Resident Evil Extinction movie features Resident Evil 5 demo [UPDATE]

by Andrew Yoon { Nov 13th 2007 at 4:15PM }

Sony Picture's upcoming Blu-ray release of Resident Evil Extinction is shaping up to be one of the coolest ever ... at least from a technical perspective. Taking full advantage of Blu-ray profile 1.1, the movie will include some cool Blu-ray only special features, such as a PIP video commentary called "Under the Umbrella" and "Blu-Wizard 2.0," an interface which will "memorize" how you've watched content and store it for future access. Creepy.

But according to High-Def Digest, the biggest bonus of all (at least for PS3 owners) is the addition of two high-profile game demos: one for Resident Evil 5 and another for Devil May Cry 4. Currently, the disc is scheduled for release on January 2nd, 2008 and has a MSRP of $39.98. Hopefully, this is just the first of many future discs that feature bonus playable content on Blu-ray.

[Update: Capcom contacted Siliconera. Apparently, the discs will feature non-playable trailers for the games, making any real reason to purchase the Blu-ray disc null. Sorry!]
