The ordering, shipping and arrivals thread

About £35 each! Expensive, but so very much worth it, you can even see every detail of Yuko's dimples

 

Are they region free or do they only play for specific regions like DVD's?

 

Blu-Ray discs do have region codes, but they are different from DVD regions. You can check that out here.

HD-DVD has no regions codes at the moment, is cheaper to get into, and best of all, isn't forced upon you by Sony. I hope it wins, even though it's had some trouble lately.

Anyway, are the concerts a full 1080P?

 

I finally got my Bingo! singles. w00t!

 

It pleases my heart to see so many people actually buying the singles

 

i can't wait to get mine, hopefully in the next few weeks.

 

Oh whoops, I forgot all about taking pictures. Shall do so and edit this post later!

 

my order just shipped. 2 of 3, can't wait to get it!
Ashita wa Ashita no Kimi ga Umareru (Normal Edition A)(Japan Version)

Bingo will follow soon, order 3 of 3 next.

 

I don't think it states a region on the box, but I'd assume it's Region A, which is basically Japan and USA. If you have a Japanese or American PS3, your in luck. UK PS3's are a no-go - this is a big reason I imported a US PS3 - You can use Japanese Blu-Rays, and get your fix of western stuff from America too.

Unfortunately, they are 1080i 59.94Hz Mpeg2. Thankfully they still look stunning, but in todays world of 1080p AVC, it's a bit embarrassing. They are also proper 1920x1080i, not some dodgy 1440x1080 cop-out.
On the positive side, the sound is lossless LPCM 96KHz 24-bit.

It's so typical of Japanese releases though, it's the same with Japanese DVD's - always stunning sound, with the video trailing behind.

 

Bah. Mai's photo from the latest BLT set is absolutely mind-blowing, but I just can't justify spending the amount it's going for on a single photo.

 

^ Now that's what I call hot off the presses! How much do these things cost at a normal price?

 

So expensive but the best video quality

Many thanks for great information B-)

 

You're telling me. I'm a Mayu AND Acchan fan... *should just mortgage life right now*

 

I could teach you a few things about some very attractive life insurance policies made directly payable to me if you have some time to listen

 

I would, but I fail to see how that helps me with my Mayu problem I am, however, willing to take out hits if that's what I have to resort to...

 

ah, so that is where people got if from, BLT mag...
but how much was it going for?

 

Ahem.



I only sold half my soul to get it this time (and still five times cheaper than Mayu...).

If you see me in this thread again any time soon, smack me...

 

I got Takamina's but gave up on getting Acchan's....I do want to eat....

 

I gave up on eating... I really did... but mum just sent me a supermarket, so I can now, yay!!!

*watches the Mayu auctions*

 

*smack*
