Just in case you couldn't and didn't get enough of Watchmen, film or game, Warner Bros. is giving you even more options. Even options for you XBox and PC users that kind of got the shaft the first time around with the release. Even though the more economic version of it all is still on the PS3. Mainly because it is all bundled in for the cost of the BluRay plus a little more.
Starting on the 21st (A truly epic day), XBox users can download the first and second episode of Watchmen: The End is Nigh in a nice little bundle. For the PS3 users, picking up the directors cut version of the film will include both games with the extra unseen footage from the film. Unfortunately, if the PS3 users don't want to shell out for the big BluRay version, don't know why they wouldn't, you will have to wait until the 30th with the PC people to get this.
Seems like they are really pushing these bundles too. If you only want the single episode for the XBox, you will have to wait almost a month to get it by its lonesome. Very odd timeline, if you don't look at it in that light. Sounds all very construed, so below is the actual release for how it will be bundled and sold. Maybe you can make better heads and tales of it than what I just rambled.
Watchmen: The End is Nigh The Complete Experience is an innovative, retail Blu-ray Hi-Def game and film hybrid which will include Watchmen: The End is Nigh Parts 1 and 2 and the Watchmen: Director's Cut on Blu-ray.
