According to Xbox marketeer John Porcaro\’s gamerscore blog, Microsoft is planing to withdraw from HD DVD following recent decisions made by Toshiba, Hollywood studios and retailers. \”Xbox will no longer manufacture new HD DVD players for the Xbox 360, but we will continue to provide standard product and warranty support for all Xbox 360 HD DVD Players in the market.\” said Porcaro. Microsoft have stated that they do not believe this decision will have any material impact on the Xbox 360 platform.
