Casino Royale on Blu-ray


I don't know why I didn't tell you about Casino Royale on Blu-ray after I watched it because it was just amazing. I never saw it in the theaters, but I was told by everyone, but 2 people I know, that it was awesome. After I read that it was going to be one of the best movies to get on Blu-ray, I went and got it. I thought that The Departed looked good, but I have to say that this movie was incredible. How many more adjectives do I have to drop for you to get what I am saying. Just get a Blu-ray player already and order this movie over at Amazon. One more thing, Casino Royale on Blu-ray is the first Blu-ray movie to sell 100,000 copies and it only took 9 months for the new format to have such an achiever since it took 11 months for Air Force One to sell that many copies back in 1998 after the DVD format was born. Sorry HD-DVD, you are the weakest link and you biggest backer doesn't even believe in you by not offering a HD-DVD player in their new Xbox 360 Elite.

Grand Theft Auto IV


Here is the first look at Grand Theft Auto IV set to go on sale October 16, 2007. This will be the first time that this series will be released on a console other than a Playstation brand. I have to say that GTA 3 on the PS2 was the reason I got hooked on video games after my SNES days. The thing that I wasn't so fond of was the graphics, but the Xbox versions looked so much nicer. I can't wait for this game to come out for the Xbox 360, but it is scheduled to come out on the PS3 at the same time. I don't know about you but I am excited and can't wait after seeing the trailer. If you do have a 360, go to the marketplace and download the free HD trailer.

It's official, Microsoft announced the Xbox 360 Elite tonight. The rumors have been flowing for weeks and everyone was trying to figure out if it was going to be an Aprils fools, but MS delivered the goods. The Elite adds a 120 GB Hard Drive, HDMI output with a HDMI cable. It will go on sale April 29 for the price of $479. The console, controller, headset are all in black and looks real slick. I see lots of 360's ending up on eBay; I know mine will be sold sometime.
