Never seen this so it will be a blind purchase for me...on Blu-Ray, naturally!  | |

I doubt that'll have the same impact as the lack of features.
I wonder what impact this will have on PS3 owners?
Many have been sold the PS3 as the best, biggest, baddest, most future-proof, all singing, all dancing machine, that can do a million and one thing the Xbox360 can't, and even has a high def film format better than the 360s...only '300' on HD DVD for the 360 has PinP extras and an interactive game, whilst the BD for the PS3 doesn't.
A pint for the first person to spot a BD fan arguing that it won't make any difference because PS3 fans don't want games. 
I may well never watch the PinP, and almost certainly won't play the game, but it'd drive me mad to have a disc that won't do these, when I know there's a disc I could have bought that will.

Steve W | What has the Blu rays lack of features got to do with the PS3? Its exactly the same for every Blu ray player. The PS3 isnt the only Blu ray player on the market. Dont bring this thread into a X360/PS3 slagging match.

Dont bring this thread into a X360/PS3 slagging match. | You miss the point. I couldn't care less about games consoles.
The point is that BD has a disc sales lead because of a games console, and we have a release here which has a game on the HD DVD but not on the PS3-friendly format.
If PS3 owners become disillusioned with BD films because of this, it'll impact on the format wars.
