I bought my DS3 for about $45 when I was in Japan and it's made in china and not made in japan... haven't experienced any problems with the DS3, been using for 3 months

When you say your japanese sixaxis > chinese sixaxis is it because the chinese sixaxis loses connection from time to time?

I think the DS3 will probably be around $60 just like how much the sixaxis cost right now at futureshop.

^ no connection is great, it's the analog stick feels loose after grinding/wearing down..and I've had it for only 6 months. Mine Japanese one's more solid built..it's still going strong

Yeah, but I think it's gonna be all in Black so i got a White one instead.

I just found out all DS3 are made in China..even for the Japanese market. Rumble is pretty awesome on Uncharted!

so anyone going to pick up GT Prologue?

im actually willing to shell out $40 for this, but ill probably most likely get the blu ray retail instead of the download version, at least you get the additional featurettes etc..

plus there is news going around that Polyphony is implenting vehicle deformation (or damage system) into the game as a later patch update in the fall....

If there's confirmation for this..I think I will actually buy it...used.

I wish they can bundle GT5 (full game) with G25 or at least a coupon for the wheel or the game. Did Logitech and PD try that for DFP and GT4? Wouldn't it make more sense since it's GT's official wheel...

G25 is not GT5's official wheel.

there is a new driving force GT which have an adjustment wheel on the steering to adjust traction control on the fly.

^ okay, so are they bundling/using coupons on the DF-GT then? Did they ever do it in the past with DFPro and GT4?

If not then G25 is still the better choice then.

Got my dual shock over the weekend from London Drugs for $54.99.
Too bad CoD4 doesn't support it.

IMO, from what is circulating around the internet, the G25 is better than the "official GT5" wheel:
http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=102724

You can get the G25 for $200 @ Anitec

ok...my review of playing GT5 online.....
wtf?!?!?!
it's like a destruction derby out there....You get people using the car in front of them to stop and then you get idiots riding the walls blowing past you. I played about 15 races online, in hopes to get one clean race in with no luck. There are always the handful of idiots.
