this is true to compare which is better MPEG2 Transfer done on BD or AVC codec done on HD-DVD!!!!

The result:

Presented in 1080p and encoded using the MPEG-2 codec on this Blu-ray, 'Payback - Straight Up: The Director's Cut' looks very good despite its grittiness and grime. While the HD DVD edition is encoded using the AVC MPEG-4 codec, both the Blu-ray and HD DVD editions are nearly identical and impress regardless of your favorite format

Again here MPEG2 Higher bit rate prove its superiority over VC1

now i want to say for HD-DVD if this title was done on HD-DVD using VC-1,BD using MPEG2 proves its superioty over VC1
But Paramount choose AVC so they rescue THEM from sinking in the water.
