SACD was released when CD was as the top of its game. Everyone owned 100s of CDs, everyone loved CDs and the sound quality of CD was perfectly good enough for 99.9 percent of the population. So Sony released the slightly better and completely incompatible Super-Audio CD - the Blu-ray of the music scene. It is now a dead format, as is its rival DVD-Audio. Everyone was happy with what they already had.
Now, all Sony needs to do is bin that awful, pointless, half-finished HD movie format they're trying to force onto an unwilling world in the same way.

A site about games and game paraphernalia and how nothing's as good as we remember it, probably because we used to inhabit a FANTASY WORLD.

It came with the template. Maybe in 2014 we'll jump on board the Twitter train and put that in here. Or a radio. That'd be nice.
My prediction:The PS3 will be the system to own for Christmas... of 2006.
Too bad that compared to the budget PS3 the 360 looks like a steal now, plus the 360 also plays videogames. Also, the Wii plays videogames and costs less than that again.
This PS3 will be the system to own for Christmas.... of 2006.
I remember SACD. My dad asked about it, I told him it's by Sony and he changed his mind.
awghnyc - Awgh, NYC! If only I'd gotten this one on September 11th.
And hahahaha Cunzy11, another Tekken 6 reference.

this article is the first time i've ever heard of dvd-audio. it has become extinct before i even knew it was alive."
The funeral was simple, there were few mourners.
As far as I was aware, the main "attraction" of SACD and DVD-A was surround sound (4.1/5.1) music. Which, apart from anything, required music to be recorded/mixed appropriately.
You might have accidentally bought an SACD, there were a few titles released on hybrid SACD/CD. Think the biggest selling one was Dark Side of the Moon.

Y'know, since bashing the guy at the top is funny.
Well, it SHOULD be.
On paper.
Didn't this site used to have something to do with Sega..?
Something stupid that has been said here a million times before and was as stupid at time one as at time one million.

If you were involved in World War 2 would you quit killing Nazis the minute they started to lose just because you didn't think it was as fun anymore? UKR isn't about just knocking first place. UKR is about erasing Sony completely from history. Then I imagine they'll start on Nintendo. Then finally Microsoft. Then everyone will be as dead as Sega and we can stop crying ourselves to sleep.
