The 360 HD DVD player may not be available just yet, but you can get some breathing room on everyone else this Xmas by pre-ordering yours today. Amazon has it only $199 with a release date of November 7. Goes great with the recent 360 update that enabled 1080p, but broke 360s, then was re-released.

I am certainly not getting one of those pieces of junk. Hear me out. This thing costs 200$US and it only plays protected HD DVDs and it wont even play HD-DVD games! That's right, this drive will not make the playing of xbox360 HD-DVD games possible. Microsoft is breaking my balls, what's next?
