Yep, they both have more or less the same extras - though you should probably wait and get the Region 2 version due to it`s slightly higher PAL resolution. I`ve had my Region 3 copy now for the last few months and I must say that the picture and sound quality are excellent as well as the interesting (and quite amusing) commentary track.

I think the R1 release is marginally better for extras, but I thought it actually had a much better picture transfer than the R2. I have a 32" WS TV and it looked mint. The R2 has more grain or it certainly seems that way, especially in the darker sequences.

I think region 1 is RCE and anyway you can pick up the region 2 for £13.99 from play247

Whenever you are wondering whether it`s going to be R1 or R2 - checkout and bookmark this site first:

I don`t know if the R1 is RCE or not because my player just plays them regardless of Region or RCE encryption. I got my copy from http://www.play247.com
