One thing I was wondering about the PS3....can you play imported PS2 games without modifying it? Actually a fairly big selling point to me, because I would want to have something to play Transformers Tatakai on, & if it dosen't I'd also have to get a PS2 & modify that...& guess which one I'd be more likely to do, given the price of the PS3?

I as well as has not understood appeared PS3 in USA or no ? If yes then which what games.

Gundam, Armored Core, GTA, isn't there a Akira Toriyama/Final Fantasy game being put in the works for the 360 as well?

No reason to get a PS3.

Actually, 360 is getting a different Gundam game, which is good, because I hear the one that just came out for PS3 sucked.

Akira Toriyama/Final Fantasy? Don't even joke, that makes me think there's going to be another Chrono Trigger.

I don't want that kind of disappointment!

Yeah, the Gundam game for the PS3 looked horrible, and is horrible. The water is apparently more like a gelatinous mass that goes through the ground when you go into it. Controls are wonky, and it's just plain out bad.

The Gundam game for the 360, Mobile Ops: The One Year War, looks freakin' awesome, plus they've stalled the release for a long ass time, so hopefully they're making it even better than it looks.

Also Blue Dragon is the game I'm talking about. It looks awesome so far.

It's region-locked, so no, you can't. Not to mention I haven't heard any word on PS3 ModChips.

But to play even American PS2 games, you have to buy the $600 dollar version, unless you don't mind starting from scratch every time you play.

Well, I believe you just convinced me. Looks like I'm gonna have more money to spend on Wii & 360 games......unless the letters F, F, V, I, & I happen to show up in realtion to a PS3 remake.

Well if I will buy the PS3 just with modchip to play the newest Guilty Gear games.
