They weren't the type that was CD intensive though but at least the cut-scenes were. Didn't see any problems there. If the AOpen DVD drive looks like a good product, it's because it is. Although the appearance of the drive looks ordinary don't let that fool you into thinking otherwise. For the cost and performance it is relatively good compared to some of the other drives I have seen.
Performance is better than the other drives too.
The CD-ROM performance ain't bad either for what it can do. My only gripe is that the drive does not come with any software bundled and that it is possibly region locked. That may be its weak selling point. Otherwise, it is a pretty good buy as it is priced very close to its more established competitors like Pioneer and Sony. Click picture below.
