Xbox Video Marketplace in Europe, Canada Dec. 11

More like a night of SPARTAAAAAAAAAA, amirite?

Should we reserve in Hell? it's gonna be crowded :S

@Wilson
If I was in Europe or Canada I would be willing to fight in the shade to get the best seats possible.

Darn it; even one Hi-Def rental is more than my points can afford.

Damn prices. My 300 MS points will just have to stand against them.

Eyes Wide Shut is a great movie. Hell, anything that Kubrick has made is a great movie.

But other than that, maybe along with 300 and the Matrix movies, the selection is rather poor.

wait a minute, will movies cost more points for us, since we are totally getting shafted on the points-to-dollar ratio? Grrr... games cost $59.99 here now, so downloads better be equal value!

Games are 60 dollars everywhere, buddy.

Actually they are 65 euros in Holland which is almost 100$...

And RRP in UK for PS3 and 360 is £50, which is hovering round the $100 mark.

New games used to be $69 a couple months ago in Canada. Now we're equal to the US, although DVD prices are still typically $10 more a disc, but I now buy from Amazon.com

i'll second that

i'll second that one too. did you all know they are remaking it? slated for 2010 (a bit far away) and no cast, director, or anything as of yet. gerard butler as perseus CHA CHING!!!!!

I did actually hear about that a couple months ago. Definitely worries me. A lot of potential in the right hands though. Though, there was something about the claymation that made the Kraken and Calibos ultra creepy...

Ummm, maybe people like to follow something called MORALS and the LAW, Last time I checked in most nations stealing movies is breaking the law. Even if they didn't care if it was legal or not your gonna get faster download times on XBL then some torret site. So yeah stop trying to encourage piracy here please.

You can get some pretty damn fast download speeds on torrents actually... or so I've heard.

But yeah, downloading movies is illegal pretty much everywhere. Music on the otherhand...

actually torrents sites are much faster then xbl. When I download torrents, I max out my connection as I can see in my application (use private trackers, not crappy public). While xbl downloads are fast for me it seems, their not as fast as torrents. xb downloads dont go any faster then 800k/sec for me at least.

As for morals? No I dont feel morally bad about it because despite that worldwide piracy is rampant, all the celebrities, studios and business is still filled with rich people. Imagine their was no pircay, they would be even richer lol. As for legallity, well I would hardly consider it illegal. In order for there to be a law, it needs to be enforced. If its mearly a law written on paper and not enforced (like downloading is) then you cant really call it illegal. Its like the government is hoping you will obey an honor system with their laws with no intent on enforcing them lol. No1 in my country (canada) has been arrest yet I believe (for simply downloading that is, the people who have been arrested are those who download and sell, or run servers and whatnot)
