"300" Sells More on Blu-ray Disc Than HD DVD

We all knew that 300 was the fastest selling HD title but didnt said on which format. Now we know which format it is.

300 appeals to the video game crowd that already owns a PS3. I find it no suprise at all that the Blu-ray disk outsold the HD-DVD.

So it outsold just because of the PS3? OMG what an poor excuse, especially with recent reports that only 40% of PS3 owners know that the PS3 has Blu-Ray playback.

I saw this on BluRay and wasn't impressed. It seems grainy to me. So was the 720p .wmv version of it I saw. I think that is just how they filmed it. Discovery HD shows off high def way better than this movie IMO.

The movie does have a post process effect going on but it looks stunning. I don't have the movie yet but I saw it at my friends house and dam did it look good.
