"Sony has gained approval to launch the PlayStation 3 in China, a country where games consoles are technically illegal."

"China implemented its console ban in 2000 to protect the nation's youth - and in doing so created a grey-market for games consoles and arguably encouraged piracy."
If China wants to protect its youths, then it should ban Hollywood movies (which love to bash China and Chinese) instead of consoles.

I'm referring to pretty much to the end of life for the console, sure it may still hold relevency for a while and sony will keep supporting it, but the point is that the Chinese are getting a console that will soon be put on life support.

I think with the wii-u coming out soon, Sony and Microsoft will be looking ahead too.
Ah, yes, the Chintendo Vii complete with Garryo All Stars. That's why China doesn't need other country's inferior console offerings.

The guy in the vid said that the crazy golf game was actually pretty good. I almost want to buy one myself out of curiosity.
This really is going to be shite...

Yeah, he really liked that one. I wonder what other games it has available.
