Hopefully all the games coming out at the end of July for the 360 can help give it a bit of a boost in Japan.

Despite that score I like the look of Bullet Witch so I think I'll pick up the Asian version from Play Asia. Not like Famitsu scores are always 100% reliable anyway! Very tempted by Senko No Ronde as well, but it looks like the kind of game that I'll be **** at I'll probably buy it anyway just so I can look cool for owning it 8)

I got both on pre-order was tempted with Shutoko as well.

[EJG1980]

Ahh yeah, didn't notice that on the list for some reason. I used to love Shutoko Battle on the Dreamcast! Too many games to choose from, go back to less Japanese releases

I'm off to Tokyo in mid September so I might see what kind of prices the games are going for in the shops there. Probably won't be much different from importing them from Play Asia, Lik Sang, etc., but you never know, might be able to find a few bargains.

- Kamaitachi no Yoru 3 (PS2, Sega) : 9 / 8 / 8 / 8 - (31/40)


...?

[EJG1980]

Is the question mark because you don't know what the game is, or because you know what it is and can't understand how it scored so much? Not heard of it myself!

[strawdonkey]

No, I can't understand how 9+8+8+8 equals 31

[EJG1980]

Hmm, the fact that I work in accountancy and didn't spot that is a tad worrying Probably a typo!

The Earth Defence Force Tactics

Ooooh - wassat?

I am surprised Halo 2 even got that much from Famitsu.

Still, suprising amount of titles on the 360 this month, and most seem to be more JPN-orientated.

[dataDave]

Laughable.
