Remember when things like regional locking made Europeans not be able to play Xenogeras... the shame!

I wonder what mastodon within Microsoft came up with all these restrictions. It has to be an old fart that's become stubborn and self-centered as hell due to his brain shrinking of old age. On top of that, power corrupts.

That was the reason I bought a modded PS1...still have it around and after playing that game I have never regretted it :D

<----------------- (just look at my avatar)

Actually that was also why I bought a modded PS2...for Xenosaga.

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Yeah, but its region locked depending on IP , so we won't play it even if we'd change the region settings to local.
not to mention the price is going to be outragous.

Oh right, never thought about that :S . Not sure what's going to happen then but I agree about the price. Since in the Middle East we get the PAL version, I think the Xbox One's price here could be higher than the UK price :0

It's a shame because all they have to do is remove the online check everyone 24 hours requirement and that will open up the Xbox One to a global market. I don't know what they are thinking, they are seriously underestimating the emerging markets, especially in Asia.

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030
