There are a number of reasons why the new high definition DVD formats have already failed according to Clint DeBoer over at Audioholics.com. Here are 10 reasons HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc will never turn into the dominant formats for digital media viewing.
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.

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.
I have a Samsung HDTV, and I personally do not care about HD-DVD or Blu-Ray. I have hundreds of DVD movies and they look fine.
But its a more advanced system because it has Bluray!!!!!
Sorry, this is one more reason that doesn't support or justify buying a PS3. More money, basically same graphics, less exclusive titles and now the much promoted Blu ray isn't likel;y to push sales to the adverage consumer (Walmart) family.
Sony is in Deep deep trouble!!!

Nuff said
just one hd format HD-DVD or Blu-Ray then i reckon the launch and the future years would be amazingly successful for the world of HD. But 2 head-to-head, not offering anything substantially different to the other, is a recipe for disaster...
