But I did run out of stuff to post about. Thanks, in part, to (A) my own damn stupidity, and (B) fucking lawyers. I went ahead and jumped the gun in regards to picking up some Japanese XLA points from JapanVideoGames.com. That part worked great, and they emailed me the code in a few hours of hitting the PayPal button. I was going to use the points for Shooting Love 200X. Since the game was going to be a digital download, I wouldn't have anything to take a picture of. I decided to make a funny thumbnail of "nothing," the one you see up top. It still applies, since I didn't get jack shit out of this. Shooting Love is IP locked. There appears to be no way for me to download this on the American continent. I still have a small chance to game the system, but I don't have much faith it will work. Microsoft recently added the ability to purchase Marketplace items via the xbox.com website, which would be automatically downloaded the next time the user logged into Xbox Live using their console. The Xbox looks like a farly bulletproof system, but the PC is anything but. I was trying to use an anonymous proxy server in Korea to authorise the purchase online, then hoping that the Xbox didn't bother to check the IP with the mothership before downloading. Korea unfortunately is still not close enough. I need a server physically located in Japan to try again.
