Taiwan vs Criterion Samurai series

[limubai2000]

Does anyone know if the Power Multimedia versions of Samurai 1,2 & 3 are worth getting? How do they compare to the Criterion versions?

Since I'm going to Taiwan again in 3 weeks I want to figure out if I should avoid these or seek them out.

Thanks in advance.

The better is Criterion most definitely. Don’t waste your money on the Power Multimedia versions because there are entire scenes missing (AACK!)
