I fail at waiting! I just ordered the LE version this afternoon! Hopefully, I'll see it around Monday or so. There's no major differences that I know of between the US and Japanese PSPs, at least for the older version. The slim version may have more, but nothing major. You'll still be able to play US games on the Japanese machine, you just won't be able to play non-Japanese video UMDs. The one difference that's immediately noticeable is that the X and O buttons are reversed for the PSP's menu and Japanese games. American games will still use the X and O buttons as normal.

Ordering this game with my next paycheck!

My guilty pleasure is that I don't hate disco. And I liked Totally Spies, too!

Well, Gubaba, I'm VERY interested in reading your translations of the novels. I've had them sitting in my collection for years, over 20 to be exact, and have been dieing to see what happens in them.

That's because quite a few of the US releases are technically for all of North America. This means you have Spanish for Mexico and French for the Canadian province of Quebec. Sorry about going off-topic there.

I'm totally with you Mr March. I don't understand all the Ranka hate, either.

I don't understand all the Ranka hate! While I don't actually hate her, I liked Myung the least out of all the female protagonists.

The VF-0 was most likely using its manuevering verniers to move under water. When Shin uses battroid mode, you can clearly see him using the backpack thrusters to move.

The VF-1 and presumably the VF-0 are considered "all-environment" variable fighter, so I would assume that limited under water use would be within their capabilities.

To prevent humanity from sharing the same fate as themselves.

Yep, I finally broke down and bought myself a slim PS3 on Friday. The lack of BC is a non-issue with me since my PS2 is still fully functional.

Whoops! I totally misread your post, Master Dex!

No, it's a completely new game. A sequel if you will.

Besides, what you can do an import, you can also do to an American muscle car.

I was treated to a nice little surprise earlier this evening. While I was down at the beach, I had the pleasure of seing a B-17 flying over the ocean. Sadly, I wasn't able to get my phone out in time to get a picture of it. Still, it was a very impressive sight.

I've been pretty lucky in the technology department. The only thing that I've owned that didn't go very far was my PDA. I think I'm one of the few people here that doesn't consider the TurboGrafx-16 as a machine that went nowhere. That's probably because I had actually bought the Japanese PC Engine DUO and had a friend that could readily get me the Japanese games for it.

There was no such line the last time that I saw a B-1B at an airshow. People seemed much more interested in the C-17! Go figure.

Until I actually read the post, I thought that the two Valkyries and the Regult were actually physical toys or models instead of CG models.

I see that I'm not the only person who wasn't too fond of Wikus. Great movie, though. I think I'll be buying this one when it comes out on DVD!

Must... have.. more... Megazone... books!

That other series of models would be Fang of the Sun Dougram, Wanzerfan. I actually had a couple of those models.

All I can say is that I was totally right! I told my friends that , but they all dismissed it.

There is an "overboost" setting on the throttle of the VF-1, which I'm guessing could be some sort of afterburner.

What, Macross The First isn't Mikimoto enough for you?

Was I just not seeing it or is the complete series available only on Blu-Ray?
