locating a copy of The Games


Does anyone know if this wonderful show was ever released on NTSC,
Region 1 DVD? And, either way, can it even be purchased anywhere?? I'm trying
desperately to track the show down, ever since I caught part of it on
the local PBS station in Boston. I NEED to see the whole thing and no one seems to sell it.

According to the markings on the DVD packet, the Games DVD season 1 isn't regionally encoded. At the very least, head to shop.abc.net.au -- your official games retailer -- and search for the disc.

i have emailed with the abc and they said it is not available and at the moment they have no plans to make it available.

i too have been searching for this series for a number of years.

Umbrella Entertainment have the DVD rights and in a recent email from them they said that they will release series 2 at the start of next year.

The Games series 1 is currently on the abc.net.au/shop website, for $35.95, as of tonight!

reply

That is really weird, because I have emailed Umbrella Entertainment a number of times and they keep saying that the Games Series 2 has no plans to be released. Many people have had different replies. Whats up?

Season 1 is easy to get. The cheapest I can see is on DeVoteD DVD which is around AU$28 (approx US$22) including standard airmail to anywhere in the World.
