Sony Movies Now Available On 360's Netflix

There was a problem last week when the New Xbox Experience rolled out - and Netflix support rolled out along with it - yet Sony's movies were unavailable. Boneheads made conspiratorial mutterings. Netflix were more sensible.

The online movie company issued a statement last week saying "we hope they'll be licensed for Xbox 360 shortly". When Netflix say "shortly", they mean "shortly", as (most of) Sony's movies are now up and available for download. Least, the important ones are. Go knock yourselves out.

sony gets their money from microsoft, movies are back,conspiracy theories can stop

original seed5623d ago

Especially me. Im loving my Netflix on live.

lloyd_wonder5623d ago

Yup! Sony making money off the competition is only good business.

Firstkn1ghT5623d ago

Yup, I'm sure every computer in every Sony office has WIndows installed. More money from the competition.

lloyd_wonder5623d ago (Edited 5623d ago )

Yeah. And I'm sure after Vista and Windows 7 flops, MS's market share in computers will just keep on decreasing.

edit: Too late for Vista...

Firstkn1ghT5623d ago

Apple has a measly %10 market share. What operating system does the Sony Vaio laptops have???? huh??? huh??? :)

Easy money from the competition.

mikeslemonade5623d ago

BOOOO the xbox fans get what they want. I'm so sad.

bumnut5623d ago

"Yup! Sony making money off the competition is only good business"

sony fans agree

"Yup, I'm sure every computer in every Sony office has WIndows installed. More money from the competition"

sony fans disagree and demonstrate they are a bunch of ignorant fools.

apologies to the sony fans that are not ignorant fools

Mr_Bun5623d ago

Sony accepts your apologies.

heroicjanitor5623d ago

They both have other business interests than the games industry, not everything is about games and I doubt Sony's movie business is funding their games...

SL1M DADDY5623d ago

Can't count the number of Pro-MS fan blogs and pod casts that threw out their ideas of how Sony was pulling their movies from Netflix for reasons unbenounced to them. Stupid if you ask me since other Sony pictures were available. lol

mesh15623d ago

sony knew it had to bow to microsoft of the consequence wud be big like no windows on any sony vista etc they know who their masters are this gen .

ukilnme5623d ago

I use my 360 for gaming. As for watching movies, I must say that my PS3 does that pretty well.

SprayandPreycom5623d ago

at least sonys making some money somewhere since there ps3 gaming department isnt working out like they thought it would. But dont worry to much theres always the year 2017 that will be the year sony takes over... :]

Why o why5623d ago (Edited 5623d ago )

speak when your favorite console maker actually WINS a gen, then we'll see who's waiting;)

speaking of which why do pog and mart take their holidays at the same time:)..... wheres 'he' been anyway?

caladbolg7775623d ago (Edited 5623d ago )

They just don't make them like they used to. SprayandPreycom, you get an F, sir.

Gue15623d ago

If Sony is not making money of the gaming department "even though they have been outselling the X360 worldwide since launch" then, what is MS making with the X360 failure rate and the millions of dollars in warranties? the failed Zune, Vista and the HD-dvd add-on?

so easy to pwnd... =)

heroicjanitor5623d ago

How many billions has microsoft lost on the xbox and xbox 360? They have never made a profit from their games division, never even come close.

heroicjanitor5623d ago

So many disagrees for stating a fact... How can you disagree with a fact?

IaMs125623d ago

The problem with your fact is how long ago did was that? From what i have heard that they stated they are now in the profit margin, Big one? no of course not and from the SONY side they are in debt as well with the PS3 and i also heard the VAIO isnt that hot either... it goes both ways you need to spend to make money and they only company i see spending is MS right now

@SprayandPreycom:

You have no idea, Sony made about 320 million $ in the music business last year, they own Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Madonna, Britney Spears, Bushido, die Fantastischen Vier and many more...

The gaming industry is a small piece compared to that.

Not even speaking about their movie companies.

lloyd_wonder5623d ago

Actually, the gaming industry is bigger than the music industry by a wide margin. Which is why Sony wont ever quit it. They can make billions selling hardware and make billions selling games.

But, I get what you mean. Compared to all of Sony's other businesses, gaming is a small piece.

solidsnakus5623d ago

LOL! looks like sony got owned.

PirateThom5623d ago

Yeah, getting money sure does suck. :-/

KARMA20095623d ago

LOL Microsoft paid Sony tons of $$$$$ for their 360 to view some Sony movies...

Mozilla895623d ago (Edited 5623d ago )

This doesn't make the selection of movies a whole lot better, the fact is they need some better movies on there!

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

ZeekQuattro4h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B1h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21831h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh1h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia1h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins1h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal1h ago

The first game was the best imo.
