I doubt atleast people in Japan are gonna fall in the "360 JRPG's" trap again

as SO4 & TOV are on PS3 now, with heavy rumors of TLR coming

What 360 trap? What is wrong with you? It's a god damned system and I feel horrible for those who got screwed in Japan because the majority are biased to an American made system. Hopefully they have PS3's as well as their 360's. I also hope they enjoy their western titles which are popular in the west and niche titles in Japan. I feel the same way, because I have to now split my 360 and PS3 collection the same way between western devs and eastern devs. I can totally relate with them. Psh.......360 trap my ass.

I agree, but you can't deny that the 360 is much worse built than the Japanese products either when you look at their track record, all electronics break, but it shouldn't be that often, the fail rate is simply too high and Asian people are all about value so therefore you can't blame them for being biased toward American products in general. The things that Americans build really well in general are: weapons and Boeing airplanes, electronics is not their forte unless you go into military grade stuff which is on a completely different level =P.

That has nothing to do with a devs decision. I don't care if one percieves the 360 to be a lesser system in quality, because it has given me (subjectively) three great years with only one RROD conflict. 40 and 60 GB PS3's are flipping out and people barely complain. This is about the consumers getting screwed over when Microsoft paid for a right they should all have.

that's you, you might be lucky to have only one(in reality, even ONE is NOT OK!) there are far less issues with older PS3 models breaking down vs older 360 models breaking down, those are simple facts. just because they paid for the warranty, it doesn't make it OK, it's not suppose to break that fast to start with, you need to get that into your head and not use that as a counter argument because it's basically saying that a guy can just come over and fk you in the a-ho then put some lotions on it to let it cure and then you will just forget about it, no dood, no, you are not supposed to get screwed in the a-ho to start with!

Sorry man, but as you said one break isn't even ok, so the 40 and 80GB PS3's count as well. I don't care about one break. If one breaks, I have another system to play and I get the other one fixed. Thats just me. Microsoft has a three year warranty for broken products....does Sony? When I got my PS3 I was more pissed at Sony for not giving me the choice of compsite and HD cables like Microsoft did more than freaking RROD. Wanna know why? I expected RROD because I have one of the older systems. Now I know how to take care of my 360 once I got it fixed at Play N Trade. In Japan those who have working consoles are getting shafted and thats that. 360 owners who give a damn about the franchises got screwed and thats that. Sony has a right to protect the quality of ported timed-exclusives on their system, but still they never paid. Microsoft deserves at least equal to what they recieved in the long run. As I said before, I am buying all these games on the PS3 anyway, but it doesn't change the fact that it is morally wrong.

original 360s don't even have HDMI dood =P ( a quality HDMI cable is 6 bucks including shipping on buy.com, and I do use wireless, but I didn't wanna buy the stupid piece of shit for 100 bucks for the 360 so I had to run a longggg ass cable, dear god,) it's the simple fact that 360 does break more often so consumers will have a general bias against it when they look at the data, Japanese people are very anal and don't like things breaking, you have to send it in, or have a back up unit which would equal the price of an older PS3, not counting all the years of Live you gotta pay for(and ironman just informed me that I was paying for P2P ad-fest when I still had my 360, I'm so pissed right now beyond belief,)  I've heard far less PS3 problems so of course the warranty plan isn't as long lol, I literally have friends, this is not just one person, this was about, half of my friend list have had the RRoD problem at least once, out of those people, about half have had at least 2 RRoDs, and about 1/3rd of the rest had to send their 360 in 3 times, a few of them got new ones as backup, and I think 1 or 2 of them got E74 on them LOL and I know for a fact that some of the new 360s are having video issues as well, the shit just doesn't end hahaha. I'm one of the luckier ones though, never had a problem with mine, I just stopped paying for Live and eventually sold the thing since it's worthless without Live and I already beat whatever JRPGs that are out currently.

also, life is not fair, we can strive for it, but it will never happen ^^b
