Wish they would just fix the lag in Xbox Live.

The lag in live is probably either your net connection or the fact that you are playing with people the other side of the world.

I never notice any lag in live unless I am playing someone on a crap connex. Most of the people I play with are overseas, too. It's one of the great things about live, IMO.

and Japan pricing as well?

That's a good question. Why is Kyodo talking about US prices on the 360? That doesn't affect us at all. 360 prices were revised here not so long ago, though.

I am more than sure it is supposed to hit all. I have a JN and US 360, but just make sure that the Elite has the Jasper chip in it.

What are you using? If you are using ADSL, you are going to get major lag.

gogogo: they will but at the dollar rate about 2 years ago.

So an Xbox Elite has 120 GB but can you fill it up with photos and music? If so, it's probably worth buying instead of a typical PC.

No. More than half the games are region free but many big titles aren't. Really stupid move by MS.

Really stupid move by MS.

When have they ever done anything that wasn't a stupid move in the last decade?

unrested, pawatan, Youdontknow: Buy the asian version from hong kong online (play-asia.com for example), you get english / international versions that work on the Japanese xbox360. It's 100% legit, original products, cheaper and comes out quicker than the Japanese version.
