Important Importables: 2010 console import gift guide
The Important Importables gift guide deluge of 2010 continues! This week, I’ve put together a selection of nine import console games that could make great gifts this year. There are three PS3, three Xbox 360 and three Wii games listed below. Perhaps one could be a nice surprise for someone you love.
Now remember – only PS3 games are region-free. If the person you’re shopping for bought their Wii in the US, don’t buy them a game on this list. They won’t be able to play them.

It’s also notable for another important reason. As Cave told Kotaku, the company made Mushihimesama Futari Ver 1.5 region-free to test the waters, so to speak.

Siliconera helpfully pointed out that the menus are in English, which would make importing even easier.
The Xbox 360 version includes the 1.5 version of Mushihimesama Futari, as well as all previous versions. The game follows the story of the search for a lost prince named Aki, who went into Reco’s forest to stop monstrous insects from preying on his people. Aki never returned, and now his brother Palm goes to find out what happened…
