Video Marketplace is Legendary!
Let there be no doubt that Xbox LIVE Video Store totally rocks! You want proof? How about the launch on the service of one of this year’s most gargantuan Hollywood blockbusters, I am Legend? Case closed, your honour!
Taking its inspiration from the cult classics ‘Last Stand on Earth’ and ‘The Omega Man’, I Am Legend tells the harrowing tale of our planet laid to waste by a deadly virus that has wiped out much of humanity and mutated the few that remain into monstrous bloodthirsty zombies. All, that is, except Army virologist, Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville (Will Smith) who, miraculously, seems immune to the virus’s horrifying effects. And so Neville sets out on a three year mission to discover if others have been as fortunate as he and to find an antidote before he finds himself on the menu. You see, those that fell prey to the virus (ominously called ‘The Infected’) have a different agenda and prowl the streets of a spectacularly ruined New York City in search of the pure blood of the last healthy human being on Earth – and there are no prizes for guessing who that is. Will Neville survive long enough to find human company or the much needed cure? Well, you’ll have to watch the movie to find out. It’s available on LIVE Video Store right now, alongside other such cinematic treats as the lengthily-named Western smash ‘The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford”. Yeee-haw! Neville and Jesse join a happy band of over 70 brilliant movies to download and view at your convenience. We’re adding more all the time too – watch them as they land here and don’t forget that most of our movies are available in standard resolution and, of course, breathtaking high definition. I am Legend in crisp HD – can you imagine how awesome that’s going to look? Mmmm… |
