I just bought the 2 disc Special Edition in HK. Ganda! Meron pa 3D paper plane plus another bonus disc of the Sky Captain Interactive PC Game! So actually it should really be called 3-disc Special Edition! DTS ES 6.1 audio pa! All for the equivalent of only 800 pesos. Cool!  :o :o :o

I got my copy in VideoSight in Tsim Sha Shui just across the Mosque. But I'm sure you can get a copy in any HMV branch.

I also bought a copy in Hong Kong last week. It costs me HK$120. I forgot the name of the shop. It is near the MTR Mongkok station Bank Centre exit. It is in basement near the woman street night market.
In fact, it can be easily bought in other DVD shops in HK.

I already saw this title last sunday and it's 2 discs for P299 only! Problem is, it's released by C-Interactive! Other titles were Sahara and Stealth, both single disc and fullscreen, P299.

Just got this title yesterday for 299 and frankly, apart from the usual wrinkled amaray case, the WS 16:9 anamorphic format so far looks fine (though I'm not exactly elated by the diffused and highly contrasted colors.)and the audio transfer sounds oK.  I didn't get to finish this and have yet to watch the special features which are meaty based on what's written at the back.  Afterall it's 2-disc.   It even has an insert.  ;D  At that price, I'll see when i finish watching everything in it if I have reason to complain.   ;D  I'll just change the case one of these days.

Bro av_phile,

Is the first disc dual layer or single layer only?

I haven't checked.  Based on experience with C-interactive, I think they're just single layer.

Stealth was at P475, I think.

Stealth was at P475, I think.

Maybe it was mispriced because the 3 dvds has sticker of 299 and the manager at Astro SM Centerpoint was offering them to me.
