@ Aoshi OO: Wow, they’re even region locking minor software? That’s rediculous.

Will we ever have a “global” marketplace?

Hope it wouldn’t be region locked, the Operation Darkness demo is just in the marketplace mocking me, and they even have Eng. commands, what a tease..

I have a Jpn 360 console and just bought a 120 gb hard drive, guess what, the data transfer kit’s driver DVD disc is region locked. So I can’t even do the transfer at the moment, that’s region lock at its worst. Figured it would be okay since I installed a 20Gb US hard drive on my Jpn 360 back then..

Well if it is like the last demo they put out, by the time they decide to allow silver accounts to download it they will have region locked it.

aw man, i’ve got a silver japan account. i can’t believe they’re charging full retail for this. i like these games, but in comparison to the 10 bucks each i paid for triggerheart, rez, and omega five, this comp is the anti-deal. if it’s region free, i may still pick it up when i can grab it for less. i have a jp 360, but i’m trying to get region free titles to ease the transition to an american system. don’t know when that’ll happen though since so many titles are region free.
