Here is a cheap BD player that should work fine.
If you're just playing computer games tho, and you don't have an HDCP video card and monitor, you're better off with just another DVD drive

I've seen the lowest around 120~ , http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827106227 , this should be fine for just watching movies, if you want to burn brdvd's look to spend about 300~
