Can i play R4 on my R2 Dvd!!

I think it depends on the disk I lent a friend Three Kings R4 to try on his Playstation 2 but it wouldn`t play it. If you look on Family Box Office -www.fbo.com.au - I think it is, when you ask for more details on a DVD it tells you whether the disk is R4 or R2 & R4. I imagine the latter type would play OK

Thanks pal! Should i go for R4 Matrix or not?

R4 matrix wont play on your R2 machine as it is not dual region (ie,, R2&R4 on same disc) so seein as your mnmachine is a R2 and the matrix is R4,,, it aint gonna happen.... :0) Cheers,,, Chivalry..
ps,, i bought R4 matrix other day from ezydvd for 11 quid deliverd! well chuffed i can tell u... :0)))

yeah if your dvd player can play r4 discs or if matrix is both regions cos its uncut

If you want to find out which R4 discs are also coded R2, this reviews site is pretty good:

But as said, a R4-only disc will not work on a R2-only player - heck, that`s the whole *point* of regional coding :-)


Mike

will do.......thanks guys

matrix aint both,,,, it is R4 only.. so u need a multi region to play it.. :0)

Funny thing- Im a Aussie
