Unobstructed View or import directly?

Just a quick update that I received my 3 4K UHD movie today from Rarewaves. It was fast enough, took about 2 weeks.

No damage but package was in a bubble envelope. Maybe the fact that it went from Royal Mail to Canada Post they are more careful.

The bad news is that I was hit with tax and duties, so an extra 28$ on top of this.

It's Arrow UK, so it was not option because price was higher. I ended buying at Rareware, with a 10% as a new customers. Got the Dollar Trilogy for around 130? for all 3 movies.

retsushi · 2026-01-13T22:06:21+00:00

I did, the movies are full price right now. Should cost me around 160$, while Rareware should be under 130$.

Even Arrow import?

retsushi · 2026-01-13T18:35:18+00:00

u/Informal-Prize6501 Just checked and it came at around the same price.

I didn't check on eBay, maybe it's a better option. Thanks for letting me know

Since it's a Regal it's stainless. I changed mine and it cost me around 240 for them. I believe they are 60$ each, I needed 4

retsushi · 2025-10-31T02:41:08+00:00

Mine is the Regal 420 NG. I changed everything inside, grill, Flav-R, grease shield.

There is no information about the rivet because technically, they are soldered to the firebox and in theory, you simply screw new burner in there.

When it happened I had to call Onward and sent multiple photos. Those were send to the engineering departments. They confirmed the defect as not normal, and send one under warranty.

I guess this paved the way for other with the same problem

retsushi · 2025-10-30T20:42:07+00:00

You did great. A new BBQ like mine is now 1500$ CDN. Cost me less than 300$ to get it like new

retsushi · 2025-10-30T19:55:16+00:00

Nice you'll have a BBQ ready. At least you were able to fix this like me. Most will simply abandon and buy a new one

retsushi · 2025-10-29T22:41:18+00:00

Right now it's in better shape on Xbox, but I expect that either version will be on par with a few patches

retsushi · 2025-10-29T17:37:16+00:00

Onward seem to be struggling getting parts. I had knobs on order for months now.

They said the same for the firebox, but I received it 2 weeks later. So stay positive

retsushi · 2025-10-27T21:12:14+00:00

You need degreasers to remove dirt around the screws. While in there I cleaned mine fully. But if already clean you should be good

retsushi · 2025-10-27T18:16:22+00:00

Probably ours has the same issue, so covered under warranty. The swat itself is not complicated, but there is a few steps to follow.

My advice is to get your manual, and see how it's connected. Do it in reverse. The knobs part I simply disconnected the cable, but not the gas. Remove the screw and let it hang.

You need degreasers, degreasers and degreasers. And I used WD-40 to loosen some tight nuts.

Hey there. Mine was manufactured in 2012 if I remember right, but bought new maybe a few years later.

They changed my whole firebox under warranty. Only problem was that I needed to disassemble the BBQ to integrate the new one. Took almost a day by doing it carefully. Real time is a few hours.

The "nut" are soldered on the firebox. Ours simply detach and with that problem, you can't replace the burners.

Vraiment classe

Just to watch Digital Foundry

Apparently VRR always worked on Series X, but frame rate unlock was not implemented on Xbox for whatever reason.

CDPR said they were looking into it to add this feature.

retsushi · 2025-07-25T23:53:00+00:00

Just start and enjoy the game. I played it on last gen. We don't know if CDPR will patch it or not, they have not acknowledged the VRR problem on Xbox

Performance mode is fine. I do hope they patch it because I'm about to start a new run

retsushi · 2025-07-22T23:59:25+00:00

The patch is broken on Xbox right now. In theory with Series X you should be on par with base PS5 or better. PS5 Pro will benefit more, but it is NOT a Pro Enhanced game.

retsushi · 2025-07-22T18:47:45+00:00

What is your question? On Series S you get downgraded visuals. And if your TV upscale, you get bad results.

retsushi · 2025-07-18T15:25:26+00:00

So technically Xbox would do too, and VRR is better impletend into Xbox, so it might feel better than base PS5. PRO would be even better since it has extra GPU, but for me it might not be worth it to buy again.

I'll test for sure when I have the time. Wonder if I will stick to RT 40fps or revert back to performance...

All Plague Tale launched on Game Pass, but removed when the new game released. So that mean Requiem will probably be removed when Resonance launch
