Default Differences between the two Seven Swords releases?

Does anyone know what, if any, differences are present between these two copies of Seven Swords?

http://www.amazon.com/Seven-Swords-B...5436812&sr=1-2



http://www.amazon.com/Seven-Swords-B...5436812&sr=1-4

as far as I can tell they will both play in a Region A ps3 which is what I have. But that the second link is an import and that is why it is so much more. Unless there are differences in PQ or AQ. Any information would be great. Thanks.

The second one is the imported disk from Hong Kong. The official release is the one from Dragon Dynasty. Imported disks are always super expensive, $50 or higher. The price should be the obvious clue. Most catalogue titles are generally around $20, but don't exceed $30. IMpports will have a higher price.

Was thinking about getting the Dragon Dynasty Blu of "Seven Swords".

Now, I know that it only has lossy 5.1 sound, but what about the PQ?
Any differences between the US and HK versions?
If there is absolutely no advantage in the PQ of the US DD, then the HK is the clear winner?

That's what the review is for

Yes, I know both these reviews (one for the HK and one for the US).

However, they seem not to be comparable as different reviewers made those two reviews. Also, there is no real comparison made in either of the reviews between the two releases.

It comes down to this. If you don't have a 7.1 setup or really do not care about it, go with the US...

1- Save $20+
2- Looks Great

I own it and love it.
