Oh! I never buy from Ámazon DE before and i think the cover of the BD looks very nice like steelbook! By the way, do you own "Need for Speed 3D" German version BD? I'm interested to get it from Amazon DE because its the only region free BD but not sure it contains English subtitles! Would appreciate if you or anyone here with any info to let me know!  TQ! notworthy.gif

Hi,

I dunno abt the 3D version but the 2D :
Need for Speed bd
seems like dont hv Eng subs..
Its one of the bug bears of buying frm AMZ.DE - they remove the Eng subs .. Other than tat - well .... sum titles are cheaper and if you 'kumpul' - then you can actually save on shipping [standard.. anyway]

Thanks for your info! Guess I have to look for other version.  cry.gif 
Yes, I saw some German BDs that are quite cheap but no eng subs = no sale!  bye.gif

You need to check..

Some of de bigger studios still include eng subttls [ or prbbly they dont bother to remove it for the german version.. ] ; same wif eng audio especially if its not an eng speaking ttl..

As for me.. most of the time , lll just yank up de volume and my centre spkr [ a floorstndr - no less ] will handle most dialog tat de subttls - compensates biggrin.gif

All my casings are blue. Only 1 in translucent for Spiderman! Nice to see casing in different color!
Is your Pioneer 450 region free player? May need to invest in one region free player! So can buy any BDs from around the world!  nod.gif

Yes,

It is ... a jaibreaked version..
I hv also, a region free oppo bd80 n anthr rgn A-locked 105 which lll play around depending on wat rgn bds l wanna play..
Yes.. u hv to hv a rgn free player or at least anothr rgn B player to fully utilise wat the world has to offer - in de long run, you ll get back wat u invest in it [ rgn free player .. is not cheap ] by de savings in buying a cheep rgn-b bd

Wow! you have so many BD player! I think its a good investment in the long run but most are more than 1k in the market. A jailbreaked Pioneer BD player is the cheaper choice! Oppo is too expensive!  sweat.gif

Haha..

I have another Dune Prime - but tats spoilt due to a bad lens [ well.. at least l can't find a replacement lens kit for it.. ; my bd80 was up-the-wagon too but aftr changin a new lens, now works great..]
Yup.. sadly, decent stuff always is never cheap in Malaysia.. get d 450, its not a bad player..

Haha,

I doubt tats de case... as l alternate between all my players so each is not taxed too much..
Anyway.. l buy gear - to last .. durability is important to me .. l don't mind paying more for tat feature..
my first bdp was de 'fat' ps3 n tat died just past one yr [aftr warranty] changed de lens n its working again but decided its best being a game console n not bdp..
I dont believe laser lens gear will conk faster if left unused - its lite source based so how can using it more make it last longer - tink abt it.. even regular bulbs have a 'life' - if its lasts long to you - just means you are lucky.. IMO la..

YMMV tongue.gif

Editted to add :

My bdp80 was my 2nd bdp n it lasted ard 4/5 years before de lens started gvng prblms [ard last year] sourced de kit from de net n got it changed locally [ tat was late last year ] ; lets see how long it lasts..
l oso got an xtra spare lens plus one for de 105 too - just in case..
[aftr all.. shpng gets cheaper for each as u get more... LOL ]

maybe your 'fat' PS3 are the one that not come with dual lens which known to die fast..

i believe dust is a factor as well...
my laptop BD-rom die just after two year because i seldom use it...
that why i believe if you dont use often, it will spoil easily..

Dust .. More like luck..

For tat experience.. lll tink twice abt sony bdp.. no matter how great de rvws..
My experience is Oppo's not bad, my pioneer dvdp's were pretty decent too - lets see how long de 450 lasts.. [unfortunately, it can be a little picky on playing certain discs..]

Slipcovers ..

Are normally issued for the first print of a title.. meaning its limited edition - subsequent prints of the bd will not have de slipcover . Hence , why you seldom see it being with an older title..
But sometimes, a title is re-mastered and tis can be considered a new issue [depends on the studio.. ] and it will come wif slipcvr.. [maybe wif different artwork or it could be the same ..]
Pls also note tat if a title is not very popular and sellers still have the first print, older ttls will still come wif slpcvrs..
Tis shld hold for both sides of the atlantic ..
