Yep. Better watch out.
idiot.
VF5 is a port of an arcade game.
Blue Dragon was in development for well over a year, and had a huge promotional campaign that failed miserably.
Mistwalker have already hinted that Blue Dragon 2 won't be on XBOX 360, for obvious reasons.
SAGAGUCHI and CAPCOM both lost millions on BD/LOST PLANET.
i feel real sorry for LP.......had a marketing budget of 6 million solely for JAPAN........it failed big time . The profits that CAPCOM made in US and parts of Europe were all nullified due to the huge losses incurred by the JAPANESE versions
