Rumor: 360 HD DVD Players Now Cheaper?

What? It's already over? Over at Cheapassgamer.com, folks are posting that the Xbox 360 HD DVD player is being marked down at Walmart to US $130 from its retail price of $199.99. What's more, apparently Walmart has cleared out its HD DVD players. Reader superatt sends word that The New York Post reports that HD DVD is being outsold by Blu-ray — Since the PS3 went on sale, Blu-ray sales have jumped to nearly three times that of HD DVD. Says Fox Home Entertainment's Steve Feldstein:

The format war is in its final phase... It's never been a question of if Blu-ray will pass HD DVD, but a matter of when.

Some format war!
