Default DVD vs Blu-Ray Comparison Screen Shot

Courtesy of Disney - I pulled this off the Pirates 3 BD. For anyone new or wanting to show others just how good BD looks - this might be of use to you!

Enjoy!

This isn't a pic. Lol. It's a direct screen shot from the disc itself. Nothing in between!

Full 1080p resolution. Download it to your PS3 and look at it there. Should be a better image since it's not your computer screen.

I noticed a bigger difference when I did the comparison myself. I compared Dead Man Chest as well. I took my PS3 to my friends house to watch a movie and it was their first time watching a Blu-Ray movie. So, I wanted to do a comparison before we started. We went through my PS3 library and his DVD library and that was they only common movie.

We played both movies at the same time and just kept switching back and forth between the two. I then paused both movies and the same part and showed the the differences again. I was actually amazed at the huge difference we saw. And my friend TV only does 1080I.

So true. I'm hoping that within a year and a half I will have a HDTV and a Blu-Ray player in every room of my house. That is 3 bedrooms and the living room. So, I need to buy 3 more players and 2 more HDTV's.
