Take-Two to be Acquired?

[WTFer]

What, like 50 Cent's game? Didn't that sell over a million in the US?

probably shipped 1 million copies across all regions & all platforms (there was, like 10 of them)

do people even play good games in Japan anymore?

Considering four of the five best games of 2005 (RE4, DMC3, NGB, and CV: DoS) were all Japanese and sold well there, I'd say so.

Then again, they do buy all the complete trash that Square releases, so...

[Diff-chan]

Two questions Yoshster:

01. What was the fifth?
02. this isnt really a question, but Civ4 and Battlefield 2 both shit on all games you mentioned, and Japanese people didnt buy either. =D

Those games all sold a lot better in the US than they did in Japan.

For me the fifth is God of War. Civ4 and Battlefield are probably very good but not my cup of tea.

Bono to the rescue?

Japanese don't see PC's as a gaming platform.


Why do people talk about Sega like they still even matter? I also see no mention of Activison, who are looking to become a bigtime player this generation.
