That's what I did a few months ago.
I'm happy, and if you decide to do it I think you'll be happy too.

Indeed.
I've given up hope for years to see shooters come to USA… I have been importing the latest Xbox 360 shooters and I am VERY happy! Happier than most others have been with the latest shooting games currently available on the Japanese Xbox 360… Just a couple more weeks for Death Smiles!

There are (currently) no mods available. You'll need a jap 360.

even modded the region locking remains...there is a mod that flashes the region, but all that does is change the region...so you could make a US 360 into a japanese region one....

just buy a japanese 360....easiest way

i would wait tho.....DOJBLEX was garbage...ketsui remains to be seen, and deathsmiles comes out soon....i would wait until we have some user feedback before you fork out the cash for this stuff

anything else is not worth mentioning :wink:

I forgot that Otomedius and Raiden 4 and Shiki III, which are all far superior to DOJBLEX, were out as well. Well, and RFA, but that's coming stateside.
