For some reason,I'm more interested in finding that familiar employee who mans the 360 counter.

he works at the Micky D's across the street. They pay better and he gets more customers

If I were in Japan already, they probably would have photographed me with 3 different game versions, guidebooks and the two consoles. :lol :lol

I frequent all the stores in the news articles, too.

I can totally see the cashier saying: why the FUCK are you buying the 360 version, motherfucker? You're Japanese.

The question remains, which version will outsell which?

If the last several multiplatform games have been any indication, the PS3 version easily.

it was a joke. goddam.

They might be one of those people who will just resell the whole package after beating the game once. Hence the cheaper bundle is the way to go.

I hope this is the case so I can get a used version of this bundle for cheaper in a few weeks. :D

A true RE fan would have flown to Japan to have pictures taken of him so he could add that to his collection!
Also I didn't realize you'd moved back.

Was there until last August, going back for grad school on March 20.
I knew you were going back since you were selling a bunch of stuff, I just didn't know you didn't go back yet. I'm off by two weeks. :(

Why Did Only Xbox 360 Resident Evil 5 Go On Sale First?

......

The race for a million and change begins.

That article is full of shit. Street dates get broken all the time in Japan at smaller retailers. The only time I've ever been able to get a game early back in the states was when 7-11 recently started selling video games and I was able to get a copy of Gears 2 days ahead of time because the guy at the register had no idea what it was and failed to notice the "Do not sell before XX/XX/XXXX" sticker.

I love the people who couldn't care less about GAME X coming in to threads about GAME X and bitching because said thread exists. It's beautiful.
