Street Fighter IV online lag proving tricky to conquerThis holiday season, Blu-ray owners will be able to purchase one of the biggest movie series to hit High Definition discs yet, with Fox Home Entertainment announcing availability of the Die Hard Collection this November.
Originally announced to be available online in a bundle, the box set collection will include all four films in the series to date; Die Hard, Die Hard 2: Die Harder, Die Hard with a Vengeance and Live Free or Die Hard. However, Fox has recently updated the specs of the set, now stating that each of the four films will be available separately. For the fans out there, at USD 129.98 for the set vs. USD 39.98 for the single films, the collection is the most cost efficient way to go.
This is the only change that has been made to the set so far. The movies will all be pressed onto BD-50, or 50 GB discs. They will support 1080p high definition and are encoded in MP4 with 5.1 channel loss less audio.
The latest film in the series, Live Free or Die Hard will include all of the special features that will be included on the two disc DVD set, and will also include one yet to be announced exclusive feature. No additional content will be added to the other three films, however.
Be sure to come back for more details on this set, as well as a review when it comes out.

Nice. I really like the Die Hard films. Might buy this in the future. But no extra material for the old movies? That sucks a bit.
Sounds awesome. Any news on when/if it'll be available in the UK?
Man, I think I'll buy this one, but let's see. Blu-ray owns.
A great bundle for Blu-ray and Die Hard fans, not a fan of the series itself but probably would watch a repeat on TV if there is nothing else on.
So blu-ray has Die Hard Quadoligy and Spider-man Trilogy at the end of this year, November for Spider-man as well I think? Top that HD-DVD. Don't forget the rumour of the Spider-man blu-ray Trilogy being bundled with a 40gb HDD PS3?
Great movies, but the bundle is so expensive!
LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD, IS THAT THE UK TITLE OR THE AMERICAN TITLE, THAT SUCKS. i prefere DIE HARD 4.0, the title they have here in japan, it makes more sense also.
I'll take 'em. They were all good - great action movies. They'll look nice next to my MI blu-ray set.
psn id: gingo... i hope this comes to UK soon cause i will defo be buying this 4 top class films plus special content and exclusive content all on one disk this is a must buy hopefully comes out before or just after christmas
EDIT:NDGO - that is the american name in UK it is called Die hard 4.0 aswell which is a way better name
WOOT die hard in bluray!!!! its a must buy for every die hard fans and bluray owners
If you didnt see die hard 4, you have to watch it, its very good
Thats awesome. Definately looking at getting the collection. GW fox!
No one cares what you UK or Japs think about the name. Cause which country made the movie? Which country are the main actors from? Which country actually fights terrorists. America, so we can name our own frecken movie whatever we want, but obviously there are alot of countries that dont promote freedom like the US, are you ashamed of it?. Some of you just complain about the silliest things.
So 50GB discs.....HD-DVD take notice. They will need to be at 3-4 layer discs by the end of 08 if they plan on being the dominent format
Yippie-ki-yay, mother****er!
don't listen to enacku...he's an idiot. i for one appreciate the brothership we have with england......now france....i think we can all agree no one likes the french...quite ironic since they used to be an originator of democracy.
oh...and ps i got spiderman box set pre-ordered for less then 60 bucks so just because the initial price says 139.99 doesn't mean you won't find it significantly cheaper.
@Davin_g
you think you are better with your "no one likes french" , just stfu man ask yourself am i better than this guy?
Might have to make space on the shelf for this one
