THIS....IS....BLUUU RAYYY!!!!It's official. Well not totally official. But it's getting pretty close to being technically official. Blu-ray is getting closer and closer and closer to kicking HD-DVD's hiney out the door for good. Wal-Mart, yes Wal-Mart, otherwise known as Wally World, has announced that they will phase HD-DVD's out of their Wal-Mart and Sams Club stores over the next month. Here's a quote that I got from destructoid.com:
"We've listened to our customers, who are showing a clear preference toward Blu-ray products and movies with their purchases," said Gary Severson, senior vice president, Home Entertainment, Wal-Mart, U.S. "With the customers best interest in all we do, we wanted to share our decision and time-line with them as soon as possible, knowing it will help simplify their purchase decision, increase selection, and increase adoption long term."
Long term eh? I'm glad that I got a PlayStation 3 and actually risked buying blu-ray movies that may have been phased out and not usable on any other systems in the future except my PS3. But, looks like I made a good decision, and looks like Sony is genius. Cause all those cool Blu-Ray commercials we see in Target actually worked. Wait, Target isn't Wal-Mart, but you all know what I mean.
