ROFL at your sig. That game is pretty fun though. Back on topic, the japanese do like 3rd person shooter more than 1st person, I mean just look at Lost Planet.

How did it flop? It sold out, and expanded the market a little in japan? You can only sell so much with a limited user base... lord the logic... When it releases everywhere else, and gets in the million + mark...ill come back to this post.

You can only sell so much with a limited user base... t.

Actually, that's what system sellers are for, to expand the userbase. Blue Dragon didn't flop, but it did very poorly.

Japan has a reputation for buying Japanese ONRY!

For GOW to out sell R:FOM just shows how much better of a game it is, and that everyone knows how much of a flop the PS3 is..,

Even the Japanese.

Crackdown is a amazing game.  People who knock it, prob have never played the game past the demo.

The Co-Op is outstanding, giving this game 9.5/10

Xplay gives it 5/5!
