After watching Rush Hour 3, which was like an overstretched lolcat, I decided to pay my local gamestop a visit to see if they had the new premiums with HDMI. Here is the transcript of the conversation below.
Me: Hey, do you have the Premiums with the hdmi?
GT: Those are called the elites. They are right there.
ME: No, I mean the premiums, *points*, with hdmi.
GT: They're not making them yet till like later.
ME: They're making them now, I've seen pictures of them online.
GT: No, they're not. You got it wrong.
ME: Nowai.
GT: Let me explain, they're making the elites into premiums, and dropping the core.
ME: WHAA..
GT: Microsoft told me they're making the elites into premiums, and later they're releasing xbox ultimate.
ME: WTF is that?
GT: It's the xbox 360 that has a hdmi, and a HD-DVD drive to compete with blu-ray.
ME: Are they putting HD-DVD games on it?
GT: Yeah, Microsoft is competing against Blu-ray.
ME: Orly, what about the 9 million people that bought 360 last year. They're fucked! lol
GT: No, they're fine.
ME: The 360 can't play HD-DVD right now.
GT: Well it could, sort of. The xbox ultimate and the HD-DVD drive just makes it more HD.
ME: ...
ME: ...
ME: ...
ME: Uh, so who do you think will win the war.
GT: Blu-ray or HD-DVD, too early to tell.
ME: Not that one. The other one.
GT: Uh, 360 man.
ME: The Wii is kicking it's ass right now.
GT: Well, you see, the wii is in another market by itself on the side.
ME: It's new-gen.
GT: Yeah.
ME: It's nice talking to you. I tell my forum about xbox ultimate.
GT: Peace out.
Heard here first, XBOX ULTIMATE with HD-DVD coming out in 2008. More HD than ever before!
Edit: It might be true, but I don't think the employee knew the jest of what he was told.
