    If I buy a Blu-ray player will I need to upgrade other stuff?

    Thanks Gene. I thought I'd still get DD & DTS, but wanted to be sure. That's really 'good enough' for me for right now until I can do a big time upgrade of some stuff. As for the sub, I have no idea how low it should go. I don't really like or dislike it, I got it used from a HTF member a...

    If I buy a Blu-ray player will I need to upgrade other stuff?

    Hi all, It's probably been 4 or 5 years since I posted (most of my stuff is that old too). I'm thinking about getting a Panny BD60, but wondered what else I'll need to upgrade if anything. Here's my gear... TV: LG42LH40 42" 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV Receiver: Pioneer VSX-709S Speakers: Front; B&W...

    THE WIZARD OF OZ: 2 and 3-Disc on October 25th, 2005

    This will be the third time for me buying Oz on DVD and I can't wait to get my hands on the three disc set. Looks like Warner is doing it up right.

    When is Revenge of the SIth going to be given a release date for the PSP?

    I read somewhere it was to come out when the GBA & DS versions do, but can't remember where I saw it.

    X-Box vs. PS2

    Hope you don't mind me asking in your thread Robert. I've had an XBox, which I love, for 3 years & a GC for about as long. Never did get a PS2. I'm thinking I probably need one though. Seems there are lots of RPG's I'd like to try & the new God of War looks killer. I've never owned any Sony...

    What did you pickup for PSP?

    Are there any strategy games you would say it compares to? Is it turn based or real time? Trying to get a handle on what game play is like exactly. I've heard some folks bought it thinking it was a shooter (not reading obviously) & were pissed to find out it wasn't.

    I don't think it'll flop. They are expensive, but a lot of parents seem to have no problem shelling out $300+ for an iPod for thier kids. Some A+ list titles wouldn't hurt sales though. GTA, GT4m & Final Fantasy will help sales I'm sure.

    Warning: PSP may cause temporary loss of vision

    Yep, that'll happen when you concentrate on something like Lumines for that long. My eyes are blurry right now from playing it.

    The Best portable game unit of all.

    This is kinda where I'm at with the DS too. Can't convince myself I need one to replace my SP. :)

    AFAIK there is no difference. There is a difference in the Pro vs non pro sticks that being read times.

    Some day soon I think we'll see such devices. A Sony PSP/Clie/Phone would be cool.

    What did you pickup for PSP?

    I'm sure Grand Theft Auto in May will sell a few units. I've never played a GTA game, but they seem to be really popular with a lot of folks. There's also the Final Fantasy game that's coming.

    The 1GB sticks from SanDisk have an MSRP of $150 & can be purchased directly from the mfg for that price. I've seen folks mention getting them on eBay for around $110 or so. They're $120 from someplace like buy.com
