Game consoles / DVD players

Vagabond · August 29th, 2009, 09:37 AM

I read/heard that some of the game consoles are BluyRay DVD players. Is that true and are they any worse the a dedicated BlueRay player? Asking for I would buy a game console and forgo the BlueRay DVD player and not have two units.

PS3 has a blueray player built in, xbox 360 has a HD DVD add on, the WII can play just regular DVDs

ps3 also plays regular dvds - playback for me from blu ray and dvd is spot on.

PS3 can do Blu-Ray, DVD, and CD out of the box.

X360 can do DVD and CD as well as HD-DVD if you want to fork over the cash for a dead format.

Wii can't do jack shit unless you mod it, and that will void your warranty.

I thought the new firmware from nintendo allowed it to have DVD playback?
