360 uses normal DVDs (well, duel layer). The HD-DVD addon wasn't used for games at all, and MS stated from the very start they would never make games that needed the addon. As for abandoning it, well lazy, what did you expect MS to do when Toshiba decided not to MAKE them any more? That is, when the vast number of all the major movie houses started going Blu-Ray exclusive and various stores stoppes stocking HD DVD entirely, to the point where Toshiba just said "we're done"? How could you possibly refer to that as MS "selling out"?
You misread my entire post :D MS didnt sellout, Toshiba did. If Sony's price was right. Or if the circumstances were diff, it was a question of neither format making any large dent in the market.
