When we posted the details for the District 9 Blu-ray disc a couple of weeks ago, we had no idea that it would include a demo of the upcoming God of War III PS3 videogame! The combinination of PS3 videogame and Hollywood film is an industry first for Blu-ray in North America and a pretty exciting development, if you ask me.
I’ve never been terribly interested in playing BD-Java games, as some discs have offered up. They seem like tacked-on ideas half-heartedly concocted in an attempt to fulfill the promise of Blu-ray discs extensibility. What I am interested in though, is a full featured PS3 game propagated from the film I’m watching and on the same disc! I understand that if this does indeed come to pass, it’ll most likely only be on a Sony disc of a Sony Pictures film. Fair enough. So no X-Men or Batman game/movie combos. But hope springs eternal for something really cool on the upcoming Spiderman 4 Blu-ray disc, likely to be issued around the holidays in 2011!
