why? seriously, what is the point of this exercise?

i loved my MiniDisc and NetMD devices. Very rad pre-ipod technology.

I've not played Crysis 2, but i found Homefront to be a pretty disappointing CoD clone.

I don't know that i'd call these systems knock offs of current consoles - mostly 8/16bit era hardware clones or basically supe'd up mp3 players with emulators built in.

I really have no idea what to make of this game, but i appreciate the effort Atlus has put behind bringing it here to NA...

Spoiler alert - they all end up being Cylons.

I've actually read about this nonsense on of all places, a conspiracy/alien themed message board.

I *really* hope you're wrong about DQX. I've enjoyed every step of the way through DQ9, which has really gotten me rather hyped for 10 :(

so i'm guessing odds are slim that we'll see this in NA, right?

I do, and have since the PS2 days. I have a modest 5.1 setup that really fits my living room - i honestly couldn't' imagine going back to gaming without surround sound.

interesting - thanks for the video! my curiosity has been satisfied :)

it's probably the guts of one of the many chinese PMP devices that'll play various ROMs and video files with an a/v out jack. i'd love to see one in action just for fun.

in this day and age? good luck with that.

I'd be willing to bet American currency that those who claim pinball is "kiddie crap" can't play worth a damn.

It sure did, but that was a home console version (wii) - thus far all the portable monster hunter titles have only had ad hoc multiplayer.

You can say that again! If/When Monster Hunter comes to the 3DS I do hope it allows for proper online play and not just local multiplayer like the Freedom series.

are Kinect and a new TV things you both want? If so, then go for it. Otherwise, don't.

It is - i was hoping the iphone 5 would be announced back at WWDC, so i held out (and well yeah, we know how that went). Ah well, my contract is up next month and i'll probably just go with an iphone 4.

this looks kinda rad, but i fear my aging iphone 3g simply won't deliver an optimal experience. bah!

DQX as a Wii U launch title would ensure the system sells like crazy in Japan. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!
