Now that Blu-ray has emerged at the top of the media format food chain, Sony is more actively promoting it, evident with the newest starter packs for the Playstation 3. Want to find out what’s thrown in the starter packs? Head over the full article for more details.

With Blu-ray emerging as the winner of the format war against HD-DVD, Sony is picking up the pace in marketing the PlayStation 3 as more than a next-gen gaming console. Half of the six new Sony PS3 starter packs have replaced top-notch games and additional controllers with Blu-ray movie discs.

As seen from the screenshot above (which you can click for a higher resolution), Sony dedicates the Fantasy, Adventure, and Thriller packages solely for Blu-ray with recent blockbusters Enchanted, I Am Legend, and We Own the Night.  As icing on the cake, the PS3 remote is also thrown in the package as well.

With prices ranging from US$ 452 to US$ 453, the prices for the Blu-ray PS3 packages are more affordable too. Now that more and more are committing to the Blu-ray course, Sony can never go wrong by striking while the iron is red-hot.
