Hi, I wud like to get the ps3 and play FF XII, but was told will only be able to play the original japanese version since ps2 games will still be region lock. Locally, the ps3 are asian sets, so does that mean only japanese ffxiii on it? Does the jap version has eng sub? Thanks.

fxii international will have jpn text, but not that impossible to play. gamefaqs have translations for menus, items, license grids and whatnot. and playing ffxii in 16:9 upscaled to 720p is so fantastic.

if TS don't like to play FFXII with Jap texts, best to get the US version of the PS3 or wouldn't mind spending a lil bit more on a PS2

yes, if u like ps2 games alot, a good investment is to buy a USA PS3 and go ebay to shop for ps2 games. 1.90 really makes ps2 games look good in 480p/720p. rx330, i dont have camera or good photo-taking skills. but playing NTSC/J ffxii the (2006 version not the zodiac job version), i can really appreciate the game visuals more in 480p/720p. the 2006 version is 4:3 only though so i'm getting basically 960*720 with black bars on left & right. currently using same benq monitor recommended by alexwlh  Added on there are some picts at neogaf and at the official ps forums http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158224  This post has been edited by acougan: Jul 28 2007, 07:03 PM

well HP high with MP low is common, use Bubble (double the HP points)  I need to use that against some tough Mob Hunts This post has been edited by shinjite: Jul 28 2007, 07:35 PM

Hi, thanks for all the replies. Went to a shop today and was told ntsc U/C will work on asian set ps3, is that true? I doubt it since NTSC U/C is for US/Canada if I am not mistaken...but the guy sounds very confident it will work and guaranteed it. thought?

I have the ntsc u/c ff xii original & it doesn't run on asian ps3 - "This disc cannot be started due to region restrictions". (kinda regret selling the old ps2  ) - Pre-ordered the FF XII International Zodiac Job System (Asia) , due out Aug 7th. Not sure if it has english menu support, though.

The one scheduled on the 9th is the JP version according to Play-Asia. I pre-ordered the Asian version which is on the 7th. Dunno if there's any difference but it's cheaper
