Major Nelson is reporting that Microsoft has lowered the MSRP on its 360 HD DVD from 179.99 to 129.99. This is an awesome deal. I used the Xbox HD DVD player until I replaced it with the much quiter A30 in November. The beauty of this drive is that it connects via USB so you can plug it into your PC and it should be recognized by Windows XP and Windows Vista. With the HD plug-in from Nero you can watch HD DVDs on your PC. I have this baby hooked up to my PC (Vista 64bit) and love it. I wish it had rewrite capabilities though. Regardless, its a nice addition to a PC, and if you are new to the market, its a nice addition to a living room. If you dont have a 360 here is a good opportunity to really upgrade that home entertaiment system with a kick-ass gaming rig, HD player and $125 in free movies.

If you do get a 360, pick up Project Gotham Racing 4.
