The news that Resident Evil: Extinction will be a Final Standard Profile title with a second stream Picture in Picture commentary feature has been confirmed by a Sony Pictures insider on the blu-ray.com forum, indicating that this will be the first such title from Sony Pictures on Blu-ray Disc.
With the FSP deadline at the end of October getting closer, it is comforting to know that the new features are coming - though not likely this year.
I paid one thousand dollars for my blu-ray player. I better darn well play all BR features and extras that come out. I dont want to hear about this profile crap. Nothing on the box I purchased this player mentioned anything about the format not being finished
