owh, n malaysia reads japanese

Malaysian in general still perceive gaming industry as kid stuff. But we can't blame general public. It is SONY fault that lack initiative to promote/advertise gaming. How many times hv u seen a tv ad for any video game in Malaysia? In the US, SONY advertise during super bowl, the most expensive advertising airtime.

The Gov also at fault. Gov state full fledged war against piracy, saying how ruthless and violence the pirate DVD/CD sellers are. But do nothing to promote buying/owning original DVD/CD. IMHO Gov hate piracy not bcoz pressure from commercial companies. It is bcoz they can't tax the pirate DVD/CD seller

i don't think the facts are right. if you really own ff8 and ff10, you would have noticed that ff8 has no voiceovers.
ff10 international is fully in english, japanese text.

if our gov can even consider building a circuit for our rempit, why can't they build a centre for piracy hub??

if government promote original games and movies and dont tax it, you think those PS3 games still in 3 figures? maybe within RM100 can buy already, if we can add maybe another RM10 or RM20 to get a original HD DVD movie or BD movie, i bet many people will brought original instead of pirated.

hey wait.....THIS IS MALAYSIA!!!!

they will reply you and say that the credit card is still under implement and more english version games will be putting up soon.....

SOON.....................................................................

automated? so we need to spam them?

how come everyone so into FF7? aren't you all already played it on PS1 already?

why the games are mostly in japanese? does sony expects us to learn NIHON-GO???!!!

glorious HD graphic and it's on PS3 !!

The Japanese games are meant to Japanese users.
They may or may not be English version of the game available.

They just open the Japanese games section up to allow other users to purchase ahead of time -
and yes, you're expected to know some Japanese if you want to play the latest stuff being released over there.

Again these releases are meant for those 'otaku' type who wants the latest of everything..

This has nothing to do with Sony MY.

More like it has to do with SCEA.
All Asian provinces are to adhere the content of Asia, which is NTSC-J. This has been so since the days of the PS1. The policy hasn't changed.

Lawsuits up the ass if we see PAL or NTSC-UC content on any of the Asian stores here ya' know...

I think you mean Sony Computer Entertainment Hong Kong Limited. Not SCEA. That one is for America.

huh??? i thought that FF7 is PS1 upscaled

so it's the same storyline and gameplay but with real 1080p quality?

Whoops.... blur abit.
Yea, SCE HK.


Upscaled 1080p.
Looksy yummy. The "jaggies" are so sharp that they look ironically look good!

question, this ff7 supports vibration function? the psone ver sure doesn't

I've seen it for dual use.

SCEA = Sony Computer Entertainment America (more common)

SCEA = Sony Computer Entertainment Asia (less common)

I believe SSBen meant the latter, ie. Asia.

Sometimes, I also confused by Sony marketing.. they lumped Asia into a central area.
covers 6 countries: HK, TW, SG, TH, SG, KR

Japan being the motherland is unique of course - SCE Japan.

better buy from US PSN for English game like FF7. MY PSN is totally hopeless and ridiculously expensive.

furthermore, it's the best time to test out PS1 games on PS3 with the best game. even if u able to get original FF7 game disc, it would be in NTSC-J.so this english PSN FF7 is kinda good.

i just wish to play harvest moon: back to nature and FF8, i got the PS1 disc at me hometown, but they are ahem one, i think i cant play it.
