Another thing is that the X-Box had been selling for awhile and the people buying Wii already have an X-Box and don't need another. Japan is very tech trendy. They throw out perfectly good equipment to get the next newest thing.
One of the better uses for an X-Box is as a server for HDTV plus wasn't their HD-DVD drive relatively cheap compared to a stand alone. FWIW Hasn't Todd McFarlane stopped creating comics? He was busy running his toy company. After Image fell out of my radar I haven't heard much out of him. Spawn is being done by someone else. Of course telling him to stop isn't such a bad thing either. I haven't liked much he has done since Infinity Inc and Spider-Man. On 7/2/07, mike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
