sneek Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 :lol Yeah i noticed that... i don't even see the point of the duel layer releases let alone a stupid oversized release like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Ice.Age.2.The.Meltdown.1080p.BluRay.DTS.x264-ESiR.mkv Underworld.Evolution.1080p.BluRay.x264-ESiR.mkv Got a few 720p rips also. Fits on a dual layer DVD, 8 gig ish..... I can't possibly see how it can look any better than this. Seriously, the rip looks A. Would be great if there was a hard disk based player out there that could play these files at 1080p. Ahhh xbox 360 in the future....... My desktop native res is 1920x1200, it's weird opening a video file and it natively takes up the whole screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XiTaU Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I think it is a bit extreme but if you 1. cbf 2. have the bandwidth 3. have the hdd space i guess why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Adsl2 + i can bf + i have the HDD space Seriously though, it is much much better to watch high res stuff than normal res stuff, makes the purchase of a high def tellie totally worth it. My stupid fucking CUNT of a video card wont display on my tellie though, im guessing tits that new DRM tech shit :( 77800gtx can ggf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZXR Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I was watching the X-Men movie on a Blu-Ray player that was hooked up to a $18000 65" plasma and all I can say is WOW! Even standing about a meter away it didn't look bad or blocky. Totally blown away by the quality but still can't justify spending the cash on a player or PS3 at the moment. -ZXR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
