~ Escape From Alcatraz in 4K UHD with slipcover ~
on December 12, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
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.
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.
Highly recommended!

Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Slyvester Stallone star in this action thriller about a prison that is seemingly escape proof.
Stallone is a man hired by companies to investigate whether or not their prisons can be escape proof. If they are found with problems, he's the man to find it.
On one such mission, he finds himself in the midst of a brutal warden out to break him.
He befriends Arnold's character, and they both work on a plan to escape.
Together they uncover a plot to keep one or both of them there permanently.
The movie looks and sounds amazing in 4K UHD.
Good quality here and one of the best with these two.
Highly recommended!
We get a nice 4K, digital copy, and a Blu-ray copy of the movie.

The BEST version of this release ever. The Steelbook is gorgeous. We get a nicely done slipcover for it with different artwork altogether.
This is only the 4K release, Steelbook, digital copy.
It looks and sounds better than ever.
One of Arnold's great '80s classics starring the late
Richard Dawson (Family Feud) as the lead bad guy.
Maria Conchita Alonso brings up the beautiful eye candy for the movie.
A great set to get!

It's not a lot of fun when you have to spend Christmas Eve stuck in your sorority house. It's even worse when a bloodthirsty psycho slides down your chimney, hides in the attic, and begins to make anonymous threatening phone calls.

Widescreen; Soundtrack English; Subtitles English. Three-disc set.

~ BLACK CHRISTMAS gets the 4K release! ~
on December 10, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Unbelievably freaky horror movie of its time and still holds up today!
Margot Kidder (Superman, The Amityville Horror), John Saxon (A Nightmare on Elm Street I and III), Olivia Hussey
(Jesus Of Nazareth) star in this intense thriller about a Sorority House terrorized by a homicidal lunatic that takes refuge in the attic, unbeknownst to the sisters during Christmas holiday season.
The sisters start to receive these perverted and horrific calls on the phone and seek help from the local police to identify the culprit.
In time, they think they have narrowed down the suspect, but it is not all what it seems.
This movie, although made the year after The Exorcist, is just as scary as it was then. A tense thriller, but not for the younger viewers.
The 4K looks good for a 1974 fllm mostly done at night to showcase the Christmas lights, scenery, etc.
Nice slipcover, 3-disc set!
Get this one now for a horror Christmas good time!

Verified Purchase:Yes
1987's comedy holiday release of Trains, Plains, and Automobiles finally makes it to 4K UHD.
This is a good release, but be aware this is only the 4K/Digital code. The Blu-ray included here as a bonus is only special features.
A nice slipcover is also provided.
The Blu-ray version has previously been released a number of times.
The movie looks and sounds good.
It is not a super improvement over the Blu-ray version, but glad to have it now as part of the 4K library.
If you already own the Blu-ray, I would say keep it.
Otherwise, you can get this one, a bonus special features blu-ray, digital code, and slipcover.

~ THE WARRIORS Blu-ray steelbook ~
on December 8, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
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.
The DVD here is okay, with specks of dirt throughout the movie.
A solid 4 stars here but could have been better.
I recommend if you do not own the steelbook and digital code.

~ SPIDER-MAN Trilogy comes to 4K UHD ~

Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
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.
The discs were stacked on top of each other rather than putting them in a 3-disc holder.
I did it myself and now it looks much better and easier to handle them in their own space.
Find a good deal on this set and get it!
Tobey does a great job in this original set.
I recommend!

What a great movie this is and Ron Pearlman does a great job as the main character.
It looks and sounds great now in the upgraded 4K UHD format!
The steelbook is great also, not stellar, but better than a plain one. Love it.
We get the 4K, Blu-ray edition and nice digital copy.
Steelbook was dent and scratch free even after taking off the "J card".
Sometimes dents can be hidden underneath the paper description attached to it aka the J card.
I am a steelbook collector and this is definately a must buy.

~ Blow Out on 4K from Criterion ~
on October 28, 2022
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
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).
The movie looks really good here on 4K, probably the best it has ever looked.
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.

Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it's good.
By laopwh
Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it is a good movie set in 1980.the music score is what makes the movie really good because new score is all done by Queen. What makes the steelbook really good as it's the 40th anniversary of the movie itself. Anybody knows the story behind Flash Gordon knows the story itself. Flash Gordon, Dale Arden, and Doctor Zarcough have to find a way to stop Earth's destruction. Not knowing that Ming the Merciless is behind everything and Earth's destruction. Having the 40th anniversary edition come out on steelbook is worth every penny.

Step right up to the counter and play away. Arcade1Up's next generation of countercades is here in a new form factor. Take it right out of the box, plug it in, and start gobbling up pellets. Perfect for home bars, offices, dorm rooms, or anywhere else you'd want to squeeze in some retro gaming, Arcade1Up~s countercades are compact in size, but always an enormous amount of fun. Yep, here she is. Possibly a diva but most definitely an icon, Ms. Pac-Man. Guide her way through those mazes while evading Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Sue. In the mood to switch it up? You've also got the classics Pac-Man, Plus, Galaga, and Dig Dug all inside. Featuring authentic gameplay with real feel controls, Arcade1Up's countercades are the way to bring that classic arcade experience home, even if you're short on space.

Smaller than the previous countercades and uses different size power supply. Cabinet looks great. Sound is adjustable which is a definite improvement from gen 1 countercades.

Hi, I have Ms. Pac-Man on a tabletop version and it is exact like the genuine ARCADE version from early 80s. In the original version of the game she starts out slow and then she speeds up as you clear a few screens, around the PEACH and APPLE stages.
Is it the same here on the countercade version?
Of interest concerning MS., PAC-MAN on my tabletop, there are several versions of the game. These are the only ones that I know of:
MS. PAC-MAN Original
MS. PAC-MAN Speed-Up
MS. PAC-MAN Plus
MS. PAC-ATTACK

Since you bought it from BEST BUY, give them the receipt and ask for a replacement or a refund since it was damaged and defective. BEST BUY is the seller and they are responsible.

Another great package from Arcade1up
By TRAINMAN0703
The very best aspect of this over Arcade1up's original Pac-Man offering is the upgraded monitor. The original Pac-Man's image would wash out when you looked at it from a slight angle. This rendition does not do that. The image is bright and crisp from any angle. The monitor is also set further back in the cabinet and tilted more, which does not sound like much on paper until you actually play it and compare it to the real arcade machine.
I buy these things solely with modifications in mind, therefore I did not play any of the included games right out of the box. For those who do not "mod" these, the assortment of games is a vast improvement over the chintzy offering of a mere 2 Pac-titles in the last Pac-Man cabinet. I am baffled by the inclusion of "Galaga" however. Pac-Man's "lady friend" would have been great here, but she is getting her own royal treatment (and deservedly so) soon. I must point out that they did change the way the control panel mounts to the cabinet and how the lower two front-facing panels (these are also slightly resized) directly below said control panel install. Because of the alteration(s) to the control panel, you cannot just slide in/out the panels below it, which will make for a tricky assembly process. The shape of the cabinet itself is another notable improvement as it veers much closer to capturing the profile of the real thing. The speakers (yes, speakerS) are now housed behind/under the marquee, which is also far more arcade-like not just in looks but also sound reproduction.
The light-up marquee, light-up (albeit non-prototypical) control deck, bar stool and riser make this package the best value of any Pac-Man 40th anniversary offering, as separate-sale risers are VERY hard to come by; and, to my knowledge, the 40th anniversary-themed bar stool is not sold separately at all. Again, I will gripe that the design on the riser does not look like a natural extension of the cabinet. The faux-wood grain should be on the sides and the black in the front. Oh well. This can be fixed with after-market graphics for those who really feel the need. I think I personally would have preferred the cabinet to be yellow like the 1980 prototype, but the "cabaret" models of the time did indeed have a wood grain finish, albeit with no graphics.
If you did not get the original Pac-Man cabinet from Arcade1up, this is most certainly worthy of consideration. Other than the slightly trickier assembly, this is an improvement in almost every way.

40th Anniversary Special Edition from Best Buy..
September 15, 2020
Hi, great review of the newer version of PAC-MAN from Arcade1up. I am going to get this one for my upcoming 54th bday! Yes, I am showing my age, but, I was 13 when the original cabinet came out. I loved it then and I still love it now. I would have to agree with you on the riser part as per the graphics, but, I think they were going for a contrast look. Agreed also, they should have continued the wood grain on the sides and kept the black on the front to make it look uniform. I do love the SPECIAL EDITION from Best Buy. Not only do you get the light up aspects of the unit, you also get the stand with the graphics.
My only complaint would be the unit having the AUDIO switch setting too loud if you go beyond 1.

That's too bad. I think you got a glitch in the part where the circuit board is. I had the original GALAGA/GALAXIAN game and in some games on the GALAXIAN the screen froze up right in the middle of playing. I was not a happy person. I got rid of it and sold it cheap to someone else that wanted GALAGA, which had no issues.
SUPER PAC-MAN is going to be on the MS. PAC-MAN cabinet coming soon AND there is a SUPER PAC-MAN cabinet from COSTCO that has it on it's own. This just came out within a few days to a week. September 15, 2020. You have to go to COSTCO and find someone with a membership to purchase. You cannot get it online to my knowledge.

Ms PacMan Cabinet
By Oval
Packaging was great and care has been taken to protect the parts in transit. Assembly was about 1.5-2 hours from start to finish. I was taking my time to make sure I didn’t scratch any pcs during assembly. The cabinet looks great and the light up marquee really makes it stand out. The graphics on the riser add a nice touch as well. The cabinet comes with dual speakers and the sound quality is good. I bought the cabinet for Ms Pac-Man but having Dig Dug was a bonus. Overall I’m really happy with my purchase and would recommend.

Definitive!!!
By SirDevoidOfHate
The definitive collection, and probably the last one you’ll ever need (unless they do a 4K release in the future). The first four films have never looked better, period! And if you’re a 3D supporter (we’re a dying breed these days, but we’re out there!) then you will love finally having a proper 3D release of Part 3! Also, having the Unrated Cut of Jason Goes to Hell is a major plus! The bonus features are very informative, though it’s a shame that the Crystal Lake Memories documentary isn’t included. That’s not to take away from what Scream Factory put together. This is an AMAZING collection!

Uncut version of JGTH/Jason X
October 31, 2020
HI, I have this set as well from Shout! Factory and it appears there is a minor audio issue with Jason X. A sound effect is not present when Jason goes to kill a woman character in the movie.
JGTH seems to be missing a scene from other reviewers I have read on. I am not worried about this as I have the UNRATED DVD from Lionsgate already.

Excellent movie. Not perfect, but great movie.
By Misterday
Great movie. But so removed from the original animated movie, you might enjoy it more if you consider them to not have anything to do with each other. There’s no music, no Mushu, no romance. The only real thing making it a Mulan movie is her name is Mulan. They don’t do a great job of making you feel like she’s a boy in the army. It’s a lazy gender bend if you ask me. But the movie has everything a live action Disney movie can want or need. Great story, great special effects, great score, great action and emotion. Just don’t compare it to the cartoon too much and you’ll like it a lot more.

Very pleased, excellent transfer
By NateC
Unlike some other buyers, luckily my copy came right on time and in perfect condition.
The movies themselves are phenomenally mastered with crisp picture, robust hdr color/contrast, and awesome 4k textures I've never seen before on previous inferior versions. These look excellent in my home theater and serve as the new showcase for my system (which used to be Mad Max: Fury Road). The steelbooks are attractive and come with cushioning foam in the slipcase to protect them from rubbing against each other.
Not as much extra content (i.e. The Appendices) as previous versions, so I'll need to keep my old copy as well.

Excellent 1up Arcade game cabinet!
By PacManPlayer
Brings back memories of hanging out at the Arcade with a pocket full of quarters when I was young. My daughter absolutely loves it and we enjoy seeing who can get the high score on this 40th Anniversary Pac-Man. The custom stool is nice and the backlit Marquis and control deck is really nice. The led control deck has a button on the right that can change the colors or slowly rotate through all the colors. The replay value is good for the list of Pac-Man games plus you get Galaga! Very happy.

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.

Does it have adjustable speed for ms Pac-Man? They use to sell them back then with ability of speeding the entire game up. Made it more challenging

Hey Robin, it looks like they have it in the setup menu where you can go in and change settings, etc. for each game. I have 2 Legacy Editions, and that is a new feature on those. This one looks to be the same, with 12 games in all. I have the original Ms. Pac-Man with 4 games cabinet, and you cannot adjust the game settings on that one.

Where is the preorder button for this? All I see is coming soon...what gives?

All I see is COMING SOON at BEST BUY and GAMESTOP says it is not available. Not sure they know what they are doing when it comes to actually having it ready for PREORDER.

When do you charge a customers credit card on a pre-order

Hi, I just ordered mine today, 28 January, pre-order, and Best Buy sent me an email stating that I WOULD NOT be charged until the item itself is shipped. Which is currently March 30th, 2021 on release day. Anytime I have pre-ordered items here on Best Buy with my account, I have NEVER been charged prior to the item shipping or pickup in person. That is a fact.

Set up your gaming room with this Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man arcade game console. The classic upright design has a midsize profile for seamless fitting in tight spaces, while the 17-inch LCD screen offers crisp visuals for complete immersion. This Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man arcade game console features four games for a complete nostalgic experience, and the coinless operation allows unlimited play.
 

I don't see an option for extended warranty. 30 day warranty is not long enough. Is there some way of getting an extended warranty?

Yeah, I got this directly from BEST BUY and it does not have an extended warranty. You could ask the GEEK Squad there for info.

Does the game come with the riser as shown? Also, is the the fast version or the slow version of Ms. Pac-Man?

Yes, it comes with a custom riser. The Ms. PAC MAN on this is the actual arcade version. It gradually speeds up, it is NOT the FAST version.

So this cabinet shows Ms Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Galaxian, and Super Pac Man. The other cabinets I have seen show Ms Pac-Man, Galaxian, Pac Mania, and Pac Man Plus. Are different retailers getting different versions.

Yes, WAL MART has it, but it has the different games PAC MANIA and PAC MAN PLUS. It does NOT have the light up marquee or the custom riser, either.

On Game stop.com they have the exact same cabinet with the light at marquee will Best Buy do a price match because that one is $50 cheaper

The Best Buy one has the custom riser and the light up marquee. If GAMESTOP has that on the unit, then get it cheaper. Also, the games may vary depending on the seller.
