I never bought one, but I was on the brink of getting one. I waited out to see which format would win, and Blu-Ray obviously won. Although, HD DVDs still could've been used for games, because the format allows for up to 15 GB of storage, almost double of that of the current DL DVDs the Xbox 360 used at the time. But because Blu-Ray can store up to 50 GB of data, it's obviously a lot better than current DVD technology.
