So now im planning to sell my 360 2 controllers and 4 games through lack of use...
I used to play forza 2 all the time, finished halo3, GoW, and vagas and dont feel like playing any time soon.
There is Fable 2 coming up but not sure if i want to keep my 360 just for one game when i can sell it for cash now.

Now i was also thinking of getting the PS3 ready for GT5 when ever its going to come out and other games, also it will support the G25 and the 911 wheel :)

Then comes the option of wether to get it in japan or england... its a tad cheaper in japan, but the one problem will be no blu ray compat here and having to use a high wattage Transformer.
I'm japanese so language or returns wont be much of a problem...

so.. whats your opinion on what i should do....

Thanks
 
It supports this G25 wheel and some other wheels (I see them in the options screens for GT5:Prologue).

If you buy it in Japan, I would get a copy of GT5:P to tide you over until GT5 full is released.

In all honesty though I would not buy either console for 1 game (be that keeping your 360 for Fable 2 or getting the PS3 for GT5).

Blu-Ray, DVD, PS1 games etc will only work if you have the correct Japanese region/versions.

Having said that I reckon more than 50% of commercially released Blu-rays are region free anyway.

thanks,
Im quite fond of my Driving sims .. i usually play LFS on the PC however from time to time i think i would prefer games with real cars rather than imitations. And thats why i bought the 360 for forza 2. i was going to get the FFB wheel for the 360 but it wasnt really good.. anyways im waiting for my new Fanatec 911 wheel to come from germany anytime ^^. that's also compat with the ps 3.

anyways. so the Japanese PS3s can take 240 volts?

You don't want to keep your 360 for just one game, but you're willing to buy another console for just one game?

There are loads of other games on the 360 that must interest you, and loads more on their way. If you are 100% set then don't worry, otherwise look at the 2008 lineup for both consoles and decide based on which games interest you more.

well im also looking forward for big little planet too, but i really love my driving simulators :).
 
What is the price of the fanatec wheel.

320.00 EUR
with the exchange rate then...
1 GBP = 1.40216EUR
it works out to be
228pounds.

I would have had it by now but apparently they screwed up with the first batch of pedals as the spring was not put in right :confused:
Well, what ever floats there boat, i should have it within the next months.

^more info^

btw.. my G25 broke for the second time...
 
So how big is the PS3 box.. or even just the contents.. im starting to think its too much of an hasstle of get it over from Japan, as i dont think i will be going back for a while. Also i very much doubt either of my parents will have the sympathy to get one down either..

Can anyone shed some light on the problem with the new batch of PS3s??
