Alright, so we all know that we're far behind the rest of the world for game releases, which sucks. What games are you looking forward to, though? And also, do you import?

I can't wait for Tekken 5, I saw the opening movie on the official site and its god. I want.

Getting PSP on import is gonna be helluva lot cheaper, apparently, 'cause the games are universal so you can play them on PSP's from any country.

Don't know where you got yours from but I got a DS with game for £115 back in November.

As for game's. I'm looking forward to Final Fantasy XII, Pro Evolution Soccer 5, Burnout 4 and the new Zelda game.

Is that that really weird looking game with the laughing exploding zombies and the Assasin with 6 different personas?

Yup, there's a NTSC (Japan) version, a NTSC (USA) version and an international version for the rest of us. :p

If I wanted, I could get a PSP in a week alot cheaper. But I'm getting an Ipod. xD

Harman, Garcian, Dan, Kaede, Con, Coyote, Kevin and Maske De Smith.

Technically, that's 8, but the Killer7 are the 7 assassin personalities of Harman Smith.

Wicked style, hot guns, and Capcom, you can't lose.

I have an import PS2 and my friend was selling her cubay, so I'll have an import one of those shortly. The X-Box is PAL, but when I move up to the next-gen consoles I'll be getting NTSC all the way.

First, it's usually cheaper and I can't remember it ever working out more expensive.

Second, I get stuff much, much earlier.

Third, I get stuff that doesn't ever see PAL releases. To name a popular game as an example; Katamari Damacy. That's right. I'm not talking about the relatively obscure stuff we've missed like oh, say, Xenogears, Tales Of Destiny, and Lunar (Xenogears cost me around $90 to get an import copy of. Worth it, but damn steep anyways.), but rather one of the most amazing games of the year. (On a sidenote, I was pretty surprised to see the .hack games out over here.)

Fourth, I'm moving to the US one of these days. No point having a PAL system over there.

I'm just looking forward to getting my copies of WoW and RE4 :D (I know I could have both of those here, but the cubay deal is explained above. As for WoW, if I got a UK version I'd not be able to play on US servers. Most of my friends who have it already play on US servers. Easy decision to make. I also imported FFXI and CoH way before their UK releases.)

At least non-MMORPG PC games don't tend to mess us around much.

There's only two games I'm even remotely excited about : Half Life 2 Expansion and Dungeon Siege 2.
