    Can a Gaijin such as myself just buy property in Japan without being a resident? If so.....

    Still though, bit of coke & a few hookers would spruce it up

    Just in case it slipped by, the Gameboy Micro price has slipped to a mere €60....

    I suggest a group buy. Not on the coke and hookers but the house.

    And I'm sober so you know I'm deadly serious.

    The ad says this is 140 to 150 years old and it still puts some student accommodation and hostels I've seen to shame.

    Be a nice holiday home for Hallowe'en, wouldn't it? Wonder how Japanese ghosts feel about tourism.

    Just bring a Camera Obscura with you and you'll be grand.

    That is a possible situation....

    Perhaps I should just buy it and everyone else is welcome to stay! It'll be a 24/7 sesh house!

    Jap-a-beers :eek:

    I'd buy a bit of it with you, but I think we'd be opening ourselves up for lawsuits because that house will crumble & kill someone soon

    Is there a noob-friendly way of finding out if the phat Elite is jtaggable/glitchable? I have the exact same type of 360 sitting here unused, I'd be curious to know if it is.

    To jtag the dash has to be 7371 or lower
    For the RGH I'm not entirely sure, the most recent dash blocks it for the moment I think

    The greatest PS RPG finally finds it's way onto Adverts!
    I know Retr0 already has a copy, but he might want to go all Steve Si on it's ass and own two!

    I've got games included with graphics cards many weeks before the actual game was in stores. Sometimes a steam code and sometimes an actual proper cased game.
    I go through graphics cards like hot dinners and its very common to see a high profile game included. A lot of illegal game dumps online get there files this way (and other ways of course, the dodgy pirate gits).

    Ah right, suppose if your spending big bucks on a card a new game a bit early might sweeten the deal

    Yeah, I think I got Max Payne 3 with my latest GTX 690 and I believe they had the game with that card well before it was released.
    It was release by the time I got the card anyway so it was no real benefit apart from the free game side of it. And at that kind of price point I'd expect a free game and some hookers and coke.

    High definition hookers and coke?

    those bingo machines are very like the ones they had in Star Amusements in Bray back in the late 90's.
