    ... because the God of War III demo will be on the disk, which is slated to come out December 29.  Joystiq also states that once you beat the demo, a featurette of the game will be unlocked.
     
    So, will you buy it?
     
    Also... you totally thought I posted this in the wrong forum, didn't you. =P

    I'm not gonna lie, I thought you posted in the wrong forum, and that seems an odd way to distribute a demo, but I do have plans on getting District9 anyways, as I really liked it, I suppose the demo would just be a plus.

    You would have to be an idiot to buy this SOLELY for the GOWIII demo.  Hopefully, people will buy this because this are interested in District 9 and not the later.
     
    Don't get me wrong.....I am buying GOWIII the day it is released but I do not believe in paying for demos.  All demos should be free.

    I fail to see the connection with putting the demo on the District 9 Blu-Ray of all things.

    Getting this. District 9 was quite enjoyable, plus the added bonus of  a GOW 3 demo.

    25 bones gets you District 9 and a demo. Don't BRs cost even more than yet?
     
    Are you going to say next that $40 isn't worth it for GOW3 demo, even though two other games are featured in it? (i.e. God of War Collection)
     
    Edit - Not the point. If I had PS3, I'd definitely buy this. I want to see District 9. :(

    I won't be buying District 9 for the God of War 3 demo... I'm buying it for District 9. But the demo will be nice little added incentive to get the movie when it comes out.

    I don't understand. God of War III is a action game about some stupid skin head from Greece, and District 9 is about aliens being persecuted in Africa.
     
    One is a mythological fantasy game, the other is a alternate reality sci-fi movie.
     
    That's... a weird choice.

    If I had a Blu-Ray player, I'd rent the movie. But speaking strictly for the demo, no. It'll be on the GOW 720p re-release disc anyway.
     
    Can you install the demo to your drive then play it without the disc? If so, just rent it unless you're in love with the movie.

    Awesome! I didn't like the movie that much, but I was planning on buying it on blu-ray anyways, and this definitely convinced me.

    Sure.
     
    Definately a round about way of marketing a game/releasing a demo.
     
    Still, if you had said to me liek 10 years ago that we were gonna be living in a future world where HD movies that are higher fidelity than most peoples TV's can even display, where the storage medium is so high capacity that (demo's of) one of the most technically intensive video games ever made can just be thrown in on a disk that (thanks to the peter jackson factor) is bound to have hours of extra features anyway.....
     
    ...Actually that sounds about right. 
    Still - awesome.

    I'll be getting the GoW Collection as i've never played GoW2 yet (it's on my shelf) so i'll get the demo from that. D9 was a good movie but i won't buy the blu-ray til i can get it for really cheap or during an amazon  buy2get1free sale or whatever.
