Forums - Microsoft - Kotaku liveblogging Xbox Japan presser

It's going on right now, for anybody who's interested. Wonder if there'll be any new announcements to go with their 30% price cut. Just started, but so far it's interesting to see that Mass Effect is finally getting a Japanese release.

Hmmm. Mass Effect to japan? It's about time the Japanese got to experience a real AAA rpg for this current generation.



Whoops, lol, looks like Fallout 3 froze. >_>

Yeah, I thought that was funny, too.

Looks like they're finally showing Ninja Blade!



Wait? is Gundam Masou 2 and Ninja blade timed exclusives/ exclusives? I hope they are.

I think Ninja Blade is an outright exclusive. At least it'll be timed. It was one of the last ESRB leaks before they changed their policy.

A lot of people thought it was going to be some tie in with the supposed motion controller. It sounds nothing like I was expecting. It sounds... awesome!

Edit: It appears Gundam Musou 2 is multiplatform. 360, PS3, and PS2.



hah!, sounds like capcom is shiting on Japan

Pretty funny, yeah.

I'm glad they're talking about reviving old IPs. There is a ton of Capcom stuff I'd like to see come back. Final Fight (make me forget Streetwise, plz), Knights of the Round, Saturday Night Slam Masters, Breath of Fire...

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs!



here's the ninja blade trailer.


Looks like with Itagaki gone, Microsoft will have to get their ninja gaiden else where.
