Hi,
Kick 1.3 is the best choice for gaming on A500.
For your TV set, well you "survive" in the US.
Try go get a second Hand "BARCO" monitor, or an Arcade Cabinet with a big screen and made a 'scart' connection, or import a TV from France (SECAM/PAL/NTSC/RGB 50/60 Hz and some LCD/Plama also have VGA/DVI-I or D/ Analog and Digital Y-U-V up to 1080i)

you'll just have to pay tax and a 110/220v converter (just a 200W output transformator is required).
