Re: Playstation II and Region 2

Summimasen Pamsan,
Gomen ne, I was told that adding "chan" was for indearment. I just add that to all the names of my co-workers since everyone's so nice.
They add the "san" and "kun" at the office. But the funny thing is that everyone either calls me by my first or last name. Since my business card is in nihongo on one side and english on the other with the name sequence vice-versa on both sides they just add san to which ever name. I don't mind, but I haven't been called by both names so much since High School.

The Sony Playstation is going to be fun. But for a popular movie to show up on Region 2 DVD a will take a looooong time. Let's say about average 3 to 6 months after being released in the states to appear in theaters here, then the average wait from there to see it on DVD. My friends like watching the Region 1 DVDs that I get before the movies are released here, but they struggle with the english. From watching tons of Japanimation throughout the years without sub-titles or english dub, I can say sub-titles are a blessing, sometimes not perfect but better than nothing.

The TV shows here...hmmmm...the commercials...(~_^) I better stop here.

I'm going to check out Tokyo's MacWorld expo today. Nothing really new but I get to leave work early here on a nice, and cold Friday.

Ja ne
Joven
