Yeah but it's region protected. I was gonna buy a box here but it won't work with NTSC/U. I really want a copy though! Might buy a PS3. No copy protection on that one.

Cool. So we'll be able to play the game in English, no dubbing / Asian text?

I just preordered gta iv with them, is it really gonna take 5-10 days? Twisted Evil

Since I don't want to wait, any chance any place in Yongsan will have it in American format? I also wanna get r6 vegas 2 and don't wanna wait and thought about going to Yongsan to see. Should I not even bother?

Yongsan is up in the air. I talked to a handful of guys working their booths there that had no idea. It's a big enough release that it COULD come out the day it's supposed to, but others have not. Playasia will more than likely ship when it says it will, plus you could always get the express shipping. Another option if you REALLY want it bad is to order from playasia to be safe, but still check Yongsan on the 29th. If they have it at Yongsan, you may still have time to cancel the playasia order, or if not, just sell the playasia one to someone for cheaper.

(I ordered from yesasia.com, which says they'll have it to me by May 2. Wait and see...)

It might be better to get it late, my semester ends may 9th. If i get it before then, it could be bad for me lol.

I went to Yongsan to get R6 Vegas 2 and got the Korean version which does play on an American X box. The Box is in Korean as well as the instructions, but the game itself is in English. Just thought i'd throw that out there for anyone else wondering. By the way, it's just a duplicate of the first with new maps... ubisoft was soooo lazy.
