Zune looks like crap, it really looks like a big screen surrounded by a cheap plastic case. And it's made by microsoft so it's definitely NOT going to have bugs in it, right?

Just if it's not noticeable for the so called eagle eye testers that tried to notice a difference makes no impact into changing my judgment that it is better. Life is about the details. The subtle differences in a movie watching experience change the way you react to it, and just because you consciously don't notice it doesn't mean that it doesn't have an effect on you. Anyone who sees an object in their peripheral can be reminded of an event related to it without thinking about it. I'm sick of being told that the advancement of consumer technology is unnecessary and I don't think that holding back a new technology that will immerse the viewer into a more lifelike scene could possibly be something to pass up. I mean look at audio; 5.1 sound is a great feature that I can't stand to lose. Passing on 1080p is really slowing down the switch for all media into greater formats and just accepting less than we deserve. I for one am not waiting anymore for technology that should already be mainstream.

that's because the current next-gen titles only take advantadge of the sharper picture. The raised the pixel count and detail level in all their games, but left out photorealistic effects, like small amounts of motion blurring, loss of sharpness on depth, and color spill. There are a lot of reasons why the crisp video displayed looks so unrealistic. Hopefully next gen games bring in greater lifelikeness to the games we play because the higher definition the more we can see the faults.
