Hey all,

gamestation are selling the HD player new with 2 HD DVD's for 24.99 their selling the DVD's 14.99 each on their own.

is it worth investing in one or will HD DVD's be killed off soon??

HD DVD is dead...

This is why they are cheap, surely.

its dead,however if your happy to make use of it in the meantime...........
then you get HD films for pennys!
matrix boxset for under £30
5 harry potter films for under £25
etc etc
if like me you have no interest in blowing big money on blueray just now then make hay for now
hell they still sell betamax on ebay for more than i paid for my HD DVD drive
£13 posted from germany if you want to know

have seen some rumours of companys considering releases on HD DVD even still with an installed userbase

i dont think its worth it mate, toshiba and microsoft have already announced that theyre stopping production and all the companies are going exclusive to blu-ray now, waste of money

Might be worth it though, why pay £22 for a film on BluRay when it may be possible to get it for £12!!

I'd say go for it, when they're gone, they're gone!!

not even £12,plenty of sub £5 HD dvd's around
eg lovefilm are doing them for under £5 posted
http://shop.lovefilm.com/lovefilm/hd-dvd.dept

shop around and buy cheap for now
then go blue ray when the costs drop

Thats exactly what i'm doing mate, buying them up cheap - why not? it's still a high def film, I can still watch it... as soon as / if they ever make a blu-ray add on for the 360, then i'll start buying them instead.

Doesnt matter what format the film is it, its still high resolution either way

And if it costs £5 instead of £25 even better!

heres one

heroes S1 dvd boxset about £30 for dvd
on HD DVD its £12.99
so if you own a 360 you could(if you shop about) get the hd dvd drive and boxset for your £30

Custard - where did you get your drive from?

i got mine from amazon germany
need to keep an eye out
gamestation often sells em cheap
mine was £13 so was uber cheap

i'll add this here

so i got a copy of superman returns on HD DVD
now on the back it has the normal not for resale rental label
except it says 'for resale/rental'
very strange,no?

they still upscale normal dvd's aswell so not a total dead machine.

just try and get it all in one
