We’re only a few hours until Microsoft’s ‘New Xbox Experience‘ debuts to the public. However, it looks like Sony is trying their best to be the party-pooper. During the preview that so many had the chance to participate in — one of the coolest features most people enjoy, is being able to steam movies through Netflix. For the most part, Netflix ran smooth and only had a ‘few’ minor hiccups.

During the first week of the preview, anything that could be viewed with the ‘watch instantly’ feature on the PC, could be viewed on the Xbox 360. Thanks to Sony, that isn’t the case anymore. Movies distributed by Columbia Pictures are coincidently not working with the NXE update.

Now, if you’re not familiar with the movie industry — Columbia Pictures is owned by Sony. You know, the same Sony who created the PlayStation 3 — the same PlayStation 3 that is loosing to the Xbox 360 in the console wars. We’re not saying Sony is doing this on purpose and try to take away any kind of positive buzz surrounding the NXE. However, if they’re not — don’t you think it’s a little odd to delete movies that were available on the 360 less then 24 hours ago?
