You Have A PS3, But Do You Have The Ultimate Blu-Ray Movie Kit??

These haven’t shown up in the states just yet, but Sony is selling Australia a pretty interesting Ultimate Blu-Ray Movie Kit.

Priced at around AU$60, you get two Blu-ray movies (choices include films like Batman Begins and 300) and a PS3 Blu-ray remote. The two-movie pack is just a $10 premium on top of the remote price—not a bad deal (for us).

I’ve resisted Sony’s Bluetooth remote for some time—probably long enough that I’m over the need since I’ve gotten so darn good with a Dual Shock by now. But if they threw in some Blu-rays to sweeten the deal, I imagine that Sony could unload em by the truckload. Well, I guess all remotes come off trucks at sometime, but you get what I mean.

    Gee, I wonder why both packs include 300? It wouldn’t have anything to do with them trying to get rid of the original version now that the “Complete Experience” BD is out, would it?

    That said, this is a clever way of getting rid of that obsolete stock that at least offers buyers a good deal.

    I know it’s more expensive, but I still prefer the Logitech PS3 IR to Bluetooth adapter. Makes it dead simple for the girlfriend to switch to the PS3 to watch bluray’s and “other” content.

    This is a pretty good deal though, it’s about time Sony started doing this sort of thing!

    I bought both packs. 1 for me and 1 for my father. It makes it easy forr him to get used to a ps3 via a remote.
