Elite to use HDMI 1.2 not 1.3]]>http://www.joystiq.com/2007/04/02/oh-the-horror-elite-to-use-hdmi-1-2-not-1-3/http://www.joystiq.com/2007/04/02/oh-the-horror-elite-to-use-hdmi-1-2-not-1-3/http://www.joystiq.com/2007/04/02/oh-the-horror-elite-to-use-hdmi-1-2-not-1-3/#commentsFiled under:


Over on the AVS forums, an insider from Microsoft let the kitty cat out of the bag on the Xbox 360 Elite's use of HDMI. According to the post, the Elite will incorporate HDMI 1.2 and not the newer 1.3 version which the PS3 uses. What's the big difference you ask? Well, not too much other than HDMI 1.3 features TrueHD and DTS-HD audio output and other small fixes where as 1.2 does not. There's a lot of technical mumbo jumbo to be read, so if you're into all that technical jazz feel free to read up on the differences. For the HDMI noobs amongst us (which we mostly all fall under) check out Wikipedia's HDMI 1.2 vs 1.3 comparison and get learnified. To those of you who are purchasing an Elite 360, does this 1.2 revelation alter your opinion or sway you away from your future Elite purchase?
