Xbox Japan needs stronger RPG line-up

From CVG: "Xbox Japan boss Takashi Sensui has said that strengthening the Xbox 360's RPG line-up is "a priority", after a surprising console sales boost on the back of role-playing titans from Namco-Bandai and Square Enix."

Ah yes, about 5 years ago on the days of the xbox original.

Glad to see that people are finally wizening..

[Stryfeno2]

Yes more, more, more...Bring out all of them on the 360.

RPGs = Japanese support.

[DavidMacDougall]

And the only worth while one is on the ps3 and the flopbox gets a dumbed down version LOL HAHAHAHA

[Silogon]

That's funny cause so does the Ps3 since they have NONE!!!!!

[dktxx2]

It has the only one that matters. Final Fantasy 13.

A) U don't own a ps3 and absoultely hate it and for some reason u don't sell it.

B) U only own a 360 and hate ps3.

C) U haven't played MGS4, uncharted, resistance.

D) U wanted to be reported off-topic.

on topic: Yes it does. Xbox needs saving. Not ps3. After Wii and when FFX13 gets released, people will to switch to ps3 obviously.

And I've only got a ps3, but he has his point. the 360 has a really strong rpg lineup right now(pretty much everything tri-ace makes, MistWalker's stuff, Tales, etc). Its the Ps3 that is seriously lacking rpgs, the 360 has plenty, especially considering its audience. If FF13/VS gets published in Japan on 360, that would pretty much let the 360 dominate the ps3 in the genre completely.

More flops for the xbox console

[CyberSentinel]

"More flops for the xbox console"

...and NO GAMES for the ps3!

Hate all you want lemmings, NO SIMULTANEOUS releases for you!
We even took L.A. Noire from you.
Not to mention your beloved FF13.

Blind Lemmings, Get Left Out, Bye Haters!

It's an embarrassment to PS3, that 360 excels in that department.

[SixTwoTwo]

Truthfully no console is selling well in Japan except for maybe the Wii.

With MediaCreate numbers the combined sales of the Wii/PS3/360 in Japan is less than 10 million. Now compare that to the roughly 28 million (NPD) next gen consoles sold in the US. I don't have any EU numbers but my guess is they are a couple million behind the US.

Japan has lagged behind in sales and its because 90% of the developers out there make games geared towards the western market.

[Xelai]

They need even more?

[wazborn]

the only reason ff13 is not on xbox japan coz SE knows if they do that sony is so screwed bad.. coz it will totally lose it footing and out of pity they didnt but still HAHAH PS3 drop and die...hahahaha now the dumb idiot wanna compete in shooters.. what a joke..

[KiddyBrownTurd]

PS3rd EVERYWHERE needs stronger RPG line-up.

*fixed*

[Says you]

Of course Silogon is just being retarded considering PS3 does have RPG's and most of the rpg's on the XBox 360 flopped so what are you talking about? the RPG's on the PS3 is better anyway the reason why you don't see that many here in America is because America is more of a shooter country then anything else so why should Sony bother? putting them here?.
