Japan's Shintoist. It's still somehow related to Buddhism, I think.

Neverthless, beside the fact that there are Chrisitans there, their X-mas is extremely secular.

This is why you don't go to fanboy sites for news.

No, indeed, sales are just coincidentally higher in December every year...

Just because most Japanese don't celebrate Christmas doesn't mean they don't have a holiday. They celebrate New Year.

Christmas isn't celebrated entirely for religious purposes anymore....The vast (and I mean vast) majority celebrate it as a religion-neutral holiday....Including Japan.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

You do know this is just where Joystiq dumps it's PS3 news right?

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

So Famitsu is wrong? BLASPHEMY!

And that is perhaps the worst gaming-related article I have ever read. Holiday season perhaps?

erm...doesn't WKC have over 200k copies sold on launch week (with 75.5k the next week), and not 46000? or am I reading the article wrong
