NEW VIDEO!! The Ridiculous History of the Xbox 360 HD DVD Drive (and the Blu-ray War) | Past Mortem [SSFF]
🕑 Added 2019-09-23 05:17:30 +0000 UTCHi guys!
Oh my gosh, I am really excited for you guys to watch this one. So after we made our video on Netflix's dealings with the Xbox 360 (which was itself a spin-off of our upcoming Kinect video), I started to get obsessed with the physical media war that directly precipitated it: Blu-ray vs HD DVD. This is the story of how Microsoft tricked Sony into betting on the wrong format, all in the service of winning the war for the living room.
This is also one of the most challenging videos we've made in a long time. It's actually about a week late! In the meantime, we've been making another Doom Ports video, and I'm expecting that one to be uploaded by Thursday? Hopefully??
Anyways, talk to you guys soon! Oh! and if anyone is on the east coast, Derek will be at Retro World in Connecticut this weekend. Hope to see you there!

I have a copy of A Clockwork Orange on HD DVD, despite not owning a HD DVD player. I just like the movie.
