Product Description: You've experienced next-gen gaming on Xbox 360™ … now experience next-gen DVD movies with HD DVD. The Xbox 360 HD DVD Player is the most affordable way to jump into the next generation of DVD technology, along with the flexibility to enter when you are ready. Just plug Xbox 360 HD DVD Player into Xbox 360 and enjoy the ultimate home theater experience with more clarity and detail than broadcast, cable or satellite HD. Feed your HDTV the high definition content it craves with HD DVD on Xbox 360! Includes the movie King Kong on HD-DVD. Xbox 360 HD-DVD requires a Xbox 360 game console. This is not a stand-alone HD-DVD player.
Works with vista! I added a bluray disc player to my computer and it came with software for HD DVD also. Just out of curiosity, I plugged in the Xbox HD DVD player and Vista recognized it. I didnt need any thing else to set it up. I popped in transformers (the HD DVD version), and it worked flawlessly. So it is kind of like a two in one player.
Xbox 360 HD DVD For anyone with an Xbox 360, this HD DVD player is a must-have! I use it to watch DVDs while my wife watches regular tv. And this unit is CHEAP! Get one before they are no longer available as Microsoft discontinued them.
Awsome!!! This HD DVD player is great!! I have one and recently purchased one for my brother and we are both very pleased! I've noticed it even up-converts some of the newer standard DVDs as well. The only down is that is hard to find HD DVDs now since the Blu-ray take over because it seems the only way to purchase HD DVDs are by searching online at [...] sites. Im going to wait until the next gen console to start purchasing Blu-ray discs because Microsoft recently received rights to place the Blu-ray into their next X-Box 720 and with rumors have it, the HD DVD player will be compatable with the new X-Box 720 so we'll have the best of both worlds! Plus since Blu-ray took over you purchase the HD DVDs at almost the same price for a standard DVD! I highly recommend this product!
Does what it should It is a better DVD player than the 360's OEM drive. It does what it should, not sure how it is still so expensive, but it does what it should.
Microsoft makes garbage? Who knew. . . I purchased a new 360 HD DVD player a month and 10 days ago and it stands as a doorstop today. Microsoft refuses to provide the warranty work on it so I have an ag complaint on them over it. These devices have a very high defect rate, similar to the first generation of the 360 system. Microsoft has discontinued it and doesn't want to service them anymore. Their customer service is provided by the notorious collections agency, NCO, which spells customer service nightmare. Hopefully if you buy one of these, it will not become a pricey paperweight like mine has.
