THIS. IS. SPARKETPLACE! 300 on XBLVM

by David Dreger { Aug 14th 2007 at 2:30PM }

300 is on Xbox Live Video Marketplace for Live members in the U.S. It's available in both Standard Definition and High Definition, the HD rental weighing in at 5.3 GB. Really, that's all we gotta say about it. Er ... go download it now? Seriously though, it's really an epic film that we enjoyed in theatres, and having the HD DVD allows us to appreciate the quality of its digitally distributed cousin.

[Thanks, J.R.]

I think of how often my 20GB, I'm sorry...12GB drive has less than that amount available. Good thing I can buy a 120GB unit and pay way too much for it!

Well...if I had that much space, then I might download it. lol...but since I don't, I'll just watch my regular 300 dvd.

oh wait...I'm in Canada.

Are they saying that the download is better quality than the HD DVD?

A big price cut in their 120 GBs would certainly spur movie purchases..

This movie is a great way to learn history

...if you're an idiot.

SAGExSDX @ Aug 14th 2007 3:22PM

wow that title was a stretch. sorry =P

Hello @ Aug 14th 2007 4:00PM

...why would you want to learn history from an action movie?

hmmm? M$: Now that we are phasing out the core lets get people to buy bigger HDD. 360 as a counsil is a great system MSs shotty workmanship and money mongering marketing is just a little to much for me.

Slvrgun @ Aug 14th 2007 5:25PM

It would be nice if they sold other HDD sizes. 60 or maybe even 80 gigs would be nice.

This is only 5 GB? Why do we need four layer Blu-ray discs?

colin @ Aug 14th 2007 6:59PM

@triforceowner,

so you can fit all seasons of buffy on one disc

@ MYPS3KilledMy360

If Microsoft's workmanship and money mongering are getting to you, why do you incessantly troll xbox360fanboy? Honestly, do you feel the need to comment on -every- single story? Do you actually feel like anybody even listens to you anymore?

Do you need a hug?

Just saw it. I'm not sure why people think it was so amazing. It was interesting, and not a bad film, but I wouldn't call it "epic" or "must see" because really, it's a pretty simple story enhanced by some cool effects.

Still, if you can get it in HD on Marketplace, this is a good thing.
