"FREELOADER"

Suprise, surprise (no, it's not my Cilla Black impression). Freeloader has now been delayed until February 2003. This is the latest post on 09/01/03 from Datel's website.

I can buy from just down the road. CA Games.

I must stop going on about them - it's the smallest shop ever, with over-priced inport games, but still, it's got Metroid Prime, Monkey Ball 2, Animal Crossing, and various others.

And I want.

I was just saying chipping consoles is bad. People can chip their consoles to play imports, or pirated games (or both). It's therefore, ruining the industry.

well if he means that then why doesnt he simply say it?

i would never play copied games, unless its PC and thats only cos PC games are a waste of money

I think Maverick is looking more from the perspective that chipped consoles play illegal copied games. Its the copied games that ruin the industry.

ok, can someone explain why chipping is a bad idea?
ok, it invalidates warranty but theres nothing wrong with it

i still dont see what maverick is getting at, why is it any different buying a freeloader and then importing games than it is buying a US or JAP console and then buying import games?

it makes no sense!
he has completely contradicted himself.....

Personally I cant be bothered with the whole Freeloader thing. Its a great idea, but you still have to buy from America and stuff. Call me stupid but I dont trust America. Or dollars for that matter.

And I dont have a credit card :oD

So PAL releases it is for me!

But its a quality idea, and all those games that we dont get, we can finally play them. Without all these silly chipping and stuff.

ok, so why am i wrong?

and me being banned has no releavence to this toipic, and no, im not being hostile.

i was simply stating a fact, importing consoles makes no difference,.

why is it ok to use a freeloader to play IMPORTED games, but not ok to import them in the first place?

Ooer, look who's Mr Hostile tonight. Not to mention Mr Wrong, and Mr Banned 3 Times...

oh my god!
you really are dumb!

this will be ruining the industry as much as importing from the US or Japan will you stupid idiot!

the reason its "ruining" the industry (which it isnt) is cos of importing games!
not getting consoles chipped!
christ!
