Super-agents Kay and Jay, better known as the “Men in Black” (Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones) are back, saving the world in a high definition as Sony Pictures Home Entertainment releases a special Blu-ray Disc™ on June 17.

The intergalactic super-agents become apart of tech history as this Blu-ray release contains the most advanced BD-Live features to date. These features include a BD-Live Multiplayer Trivia Game where up to eight players in different locations can connect via BD-Live to test their Men in Black knowledge, a Frank the Pug Advice Generator laying down knowledge in topics of career, health, money and romance and much more!

Where is this news from? Link?

Jimboc · 03-19-2008, 05:56 PM

Can't say... technically under embargo according to the press release forwarded to me from a friend.

It does appear to be quoted from a press release. Good news if true.

Blu Titan · 03-19-2008, 06:25 PM

This appears to be legit, since it is not "big enough news" for somebody to make it up.

And we knew this was coming this summer (or at least this year) so not a big surprise either--but good to get a date for it!

BruceWayne · 03-19-2008, 06:29 PM

Should have been March... seeing as this is Will Smith on Blu month

It'd be nice if they do both too

BluMonster · 03-19-2008, 06:29 PM

i'd expect sony to offer a firmware update for PS3 users to take advantage of the BD-Live feature on MIB prior to its release.

owa · 03-19-2008, 06:34 PM

Wow, good to know and we get to know it a little early apparently.

MikeRox · 03-19-2008, 06:40 PM

Just to give more weight to this thread,

play.com have listed it for UK release on that date and set a lovely price of £13.99 (I LOVE Sony's Blu-ray catalogue pricing!!!) here!

MikeRox · 03-19-2008, 06:42 PM

Could have sworn I posted this already :S

But to give more weight to the thread, Play.com listed it the other day for UK release (and they are generally spot on for HD releases) for the lovely price of £13.99, I LOVE Sony's Blu-ray pricing

I wish the other studios would follow suit. I'd be able to buy so many more

Heres the linky.

Memnoch71 · 03-19-2008, 06:57 PM

Another must buy for me.

Most likely part of the reason it is under embargo. I assure you it's a real announcement, copy/pasted from an email sent by a SPHE rep.

Hopefully they port all or most of the extras from the DVD release.
