jb, both discs play just fine in my home DVD player. I have a Sony DVP-S530D (which isn't a top-of-the-line player, although I love it), and I have had no problems playing any type of DVD in it. There are, supposedly, some DVD-ROM only contents, but I haven't found the need to add a DVD-ROM to my PC yet. As for your "region" errors, are you certain that the disc itself does not have a different region format? I bought my Final Fantasy DVD at Wal-Mart here in Missouri, and have had absolutely no problems with it. (Other than an out-of-synch glitch between the audio and video from time to time... but all of my DVD discs seem to have this problem from time to time, for some reason. I think the player might need cleaning, heh heh.) After reading this forum, I went back and watched the 2nd disc again. There are facial textures shown for Dr. Sid's face, and the "evil" military guy's leather coat (whatever his name is). When they start talking about Aki, they show various stages of the 3D rendering process (rough and final renders without hair, then various stages of hair). The section about Aki seems to be focused on how they animated her hair, more than anything. Interesting, but still no usable textures (that I could see, anyhow). But my primary interests are vehicles and aircraft modeling, so the "Scale Comparisons Workshop" (showing the Bandit "Hummer", Quattro 4-wheeled rover, and Black Boa) interested me the most. --Clint
