Yeah I noticed about season two and I agree that (the) orange bricks are crap and (for you/us?) to stick with Dragon Box episodes.

I feel tempted to grab it. I can never have enough of Raditz vs. Farmer with the shotgun.

I downloaded the first episode of Season 2 and surprisingly I watched it all (I only got to around 8 minutes of the first episode of Season 1). I realized how much of an improvement Monica Rial is as Bulma over Tiffany Vollmer. Also I haven't watched Season 2 since around 2007, and WOW are the colors ever bleached. Muten Roshi in the hospital was blending in with the walls.

I have just downloaded the 2 free episodes. I have never watched the Season Set footage episodes past the first season (I rented it on Netflix when it came out) and haven't seen it since. I am curious to watch these for comparison sake, since I have the Dragon Boxes and Kai episodes. So, this will definitely be interesting.

How does the video quality compare to the Season Set DVDs?

It's the same footage. The PSN release isn't one of their HD offerings, so it's the same old 480p.

I grabbed the episodes and it was like putting the Season set dvds in my PS3 back in 2007.

Sorry for the stupid question, but I can't seem to find these episodes on the PS Store. :\

Could it have something to do with the fact that even though I have a US account I can't see them, because my actual location is different?

Yes, that would be the reason. Even if you have made a U.S. account the PSN Video Store can track your I.P.

Ah, I see. That's what I thought anyway. Makes sense. Thanks for the info. :)

The Orange Brick footage actually looks pretty good on a PSP screen.

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but they also just added DBZ to Xbox Live.
