I heard the cut the overall length of the cutscenes by about 25 minutes to fit the game onto X number of Xbox 360 discs.

I also heard that they lowered the quality of the video on both versions in keeping with an agreement with Microsoft that both versions be equal.

Tease.

I would have double dipped for the blu-ray without the demo included, but if this is true, I'll probably not bother just to spite them.

Woah. That was a big fanboy rant.

Its only a demo... if you want it that bad import it.

Problem there is that you get a demo for $70 with a BD that will not work on your console.

I am not sure if I should believe this. You have a link?

If that is true then sorry to say but that is bullshit. -.-

I figured it was, that is the reason for the first sentence in my post.

It is just that so much BS is thrown around lately that it is hard to take anything seriously.
