What are you talking about?

You DO NOT need an American TV to play import games. All you need is;

a) A TV capable of displaying an NTSC signal (which most new-ish TV's do)

b) Japanese/American machine WITH a step-down transformer as not to blow the GameCube.

c) Freeloader disc, which allows the use of import games on GameCube

For years UK gamers have been getting shafted with release dates being delayed months after they've been released in the States. So I choose not to pick up the usually late PAL versions. I import.

Take Eternal Darkness for example. Been out for over a month now. When will the UK see it? November time.

The only thing that is sad, is the comment made from yourself, which went along the lines of "...importing non-exclusive games is just gay". There are people, including myself who like importing, who prefer the Japanese/US cases/artwork to the PAL brethren.

What's wrong with that?

Why? Because I choose to import my games rather than wait for PAL releases? Really don't care that it's *only* a month early.

i think we've found a flamer

could you understand it if you could then shut it if not then ask your mum to read it for you

There are so many things wrong with that message, I really don't know where to begin. But I am not going to go through them so I don't have to begin any where. Phew.

Yes and it's out at the start of December in the U.K, so whats your point? You strike me as an incredibly sad individual

um, i dont really think that anyone is stupid enough to get an american GC+TV just to get import games, he's probably going to get either a freeloader or an action replay, DUH!

i thought it was for kid how old are you late 30s or 40s. don't be so pointless you could understand it so whats the problem? R U a teacher is thet Y U R talking about grammmer. get a life, don't import games as you have to get a american TV and GC and you can't play UK games on it, so do you have one of each a UK and US GC.
