Anyone in the US have the tagged classics?

[Loose Cannon]

wondering if any of you in the US have a region free Bluray/DVD player and if you have the tagged classics DVD's? if so, which player do you have?

thinking about getting one. how is the quality of the tagged classic DVD's?

[screech]

Don't know about my player, but I have one of the sets:

I liked it. Excellent quality. I would have more of them if I had any money to spare.

He's talking about the Silvervision Tagged Classics, which are PPVs from the 80s-2000s.

[Loose Cannon]

yea, that's a USA one. love that Backlash by the way. I really just want the King of the Ring's and In Your Houses that have not been released on DVD here

[Disturbed316]

Not sure about players in the US but my region free player is a Sony one and is around 8 years old now, but never had any issues with it playing different regions dvds, so I'm sure the newer ones are fine.

I have virtually all the Silvervision Tagged Classics and the quality is excellent. They have been digitised/converted or something from the original tapes so if there are any issues with quality its because there is an issue with the original. I can only think of two ppv's where this happens, but its a very short blip and doesn't detract from the shows.

You can get any cheap old DVD player and as long as you find the region code/pass/key online, can change the region at will.

Also make sure your TV supports PAL.

I'd take the tagged classics anyday over the WWE re-released sets. Everything is untouched - including the music. Nothing worse than watching an old skool event and waiting for an awesome theme to come on, only to be replaced by some generic weird crap.

[Loose Cannon]

Yea, I know what you mean. Although the WWE has been fixing that lately I've noticed. Demolitions theme was not on the Mania anthology, but was on Rumble's

Like this for example -

There is nothing better than the epic Vince Rumble intros.

[itsmeJD]

Vince (using his "you're fired!" voice): IT'S THE ROOOYYYAAAALLLLLL RUMMMMMBBBBLLLLEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Epic.

[Xero]

Why the fuck would they change who did the intro? I can see redoing the logo and graphics to make it look cleaner, but there was no reason to change from Vince.

[Loose Cannon]

ugh, that's going to suck when I get the anthology

Love how they kept a cheesy early 90s track for it though :D
