Almost the entire past month Bluray has been running ads with major retailers for select titles being Buy one Get one free
I would think that this has been and will be (ads still running now with even more titles) a bigger factor in the sales numbers than the number of released titles
If HD had the same type of promotion, I would be curious to see if BD would still come out ahead
This is really nothing new, the function already exists in every 360 console. It just looks like Halo 3 will just be making it easier to access.
If the game allows you to hilight the player and bring up their profile, there will be a mute option on the list. Choose that, and you are done with all of the annoyances.
If you cannot pull up the player gamer profile from the game itsself: simply hit the "X" button on the center of the controller, bring up the recent players list, find the a-hole player and select their profile,then choose mute
This has come in handy many nights with some of the trash talkers in Gears of War
