The popular Japanese gaming magazine, Famitsu, recently revealed the top 50 XBox 360 games sold in Japan ... and the sales numbers ain't pretty!
It's a shame really, Microsoft's next-gen console just doesn't seem to appeal to the Japanese audience, and if Kotaku is anything to go by, the abysmal 360 sales seem to come down to poor marketing on Microsoft-Japan's behalf.
Even the ever popular Final Fantasy creator, Hironobu Sakaguchi, had pretty dismal sales for his RPG Blue Dragon (despite...
Well the next game of the series has finally got up their official website. Although contents and stuff is still in the making you can see this awesome picture here, from the website
Blue Dragon Plus is a real time role-playing game for the Nintendo DS and not just a card-based RPG as reported in other gaming sites.
It's another zany sales week in Japan, with DS and Wii sales shooting through the roof in a Nintendo-dominated top ten, and some weird and disheartening PSP sales.
There was a flip-flop at the top of the rankings, as this week's top seller was last week's #2, Mario Party DS, selling 180k units. The #2 seller is last week's #1, Wii Fit, with 124k units sold. Rounding out the top five is the only non-DS/Wii game in the top ten, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (PS3 - 116k - BD Version), Professor L...
The hype and hyperbole for BioShock continues its ebb and flow across the industry - and critical feedback sure says that 2K Games' latest offering is a bona fide stunned. But what's on offer this week? Well, if you're in the US, then Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is the cream of the crop, while the likes of Blue Dragon, Warhawk, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 are following close behind.
The review score shadow presently being cast by BioShock is vast... and GamerSquad feels a little sorry for any other game attempting to secure retail trade this week. That said, there are some impressive titles on offer along with BioShock, and they are: Blue Dragon, Moto GP 07, Dave Mirra BMX Challenge, Brunswick Pro Bowling, and Two Worlds (if it doesn't slip... again).

"Bringing top Japanese developer talent to the Xbox 360, Blue Dragon is a culmination of the work of famed game producer Hironobu Sakaguchi of Mistwalker game studio and developer Artoon. This epic RPG features the character design of Akira Toriyama, who designed Dragon Ball Z, and music by Nobuo Uematsu, the composer for Final Fantasy.
Gamers will find themselves exploring and discovering the vast world of Blue Dragon as they assume the role of Shu, a young boy who along with his ..."
GamerSquad brings you not one, not two, but three gameplay clips from Mistwalker/Artoons' gorgeous-looking Blue Dragon RPG. And, what's more, you don't have to listen to grating Japanese characters wailing like soap opera actresses. Nope, it's all in English, soap opera English, but English all the same.
