    Xbox 360 may offer HD-DVD support.....sort of

    According to statements made by Bill Gates in Japan, the 360 may incorporate an HD-DVD drive eventually into its hardware specs. However, in order to meet this fall's launch date, the 360 will be equipped with regular DVD-ROM drives initially, and upon their (HD-DVD drive) availability, will be...

    Sony announces PS3 GPU

    NVIDIA and SCEI confirm next-gen graphics chip I have to say that I'm somewhat surprised, after the falling out between nVidia and Microsoft. With ATI collaborating with MS, and presumably with Nintendo in their next console, I wondered if nVidia would have any stake in the next generation of...

    Kids In The Hall Season 2 - out early?

    Does anyone know if the release date was moved up a week, or did my Best Buy mistakenly stock the shelves earlier than they should have? I picked it up this morning for $38.99. If it turns out to be cheaper next week, I'll just price match the difference.

    Output PVR recordings to a PC?

    In my research of Time Warner's DVR unit (8000), one of the diagrams on their website state that the IE 1344 jacks at the rear of the unit are not functional at this time, therefore, it cannot output DVR recordings to a PC. Do TiVo or ReplayTV units offer this functionality? There are some...
