Verified Purchase:Yes
In one of Clint Eastwood's best movies, he stars as an intelligent prisoner sent to the "Rock". Once there, he befriends a few inmates and makes at least one enemy.
The enemy wants him dead after a refusal and fight.
The "friendly inmates" are two guys that also plan their escape wisely.
The enemy wants him dead after a refusal and fight.
The "friendly inmates" are two guys that also plan their escape wisely.
A neighbor inmate next to Eastwood starts out wanting to join the escape party but cannot find the means to do what is necessary in a timely manner.
The Warden is bent on breaking Eastwood's character by constant checks and wanting to move him to another cell.
Eastwood then sets in motion the escape of the century.
Picture and sound are better now than previously released Blu-ray even. I found it superior.
The details now are excellent.
Sound is also excellent through the soundbar.
Easy selections and menus.
We get a nice 4K, Blu-ray copy, and slipcover.

A good release from Paramount, but not the greatest.
I am very pleased to have the steelbook now and the original version.
However, the Theatrical version is only on the DVD included.
Looks to be a DVD that has been previously released.
Nothing new in this package other than the steelbook and the Digital code.
Artwork is solid., Love it. Inside though is okay. No scenes on the inside of it. I would have loved for them to put
the last scene in the movie inside the steelbook of them all on the beach at Coney Island.

I had the previously released Blu-ray already, so it is the same one as far as material is concerned. The artwork on the previous one is much better. Here, we have a lazy blue color on it for the Blu-ray.
The movie looks and sounds great on the HD Blu-ray.

Great set and price on Black Friday! $35 bucks off! Had to have it. The 4Ks look really good and sound is great also with easy selections.
However, for some reason Sony had decided to cheap out on the packaging for this set.
I mean, if you are releasing the trilogy in 4K for the first time, make an effort.

One of my favorite John Travolta movies comes to 4K format!
BLOW OUT is that early '80s thriller with Nancy Allen (Carrie, Dressed to Kill, Robo-Cop).
John plays a soundman for an independent movie company and while recording some audio one night locally, he notices an accident that has a car going into the river from a bridge. He saves the woman inside, and then gets entangled into a political murder mystery involving the woman (Nancy Allen).

Menus are good and there are some extras from Criterion, of which were brought over from the previous releases.
The only thing that was not upgraded was the sound for the 4K.
It is DTS English 2.0 and if you have a good soundbar, at least, it's good enough for this movie.

Evolving from its 1958 beginnings as an amusement game manufacturer, Midway produced some of the hottest arcade games of the 80s and 90s, that have since been adapted into film, television, and much more.Their monsters-wreaking-havoc title Rampage~was a giant early hit, and then leaps in live action digitizing technology led to Mortal Kombat~, recognized as one of the most important titles in video game history. With it~s over the top darkly humorous gameplay and finishing moves, Mortal Kombat~became an instant franchise with iconic characters and enduring catch phrases.

5 out of 5Authentic arcade experience
By BBShopper
This is the 1UP Arcade to get. Ten games, including MK1, 2, and Ultimate 3. Scan line filter and difficulty settings are available on each game. Some games have additional options. MK1 and 2 have flawless emulation. Ultimate MK3 suffers from occasional slow down when a lot happens on screen. Otherwise it plays perfectly.
This is my first 1UP purchase, and I'm very satisfied with this purchase. I'll pick up more as my favorite games are released.

I hope you knew that 4K discs DO NOT play in standard Blu-ray players before you wrote this 1 star review for the movie. You should have known by now that 4K discs have to be played in their own players and can play the others, DVD/Blu-ray. Game systems also have to be able to read the 4K UHD disc as well. 4K is a step up from Blu-ray, overall.

The art is amazing, the panel graphics are fantastic. They did an amazing job remaking this 20th anniversary cab. The screen is ultra clear. Fantastic game selection. And every game has online leaderboards which makes the replay value great. I keep coming back to this cab wanting to get in the top 25. Arcade1up’s quality has really improved over the first gen cabs. They knocked this one out of the park.

Thank you for taking the time to convey what I was thinking without having it physically, yet!
Looking at the cabinet up close with the pictures provided here on Best Buy, it looks like they have redesigned the Volume control and On/Off white buttons also. They look to be flat now, as opposed to be the white pegs they are on the PAC MAN Legacy Edition I own.
Is that an upgrade design for this one? Just curious.

I got this assembled just fine, but then the joystick fell apart after the first play. I got it reassembled, but now it's loose and doesn't feel right. The controls don't respond right either. I am really good at this game and score well in arcades, so something is wrong. I shouldn't have to repair parts for a brand new machine. Not impressed.

Hi, that is a shame and I feel for you. Hopefully, you will get your money back on this. I should say that PAC MAN Legacy Edition is really good, but I feel like the joystick could have been built better. It works, but it really clicky whereas the real one from the Arcade is solid and does not make any noise. That is the only drawback I have on these units, the joysticks are not built well enough.

I bought this thinking it was the Steelbook Collector's Set. Unfortunately, it was just regular packaging. Not worth the price without it being steenboks.

You can still get those, for the Hobbit, and then Lord of the Rings. Finding a good deal on them is key and not all dented up.
I should say though they did not have the Appendices, which I believe this one does?

Had the Ms Pac Man cocktail table, which I love. Class of 81 blows that one out of the water. Selling the cocktail cabinet.
Lit marquee, best graphics and side art arcade 1 up has ever released, lighted deck with 8 color options, wifi and online world leaderboards, dip switch settings to customize difficulty and speed (software update even added rapid fire to Galaga ... and since it's wifi the update takes place as fast as adding an app to your phone)
I have 7 cabinets and this is by far my favorite. Even got some world high scores!

Thanks for the review! I have to say, I was impressed with their graphics on the STAR WARS cabinet and TEMPEST Atari Legacy Edition, of which I own. This one looks great as well. The lighted deck seems to be a new addition. Good to know!

93Vet's Questions
Retrogaming fans and pop-culture enthusiasts have been clamoring for it, and here it is courtesy of Arcade1Up: the Atari Legacy CENTIPEDE Edition home arcade machine, for the first time in a form factor shaped just like the original classic arcade cabinet!
There are misleading images of this unit's screen size when showing Centipede. The game is a vertical game as it should be. However, there are photos of it being squashed or horizontal. Which is it?

Evolving from its 1958 beginnings as an amusement game manufacturer, Midway produced some of the hottest arcade games of the 80s and 90s, that have since been adapted into film, television, and much more.Their monsters-wreaking-havoc title Rampage~was a giant early hit, and then leaps in live action digitizing technology led to Mortal Kombat~, recognized as one of the most important titles in video game history. With it~s over the top darkly humorous gameplay and finishing moves, Mortal Kombat~became an instant franchise with iconic characters and enduring catch phrases.
So, what's the actual date of release now? Arcade 1up had it in March and Best Buy says Dec. 31, 2021. lol There are many of us eagerly awaiting to get this unit when Arcade 1up SAYS and sends an email stating it is READY for Preorder.

Does this come with a deck protector as well? I know the most recent ones have had it, but this does not specify.

Is the blu-ray included in the steelbook 4K Terminator 2 a region free disc?
![Terminator 2: Judgment Day - 4K Blu-Ray [Standard] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/c99c841c-1b1a-458d-b5aa-43fcefe752a0.jpg)
The Terminator returns in this explosive action-adventure spectacle. Now he's one of the good guys, sent back in time to protect John Connor, the boy destined to lead the freedom fighters of the future. Sarah Connor, John's mother, a quintessential survivor has been institutionalized for her warning of the nuclear holocaust she knows is inevitable. Together, the threesome must find a way to stop the ultimate enemy-the T-1000, the most lethal Terminator ever created.
Im seeing mixed reviews about atmos on this one. So does it have atmos or not? If not I thought all 4k movies already includes dolby atmos.
It does NOT have 7.1 Dolby Atmos. It has English DTS 5.1.
Well, when they put this one out, they restored the image of the film, and did not upgrade the soundtrack. Still sounds great on audio equipment and soundbars.
Sadly, not all 4K discs have Dolby 7.1.

Does this game actually have a working coin machine? How many games are on the arcade?
No, it is only a graphic on the front. It is a Legacy Edition, 12 in 1 cabinet.

How do you go to a different game without turning the machine off then back on?
Even if you do play a game, hold down the player 1 button and it will take you to the game select screen in a few seconds.

Is this the same size and weight as the ones in the arcades?
No, the weight is less because it is not the exact same size as the original Arcade version.

Does the machine come completely assembled or in multiple pieces?
Oh you have to put it together, but the instruction manuals with these cabinets are excellent.
The box it is in contains multiple pieces and parts.

Is this SQUARE aka "full screen" or is this widescreen format?
What is the screen/monitor size?
I have the Ms. Pac-Man unit with 4 games I got through Best Buy. This looks to be the same exact size screen, vertically.
I have the TEMPEST Legacy Edition also, and that is a smaller screen size at 17 inches, horizontal.

Does this Mrs Pac-Man have the speed hack/fast mode added to this cabinet?
Well, it does state it has the in game settings menu, and on my Pac-Man Legacy Edition which also has 12 games, you can change the speed on Pac-Man to make it super fast in the games settings menu. I am hoping they did it for this 12 game unit as well.
