Anyone know if it's gonna be released here? Or where I can get a region 1 or 0 DVD?

I got it while in Japan, but I haven't seen any other NTSC releases. (Japan is Region 2 NTSC)

Everywhere else I've seen it, it has been PAL Region 2 (for UK and Aus)

you could buy the Jap release and then rip on HD and remove the region code. At least the Jap version will be NTSC.

? Isn't US equipment all dual standard yet? I think everything from the last 8 or so years here in Oz is equally PAL and NTSC (except the TV transmissions).

sadly no...you still have to go looking for PAL/NTSC stuff online.

This series has been surprisingly good so far...

I accidently purchased this on ebay without paying attention to the region. I received it and thought "oh no region 2". I popped it in my Xbox anyway to see what would happen and it worked!!! I don't know if it would work for everyone but it might be worth a shot.

the xbox and new xbox 360 are multiregional. if you want to change you code without going through all that crap, go to videohelp.com and type in your dvd player. there are thousands to choose from, so it most likely will work. i did this to watch revolver and it work great

I bought the Spaced TV series on Region 2 DVD, though I live in America, and it doesn't play in any XBox360.

If you have a DVD drive on your computer, download a program called ANyDVD (from anydvd.com). It's wonderful because it disables the region coding on your DVDs so you can watch them on your computer regardless of region!
