Microsoft used the HD-DVD press event at this years CES to make it clear that they are fully behind HD-DVD.
They will continue to sell the XBOX 360 HD-DVD add-on drive for $199.99. They will also continue to include the remote and "King Kong." They also said they had sold 10.4 million consoles worldwide to date...
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.
The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.
Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.
Dawn of The First Day
-72 Hours Remain-
Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.
Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.
your worst nightmare is about to come true. HD-DVD player prices are about to drop even further below those of Blu Ray players.
It's just ashame Blu Ray is killing HD-DVD lol ahhahahahahahahh!

This is a suprise Ms supporting a sinking ship, i mean who would have expected this after what they done to Xbox lol haha.
i dont think hd dvd will do too well, but at the same time i truely dont see bluray being the next big thing....im not supporting either at this point, anyway it isnt a battle between sony and microsoft its a battle between toshiba and sony
