BLAZING HOT PROPERTY: PLAY DVDS REGARDLESS OF REGION

Bought a DVD whilst on holiday and found it doesn’t work on your PS2 back inBlighty? No problem! Buy Blaze’s DVD Region Free to open them up?

Film fans everywhere can keep ahead of the UK film industry and watch DVDsfrom throughout the World on their PS2, because leading software developerFire International have found the solution to a problem familiar to many PS2owners who have bought DVDs that are not in a UK format (region 2). The Blazebranded DVD Region Free enables movie fans to play any DVD on their Playstation2,regardless of the region code (except for pirated DVDs).

The desire to have the hottest film release along with overseas travel andinternet purchases, make it easy to buy and own (sometimes unknowingly) DVDsformatted for regions other than the UK. DVD Region Free enables viewers towatch the newest releases from Hollywood and films sourced from outside the UKon their UK PS2.

Jason Cooper, Managing Director of Fire International Ltd said:‘The DVD Region Free is a good example of the way we are able to give fullvalue to PS2 owners, developing additional software for their PS2, and alsomaking the games console an increasingly multi-functional entertainment tool.

Many people have invested in the PS2 for its additional DVD player option, andit can be disappointing to find that your DVD does not work due to the RegionCode. DVD Region Free unlocks the PS2 to play all regions, which can be anadvantage either when buying DVDs out of the country, or simply to be able tosay that you’ve seen it first!?

There are other benefits to watching other region DVDs, including US versions,which often contain longer and uncut versions of the film compared to UKversions.’

DVD Region Free is available to buy from all good gaming outlets priced atRRP œ19.99
