I watched this this morning on XBL. But I still think the blu ray looks sharper for sure.

The HD looks rubbish compared to the Blu-ray version on my PS3.
Seems like Microsoft are fooling lots of people that digital downloads are the future. Gimped Future perhaps...

Yeah right.. it's MS that's trying to say that rofl. Pretty sure it's the world that is saying it. Digital downloads and streaming are much faster and more convenient then driving to the store or blockbuster(or whatever you go to).

This movie was SO close to Perfect, however, they did not have Morgan Freeman do the "I'm F-ing Matt Damon". FAIL

There is also a new theme (not premium) and a few bonus features for the film, making of stuff on the marketplace. I found them on the spotlight channel. There was a dark knight box and it linked to the theme and bonus features. Pretty cool, since it was all free.

Used to be at least. It was when I downloaded it. All of the stuff was.

This is nice. The newer DVD releases from the XBLM are a nice substitute from Netflix streaming or your physical Netflix queue for when you want to watch something that you don't have.
I'll be watching this one for sure, the Dark Knight was so well done.

Goes to show that there isn't some conspiracy between Sony and Microsoft to halt their access to the conglomerate's movie collection, since Dark Knight is distributed by Sony Pictures. ;-)
Not acting like a fanboy or anything -- I just got tired of that whole Netflix controversy.

The Dark Knight, along with all DC movie titles, are owned and distributed by Warner Brothers. The bad blood between Sony and Microsoft remains, their are no Sony - owned movies or tv shows on marketplace...

Did anyone notice but me the lack of Bonus content on both Bluray and DVD yet XboxLive Marketplace has more than 4?
XBLM FTW! No question.

I bought this yesterday on PS Store, but I'm surprised XBL just got it? It was on PSN since it came out on DVD & Blu-Ray.

Does that mean the Xbox just lost the console war? :P

I saw The Dark Knight for the first time last night at a friends house. I couldn't follow it at all (maybe because of my friends?), but it was badass and super action-packed!

Comparing a Blu Ray to a XBLM download is an instant fail. If you want to know why I'd suggest using Google. I wouldn't even bring On Demand in the discussion because that's worse than a XBLM/PSN/Itunes download. The HD version sits at 7 gigs already at 720p so I know if they had a 1080p version it would be "I need to get a new hard drive" bigger.

OMG, why is the downloadable 7 gig HD version lower in quality than the 25+ gig HD version I can buy on disc? lol.

I just watched it on FiOS On Demand today! Now there are only two people left in the world who haven't seen it.
