So does this mean that we have another AAA title on the way exclusively for the PS3? I used to have a high regard for Famitsu and their reviews, however, they did score The Last Remnant for Xbox 360 with a 38/40 and most western reviewers thought it was mediocre/garbage. What do you think?

Who's Scianx, and what did he do? He sold his ps3 didn't he? Dammit, why did he do that??? Theres so many awesomes exclusives coming out.

Uncharted 2

GoW 3

GT5

Infamous

Heavy Rain

I mean, i know it was hard at first, the ps3 got off to a bit of a bad start and all. But things are looking up. I'm so excited for the ps3's future.

Hey, next time you see Scianx, tell him......oh, forget it.

I think there is a high probability of them releasing it in the US. Yakuza 2 I know for a fact is for sale in Canada at Best Buy for the PS2, so I wouldn't worry too much about Sega not releasing it.

I love the Yakuza series. One of my all time favorites. This game not being release outside Japan is equivalent to the non development of Shenmue 3.

TBH, FFXII was an amazing game and probably deserved it. They also gave haze 38/40 though and WKC 28 so yea it is a little unreliable.

It was amazing alright...on a technical level. For a JRPG though...No.... The infamous line "Mature themes" still didn't make the story any better.
