Hey Hung,
ever received these? Personally, I stopped buying the Koch Media Wild West DVDs. I think I have them all until they started printing the huge FSK labels on front of their releases due to this new law. That's a huge shame in Germany right now. Some DVD labels release their new titles with reversible sleeves, so that's a good alternative. But Koch Media release their Wild West titles in digipacks and the cover arts are ruined by the huge FSK labels. I don't understand why they don't do it like Splendid Entertainment. Just include a piece of paper under the shrink wrap that shows the cover with the huge FSK-logo and once you open it you find the actual cover in perfect condition.

This one only had the FSK label on the shrink wrap (or under, can't remember), not in the front cover. Same with The Big Gundown. I don't know about their other releases, as these are the first two I've bought.

Still, I wouldn't let ugly covers stop me from buying good dvds.

Cool LD :) Actually I ordered a new copy as the one I had was pissing me off with disc read errors etc but then I realised Blockbuster video would clean the old one for me and now it works fine :oops: :)
Love the script in the game, it's often very funny :D

Years ago.

You taking about the film or the dvd?

Film: February 2006

DVD: November 2007

The dvd is cool. The film is not. Good thing I managed to sell it to Dice :D

That's actually the back cover. It's so cool that I posted it accidentally. Here's the front:

Been playing that on PS3 during the holidays. Seems good, but the soundtrack is bloody awful. I can't find a single song that isn't bad. Can I somehow use my own music files? I'd prefer Berryz koubou or Yui Asaka...

Valkyria Chronicles for the PS3 for 10 euro. Lots of great bargains right now at a local shop, including MGS4, Resident Evil 5 and many more great titles for 10 bucks a pop.

You haven't seen that movie yet? It's pretty damn good. I don't know about the BR quality, but the movie will most likely not disappoint you :)

I wonder how that compares to the Korean remaster from some years ago?

Dunno but I think the Criterion is director-approved.

So is the newly fucked up Ashes of Time, so can't say that means much to me, TBH.
