
