"6 times the wow"

And that there is a scientific fact!

MMaRsu · Oct 10, 2006

Very cool commercial!

Karma Kramer · Oct 10, 2006

haha KARAZY!

Cold-Steel · Oct 10, 2006

That's not a bad commercial at all.

HocusPocus · Oct 10, 2006

Makes me want to buy one.

lachesis · Oct 10, 2006

I like it. I think I might dulge into this until they come out with really nice HD-DVD player and Blu-Ray players.

I get it but it doesn't make me want it.

Treo360 · Oct 10, 2006

Nice, however I wished the add-on was a bit smaller.

Alcibiades · Oct 10, 2006

watched it a second time and noticed how HUGE the remote controller was

:lol

Kung Fu Jedi · Oct 10, 2006

I thought that commercial was lame as hell. Does nothing for me.

Nice shot of the 360 and the drive at the end though.

sevenchaos · Oct 10, 2006

Meh. I still don't think its worth the price as much as I want to watch Serenity in full HD.

LJ11 · Oct 10, 2006

I saw those guys performing on the street near The Plaza Hotel.:lol :lol :lol

Wario64 · Oct 10, 2006

I did not say wow.

Wollan · Oct 10, 2006

That was actually pretty good.

GhaleonEB · Oct 10, 2006

I "got it" after the six guys were dancing for ten seconds. Shorter, snappier would have been better. But still not bad.

teepo · Oct 10, 2006

why do i have a feeling people are going to think the hddvd drive is a smaller and slimmer version of the 360 because of this advertisement?

Smokey · Oct 10, 2006

Yeah it could've been made shorter, but that was still a pretty good commercial.

It def. catches your eye, and that was a pretty cool pic of the system at the end w/ the HD-DVD player.

Owzers · Oct 10, 2006

I like the commercial and I'm pretty interested in the HD-DVD add-on but....I think my 360 is too loud to have on while watching a movie to really enjoy it.

ypo · Oct 10, 2006

Is Microsoft saying something about DVD?

Do you watch movies with the volume turned down?

My 360 doesn't make hardly any noise at all unless it's spinning a game DVD.

It's saying that X360 games lack the 6 wows

:lol I was thinking the same thing.

Oh no! The games don't lack the wows. They just lack the storage for six of 'em!

That's probably the universal remote control, as opposed to the launch 360 chibi unit.

castle007 · Oct 10, 2006

terrible commercial. What were they thinking???

Maybe he watches other stuff than material from Jerry Bruckheimer.

Yeah that's the same universal remote they've been selling over the last year.

I picked up one of those at launch. Nothing really all that universal about it though. It'll only control your TV and Xbox 360 - no support for any stereo receiver.

Oh... and its not that big. Its maybe 1 inch longer than the Sony remote for my A/V receiver.

As for the commercial, I think its great. Makes the point in a very visual style. Its kind of hard to do a commercial advertising HD-DVD or Blu-Ray since most people will not be able to see their native resolutions on their TV.

:lol :lol :lol excellent point.

Ontopic: commercial does nothing for me but I can see why it would work for the majority. Not as great as the Jump In campaign though.

What about those dramatic moments, when everything goes silent?

doesn't say how loud it is. Right now, thats my only concern. My Toshiba HD-A1 is near silent when watching HDDVD, as is the 360 when watching SDDVD. But its noisy when using MCE stuff or just in the dash.

If the HDDVD add on is silent-ish, I'll sell my A1, buy a 360 add on and use the spare change to pay for my Wii

Zombie James · Oct 10, 2006

settle down..they've got a pill for what you've got.

DenogginizerOS · Oct 10, 2006

I will be buying an HD-DVD player for my X360. This commercial has NOTHING to do with that decision.

Sgt. Killjoy · Oct 10, 2006

ill buy an HD DVD if they put games on it

Seriously, you should change it, you know?
You have already ruined it for me, but you can avoid ruining it for others.

Nope, but movies have a lot of quiet parts which I don't like to hear loud fan noises during.
