Only wish i had bought more from amazon.de, £13 each was a crazy price! My collection is currently 15 and have 8 more coming (load of £4.43 ones from the hut)! Love the remote that it illuminates, really cool!

Nice one! But I have loads of non HD DVD's atm, so I don't want to put them to waste really! Just completed Quentin Tarantino's film collection

I would get one in a flash if they had The Wire on HD but it's not out yet, hopefully they'll be bringing it out on blueray before too long. Best show ever made, believe.
I find it a bit weird how they don't have Lost on HD either though...

Re: xbox 360 hd dvd drive now £24.99


Lost is out on Blu-ray, so it wont be on HD-DVD

People keep telling me to watch Hero;s may have to invest in it!

Re: xbox 360 hd dvd drive now £24.99


i've seen the HD DVD player for £19.99 at gamestation,but HD DVDS are surely going to be out of stock in most places soon so isnt it a waste buying this stuff?

Re: xbox 360 hd dvd drive now £24.99


My collection is now at 22, latest one being the heroes box set. I only want planet earth and the transformers now, just waiting for the them at the right price...but £15 for planet earth atm is tempting! £10 for transformers just isnt quite right yet...

Only downside is the drive is a little noisey when combined with the 360 fan, doesnt bother me much though as im far enough away not to be bothered and my central speaker drowns out most of the noise.
