When Paramount Home Entertainment decided to support HD DVD exclusively, Michael Bay was vocally opposed. Since the decision came just as his Transformers would debut on high-definition home video, Bay threatened to back out of the sequel.
He took back his drastic comments and is hard at work developing Transformers 2, but now that Blu-ray is the format that is gaining momentum, Bay cannot help but remind us he told us so.
"Blu-ray's better, and I told everyone," Bay said at the Visual Effects Society's sixth annual award show, where he presented the award for animated character in a motion picture. "I was very vocal about it. I knew HD [DVD] was not going to make it."

Microtransactions have gotten ridiculously overpriced in recent years, with titles now offering cosmetic skins worth more than some games.
There never was, the only time I paid for a microtransaction was on Blacklight Retribution (PS4) and it was because I enjoyed the game a lot so I felt the devs should get something for all that entertainment (€5 "membership")
I couldn’t believe what Blizzard charged for horse armor and cosmetics in Diablo 4…
I remember back in the day when a season pass was $15 and you got everything included in it. Now, I see them at $60 and you still don’t get everything.
As soon as gaming wasn't deemed nerdy anymore, and reached the casuals this happened. We're smart, but casuals play mobile games and other stuff, and don't really have anything to compare. They think gaming is supposed to be like this and pay for in game purchases.

All I want is Transformer on Blu-ray. That isn't too much to as is it?
The only Michael Bay movie worth watching, IMO, is The Rock, and that is already out on Blu-ray. Great release too. Good PQ, AQ, and some very nice special features.
He has no reason to be a fanboy or to be invested in Blu-ray as he worked with Paramount. I hope the fvcktard that delayed the end of the format war and made paramount not release on Blu-ray gets a serious scolding from his superiors, whoever they are.
Transformers might-or might not- be a good movie, but we owe it to ourselves to watch this beauty on High Definition and at least a 5.1 sound system.
