A few weeks ago we had some in-depth news for
He-Man UMD releases for the Sony PSP. In it, while recapping other TV-on-UMD releases, we mentioned that "
MGM (now owned by Sony) has discussed a mid-September release of Stargate: Atlantis
, but hasn't officially announced it yet." That changed this week, as Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has officially announced this title:
When SG-1 discovers what it believes to be the remnants of the Lost City of the Ancients - the originators of the Stargates - Stargate Command launches an investigation. A new team of explorers, headed by civilian Dr. Elizabeth Weir, travels to the distant Pegasus Galaxy, where it discovers an advanced but deserted city on the ocean floor, a group of nomadic humans and a deadly enemy that feeds on humans as an energy source!
September 13th is the day that this UMD version rises, and the price is $28.95 SRP for all 88 minutes of the show's pilot episode (that's $3 higher a list price than the DVD version, and without the DVD's extras). You can pre-order it right now from
DVDPlanet.com for $20.97 or from
DVDEmpire.com for $23.34.
