I imported the Korean version which has full English (dialogue and text)and I live in Europe. The game is basically ready to be released in NA and Europe it's just that they can't, the game is on backorder everywhere. They really didn't expect that kind of success.

GT5 will be released this year sometime between 15/10-15/11. A least that's the talk from Sony in my country and they're quite certain of it. The release date is probably going to be announced at E3 but they're still waiting other companies to announce release dates and they're trying to figure out what's MS going to do with Forza, so they're holding the release date announcement back. Also the game is almost ready and there taking their time with it to ensure that it will be what everyone is...

I have Atelier Iris and Atelier Iris 2 for my PS2 and they're both excellent JRPGs, a little bit on the hardcore side. Aas a Gust game, expect less than mediocre graphics but great gameplay.

Edge reviews are inconsinstent.
They gave the new 50 Cent game a 7/10 also. It's not even remotely close in the same league as RE5 and Killzone 2, even if you nitpick every little detail about these games. They must stop reviewing games according to the hype and judge then according to what they are. Look at all their latest reviews. All the hyped games score less than they deserve but unhyped games always get better scores than they should.
And now they're trying to tell us that ...

You're absolutely right (except the camera part which is 0.3 megapixel!!!).
I'm starting to sick of Nintendo and their so called shortages. I can't believe people are stupid enough to still fall for that.

And you picked the 2 lowest rated new IPs and Haze was never a high profile game.
Of course you chose non first party titles, you would have a big problem finding FIRST party titles from Microsoft that are NEW IPs.
Let me see you trying to find some...

I love it when you pick the titles of games for comparison.
I can also do the following:

Most new IP's have done extremely well on the PS3 when they release on it exclusively like Uncharted, Resistance, LBP selling more than TWO million copies to date.
While the same cant be said for the 360 and PS3. Look what happens to Too Human, it wasnt pretty, and then there's all those non casual Wii games which have failed to make any impact

See what I did there?

I don't think that being a midget in Bioshock stopped you from enjoying the game. Comparing Bioshock to Killzone 2, Bioshock character is even shorter, I haven't seen anyone complaining about that.

Man, some people will do everything to downplay a game...

Btw, Killzone is sold out in both play.com and amazon.co.uk in europe

Dude you're making it worse for yourself, whether you like or not you're comparing 1 day sales for Yakuza 3 to 7 day sales for Star Ocean....
However you spin it, SEGA will make a lot more money on the PS3 than SE will ever do on the X360.

Foxgod really made me think...
Should I release a game that sells 132K in the first day and brag that 1:6 owners got it (see Square-Enix and foxgod) or
Should I release a game that sells 232K in the first day and NOT brag about the attach rate (see SEGA)
I still wonder which company made more money, and will make more money: SE on X360 or SEGA on PS3. Tough one, I guess Foxgod really owned us
/facepalm

The Star Ocean franchise is a big hit in Japan, Yakuza on the other hand wasn't up until now.

Yakuza 1 First WEEK= 130k
Yakuza 2 First WEEK = 281k
Yakuza 3 First DAY = 232k

Considering that the other ones were on PS2 we cal all understand the significance of these numbers. Also these number do not include the Yakuza 3 bundles, famitsu never takes them into account.

What's Dirt 2 got to do with GT5???? These 2 are completely different games. And what do you care about GT5, it's not like you own a PS3.
It's like me saying, wow that's a rival for Forza 3, maybe even better.
See how ridiculous this sounds?
Man, I cannot believe some people...

I've played both games and for anyone who thinks I'm lying just look at my comment history and you'll know I'm not.
FEAR should not be awarded more than a 7. I gave it a 6.5 and I was feeling generous. The game is repetitive as hell, same enemies, mediocre AI and I'm not even going to go into graphics (looks like a 2006 game), innovation (none) and gameplay (far worse then the original FEAR). Just shoot with a rifle in FEAR 2 and you'll know what I'm talking about. For the first two hou...

And how exactly is MS "ensuring" that? Does MS develop these games? No. This is the developers decision, not Microsoft's.

And we all know how SE titles for the 360 turned out...

EDIT: First of all you changed your original post.
Secondly what does Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon have to do with SE???
They were both developed by Mistwalker and published by Microsoft. It's pretty clear that you don't even know what you're talking about. The R.P.G. that SE made for Microsoft are The Last Remnant and Infinite Undiscovery and they both are below mediocrity. SO4 isn't even out yet...

Resident Evil isn't broken, it's just mediocre. Yes, it has the same control scheme as RE4, but you know what? It's not 2005 any more. RE4 was perfect for 2005, as many other games were great at that period, but games evolve or we would play the same games over and over. Resident Evil hasn't evolved and not only that, it lost the great atmoshpere that it had throughout the series. Now it's just amindless shooter, not a bad game, not a great one either. Maybe the game will change my mind, mayb...

I find it meaningless to compare games from different generations of gaming. My favorite FPS concerning THIS generation was COD4 until yesterday. The controls I used were the default ones and the only problem I had was for about half an hour and only for pressing R3 to use the scope (zoom). But that lasted only for half an hour, I got used to it very quickly. The cover system is great, it's the best implementation in a FPS ever and considering that the game is more tactical than run and gun, ...
