Two newer video services, however, offer benefits missing from such rivals as:
Amazon.com's Unbox and Netflix's online-viewing option. Microsoft's Xbox Live Marketplace video store (introduced in late 2006 and upgraded since) and the just-relaunched movie department of Apple's iTunes store let you rent movies without a computer, play them on an HDTV and view some of them in high definition. And, unlike Vudu's new video-download system, those offered by Apple and Microsoft run in familiar online stores and on affordable devices that do more than just download movies.
Apple's Apple TV media receiver (from $229) puts your computer's music, photo and video libraries on an HDTV. (Apple's service also works with its iTunes software for Mac OS X and Windows.) Microsoft's Xbox 360 - a model with a hard drive is required, from $350 - plays some of the most popular video games. Each costs less than a Blu-ray high-definition disc player.
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."
Activision and Raven Software's 2006 action role-playing game, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, has found its way to the Xbox Store.
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
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.
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.
Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.
The latest model of ASUS TUF gaming laptops has just had a price cut - check out this gaming laptop deal while you can.
I dont even think anybody bought none of these games seeing as how they are all shovelware.
they forgot the ronald mcdonald game! i still have it, it was a lot of fun to play back in the day ha.

Just a summary of the comments to follow in the Open section....Come on Sony fanboys...your getting predictable!
Is that both of them are 720p TOPS. If you're just a casual movie viewer, then either service would be fine for the occasional rental. Although most cable provider's Pay-Per-View system SMOKES both of them for speed of delivery... ;-)
However, if you want to own a copy of the movie in HD, then Blu-Ray is the only way to go. Especially after seeing the difference between 720p media and 1080p media. Over 1 million more pixels of definition...
There's more than enough room in the industry for both downloads/streaming movies and Blu-Ray. It will take a couple of years before Internet backbones and consumer Internet connections are fast enough to handle streaming Blu-Ray quality audio and video, and a few years after that before those fast connections start becoming common.
Which makes this article smell a bit like FUD to try and persuade consumers to not even bother with Blu-Ray...
"Blu-ray didn't win!" articles until 2009, when Blu-ray players are the same price as products like Xbox 360 and Apple TV. Actually, scratch that. We'll still see them, as there are still a lot of news sites that are biased against Blu-ray.
Either way, it's cheaper to have a Blu-ray player since it doesn't require high-speed internet, which costs hundreds of dollars a year to use, and doesn't have an annual fee like with Xbox Live. If you're not into high definition content though, Apple TV is the best choice. Wouldn't recommend a 360 for DLC, namely because a third of all 360s end up dying. Haven't heard of any reliability issues with the Apple TV hardware.
