You don't have to buy a new TV now. A lot of games are great, even on a regular TV. Although to really enjoy it, HD is the best. I'd wait till after Christmas or wait until the price goes down. They're still more expansive than in the US, even if Canadian dollar is higher. :grumble:

Until the warehouses gets new stuff, will pay $500 more for the same thing. If you're near the boarder, I'd suggest buying it in the US.

ahhh i see well i'm not in a rush to buy a new tv for my room, i can always steal the regular crt tv in my parents room. :hehe:
i'll wait next year as you suggested.

360 Outsells PS3 in Japan
X360 weekly sales have jumped in Japan during the week ending on November 4. Apparently, 17,673 units were sold, which is a huge leap when we look at earlier sales data. What's more to the point, Microsoft's console has outmatched its counterpart, the PS3, though not by much - 17,434 PS3 units were sold during the same week. (Yeah, big deal! Since when was Japan a good market for the Playstation?! - 2Lions)

Here's the full Japanese hardware sales chart, as compiled by Media Create:

# Nintendo DS - 78,599
# PSP - 59,714
# Wii - 37,617
# Xbox 360 - 17,673
# PlayStation 3 - 17,434
# PlayStation 2 - 10,209
# Game Boy Advance SP - 206
# GameCube – 155
# Game Boy Micro - 113

Looking at Japanese software sales, the recently released 360 title Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation, sold almost 80,000 copies in its first week, thus taking second place on software charts and most likely adding to X360 sales in Japan. Source

Grrr.. i didn't want to get a 360 just to place AC6. :grumble: :grumble: :usuck: :usuck:

The graphics are awesome. Tons of particles and the level of details on the ground... :drooling: Playing the demo gave me shivers. It makes the rendering in gears of war looks like pac man.


The 2nd best game is: minna no takoyaki to pantsu.

Ooo... i've been looking for a copy of that game... i can't wait to get my new tv and play that! :twisted:

I figured out how to play that without a TV. :dancing: :woot:

I hope you were playing a multiplayer game. :hehe:

You won't regret it. I bought the game yesterday. Ace Combat 6, not the other one. ;) I got the pack with the stick and the face plate. ($150) I takes a few minutes to get used to it, but it's worth it. It may take you longer, if you're not used to handle a big stick. :P

I checked the top 50 or 60 players. 90% of them are Japanese. I checked a few of them and most of them are new 360 owners. They never played a game besides AC6. This game is really a blessing for MS in Japan. :D

call of duty 4 looks soo sick, i love my ps3. lol

Haven't tried it yet. I bought Mario Galaxy today. So many games, so little time. :sweat:

bought myself nba 2k8 along with madden 07(it was 20 bucks so i had to)

Currently playing FF tactics War of the lions on PSP, a very nice remake (although there's a couple of differences, so I've heard) anyone play PSP here? because of the hectic schedule, I've resorted to handheld games for these months, still catches alot of fun though :mrgreen:

I was wondering if anyone could help me. I love MMORPGs like Tales of Pirates but unfortunately my video card in my laptop is not up to par. I have an SIS M760GX. Does anyone have any good MMORPGs (that are free preferbly) that can work with my video card. I played Maple Story and it worked fine but had a couple of glitches yet it is not what I am looking for in a MMORPG
