PS3 Video Store update; September 5
BIA: Hell's Highway 'Realism' trailer
According to Nielsen, which weekly reports hi-def sales, the Blu-ray movie sales outsold the HD-DVD movie sales with a lead of 85:15 in the week ending January 13th. This is the first full week after Warner Brothers announced they would start to support Blu-ray exclusively starting June this year.
In 2007 the Blu-ray movie sales outsold the HD-DVD movie sales by a margin of 64:36. And in the first week of this year, Blu-ray outsold HD-DVD 65:35.
The best sold hi-def movie this time is 3:10 to Yuma, which is an exclusive Blu-ray title. Last week it was Resident Evil: Extinction, also an exclusive Blu-ray title. The best sold HD-DVD was The Kingdom, which only sold 10% as many copies as 3:10 to Yuma. None of the HD-DVD movies made it in the top 10 last week.

My god cant Toshiba admit defeat and abandon HD-DVD we can all see the clear winner.
yeah toshiba guys are probably ripping the last few hairs left on top of theire brain.
good job by sony and blu-ray .
with news like that Paramount and Universal must be scratching their heads
psn id: gingo... wow it really is time for hd dvd to pack up their bags, the future is blu!!!!!!
Blu rocks. HD DVD may aswell bend over and prepare to be r*ped by every member of the BDA.
no...the future is neither.
looks like HD-DVD is just about down for the count...but can Blu-ray beat DVD?
This will be the NEW generations version of the beta-max issue... Instead of us bringing up beta, the younger gerations will bring up HD-DVD. LOL
Kick 'em while they're down.
Not bad, can't wait for more good blu-ray news.
cool when will Toshiba give up
Its already dead.
good news but im going to go listen to the new Insomniac Games podcast!!! Resistance 2 baby.
HD-DV Who? The Future bright the futre is blu.
The sooner we get this stupid war over and blu gets the crown, the sooner we can have Transformers on blu-ray!!!
HD-DVD - give up now while still losing....or give up later and lose everything!!! A loss in sales now is better than a MAJOR BIG LOSS later in the very near future!!! Checkmate!
wow that is a beat down
hd-dvd needs to GTFO..they know they lost so why do they stay around...its not like they lost a battle they lost the damn war
man when will this end
Pwned!
Think the HD-DVD camp should give up the ghost!
If only Paramount would see sense and use their 'back-up clause' to come back to blu-ray it'd all be over.
what would really be cool is a price cut for bd, 25-30euros for one film is alot, then even dvd will sell less than bd
Toshiba just needs to give up. Blu-ray has won and that's not going to change
Isn't it easier to just say that blue ray sold 5.6 times more than HD-DVD? or 5.6:1??????
And please don't tell me it is because of the decimals, it is much easier to mentally compare 5.6:1 than 85:15... this seems like just a way to make it seems like a lot more than it actually is... although 5.6:1 is a lot....
I love it! Now if Toshiba would just give in and stop selling $150 HDDVD players, maybe the war would be over.
Toshiba is standing on the finish line of a Nascar race and the cars are rounding the final corner.
Tsk Tsk Toshiba, admit defeat already
Awesome. Can't wait!
