| Pointless as an accessory. It's about as silly as adding a proper DVD drive to the GameCube or something.
It will have limited support by games since it's an accessory that do not provide the same significant boost CD-Rom drive provided 16-bit console and their 2 meg cartridges and people will want to buy a proper drive to watch movies. A very low price tag compared to dedicated drives could be an asset though.
Anyway that HD-DVD drive should have been in the Xbox 360 from the get go to make it a true HD generation machine. But is the market ready for a true HD machine and the cost it implies? We get to know that in november I guess. |
