Gaming - wow Gears 2 - View Post

The shots you are seeing are not from Japan. They are either from Hong Kong, Taiwan or Singapore. The game went on sale in those regions today.

As for Japan they wont get the game until next year and it will likely be a watered down version. Fortunately the Asian version that you see in the picture is NTSC-J and can be used on a Japanese X-Box. I guess it doesnt matter since the American version is region free. The point being certain game shops import them and sell them here. I picked up a copy of the Asian version today in Akihabara, Tokyo. I played through about half the campaign. I also tried online, but no parties could be formed. Not enough people I guess.

Anyhow, Im not so impressed with the game. At the same time I cant say it is not good. Id give it an 8 out of 10.
