I am wondering if the Region 3 Superbit Deluxe version of BHD will play on a regular Region 1 dvd player. I have read that some regional superbit titles do play on region 1 players, but that it depends on the title. Also, will playing the title in a Region 1 player affect picture or sound quality?

I was also wondering if there are any other Region 3 titles that will also play on Region 1 players. I thought they might since they are NTSC, but am hesitant to pick any titles up unless I am sure. I am really wantiong to get the Region 3 BHD: SB Deluxe very soon.....

The Korean BHD is Region 1,3 and 4. Thats the only Korean SB I've seen. All of the other Superbits are Region Coded for their particular region.

So does that mean that the Korean BHD: SB will play on a Region 1 player?

Yes.



Spiderman is Korean. There is a Japanese one as well.



That's not true either. You may recall a particular sale by an overseas company for Superbits around $13 or $14. They are region-free...or at least are NTSC R1 and 3.

Which site would that be? Are they legit? Are they the Korean versions. I own every Superbit released thus far and ONLY BHD has been Region 1. But that is the only Korean SB I have. The UK and Australia SBs are coded for Regions 2 & 4. The Japanese only R2.

So where would be a good site to buy BHD: SB Deluxe?

I saw the koreandvds.com has it listed for a good price, but it mentions in the specs that some titles produced in Korea are censored. Does this happen here with BHD, or does it only affect certain titles.

Are there any other Region 3 dvds that are better than there Region 1 counterparts, ie., contain DTS or more features??

Thats a global warning. Its on every title but only adult titles are censored.

I'd pick it up from Yesasia.com. Much more reliable and have better service. And cheaper... i think.



ohhhhhhh yes my friend. A lot. Off the top of my head, Chicago, Ransom, Crimson Tide, Evita, Big, Great Expectations, City By The Sea, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc...the list goes on and on.

Why are you specifically going after R3? Is it NTSC??

Seem to be. Check out this thread on dvdtalk:
