Geez, where do you live???

$400 FOR A DVD PLAYER!?!?!?!?

Here in the good ol\' U S of A, you can get one for $100.
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

By the way, isn\'t this topic in the wrong forum?

My thoughts exactly :)

I bought my PS2 mainly because I wanted a DVD Player-I plan to use it as a DVD Player 75% of the time and for games 25% of the time.

I will not buy another DVD Player;

-That\'s why I bought the PS2 in the first place.
-Sony has a good reputation for DVD Players and I have had NO PROBLEMS with mine (knock on wood...)

I have SONYs standalone player and it kicks ass few months later I bought PS2 and it... It, kicks ass. And now I am kicking myself in the ass because I have two DVD players !!! This is something that never should of happen to me !!! But still, standalone DVD has a little better contrast (watch Pitch Black on standalone and PS2 DVD player and you will see what I mean) !!!

I have a dvd player and will be getting a new one this summer.  Toshiba has a new dvd player coming out this summer that will include DVD-Audio and progressive scan for under $400, most DVD-Audio dvd players are around $1000 right now.  I also like the picture of my stand alone better than the PS2.

I already have a DVD player.
It seems as if the people [casual gamers] that we consider to know absolutely nothing are the ones that actually know the most important thing: Name brands don\'t make the console, games do.

This should be in Off-Topic, so that\'s where it is headed.
I had a Magnavox player for three years almost, but I sold it when I got the PS2.

I have a standalone DVD player, and my Psx2 is only used for its DVD capabilities when I\'m in my room, and someone is using the entertainment system, or I just feel like chillin in my room.  Its more of a convience for me.
