Spoiler:
Might be better to read this =) A bit more informative.
I wonder how the community will like this? I don't hang around on any 360 forums, but the PS3 community is still hoping and praying for Backwards cap to return (and it seems it just might) and Microsoft just goes and throws it away. I know I wish I could play Shadow of the colossus on my PS3. Should have never gave away my PS2.

If u knew, why is the title "Japan to 360"? Since this has nothing to do with the 360.I didn't think the original xbox was ever sold in Japan. Unless they imported it then saying Xbox to Japan etc would have seemed strange. Just checked on wiki tho and it seems it had.

It's not for 360, its Live for the first Xbox, and it's ending in the entire world, not only japan. Ofc, this also includes original Xbox games that you can play on the 360 console, but the 360 games will still have Live.So basically, if you do not still play ancient Xbox games on live, there is no problem.
We know that :/ it says it right there in the Sankaku article.

Xbox Live services and online gaming for the first Xbox console, including for any games playable on the Xbox 360, will be terminated on April 15th, 2010.I didn't know it was for the whole world tho. Even more people pissed. If the PS3 having no backwards cap has shown anything it's that there are still plenty of people that play last gen games or at least the amount of complaining seems to show that.

No doubt it wasnt selling well there, So why keep a bad console when you have a good one like the ps3?It may sell well over in Canada or other countries but there.... I bet its like its really bad. Microsoft is whoring money anyway, with their wireless adaptors and their charging XBL, bleh. ill stick with my ps3.
I knew it was bad but I didn't think it was to the point that they would pull out. It had sold 1.25M to the PS3's 4.74M according to VG Chartz. That's bad but it's not terrible in my opinion. Also, I don't see why they would piss off so many Japanese by discontinuing service instead of just not selling them anymore. Who am I kidding tho. Microsoft worrying about customer satisfaction? Like that will ever happen.
I can't say I am surprised, but I think ending the service is a little extreme. If I was a Japanese 360 adopter I'd be pissed.

The iPad is the very last of the tablets that I would get. It has far too many restrictions and is a big mistake in my opinion. right now, the one I am most interested in would be the HP Slate. It supports every format and has all the necessary plugins you would expect as well as running on Windows 7. It is more then likely what I am going to buy.

I made enough to buy a nice t.v That wouldn't happen to be the same TV we were talking about a year ago would it? N-o-s-t-a-l-g-i-a.
