Ugh, I really do hate them region restrictions... I think supposedly ps3 60 gig wa sthe best deal since you could play ps2 games in it, for the 80 gig you have to download some patch that will let you play SOME gmes.. and the 40 gig was useless for ps2 game :'( sadly enough, 60 gigs are not being made (and i doubt they will keep making them) T_T

nah. PS3 backward compatibility is region locked, Japanese games won't work on it. I'm playing this on my modded PS2.

oh yah, I forgot to mention, I got the 40GB PS3, since BC on PS3 is 50% useless for me(half of my old PS2 games are Japanese)... and I find no use for the flash card readers nor the two extra USB ports.

It will probably hit the

Hmm... it's for PS2, so I can't really rip it. I can make an ISO out of it if you want.

But I'm sending my laptop in for repair(the optical drive got busted) tomorrow, so it'll have to wait until I get it back.

Can you?

The Perplexity of Haruhi Suzumiya for the PS2. Just received my pre-ordered copy of the (super) limited edition in the mail today.

It never cease to amaze me how well some Japanese companies treat their fans. When you pre-order something in Japan, it almost always comes with some kind of pre-order special, some of them aren't worth shit, but some of them are really nice. So nice, that their worth on auction sites is four or five times the merchandise it came with. Despite the tremendous market demand, the companies would never release them again. It almost doesn't make any business sense...

It's frustrating sometimes when you can't find something you really want. But if you are one of those people who got that special item. It makes you feel really special, and before you know it, you'll be lining up for the next 'special'.

For my pre-ordered (super) limited edition, it came with a PS2 CD(which is the pre-order special) which includes design sketches, various illustrations, a promotional video featuring Hirano Aya, and a Haruhi dance video where the SOS dan are wearing their super hero costume. And it came with the FIRST(model SP-001) figure of the figma series(which is the limited edition special), that you can't find anywhere else.

Now speaking of pre-order specials. Here is something you might wanna take note of if you pre-order games from Play-Asia. They DON'T include pre-order specials. So if you care about these special items, try HimeyaShop, or GDEX. They are a bit more expensive than Play-Asia, but if you pre-order, you get more stuff out of them. If you just want the game, go for Play-Asia, they have the best price.

Game box. If I didn't know this already, I probably wouldn't even think this is a PS2 game.

figma #001!

Case for the special CD.

CD itself... still in the case though.

Game case!
