Promised by Sony, attainable by few displays, and argued about all over the Internet, 1080p is something that doesn't affect many television owners while remaining a major sticking point in the current console wars. Microsoft gave the 360 the ability to run games in 1080p in the October firmware update...' EA and Sega are both producing games which will render on the 360 in 1080p. Does this change the playing field for the next generation of console games?

rwven writes: Prominent adult movie producer Digital Playground says it is forced to use HD DVD instead of Blu-ray, because Sony will not allow XXX-rated movies to be released on Blu-ray. It appears as though Sony hasn't learned anything since the days of Betamax. While plenty of people may agree (or disagree) with Sony's decision on a personal level, it's almost undeniable that the format which is adopted by the pornography industry is the format which will survive, regardless of technical superiority.
