| Xbox-France.com published Famitsu's top10 list of the best selling Xbox 360 games since the launch in December 2005. 1. Blue Dragon (Microsoft) : 135.240 2. Dead or Alive 4 (Tecmo) : 103.307 3. Ridge Racer 6 (Bandai Namco) : 72.129 4. DOA Xtreme 2 (Tecmo) : 57.060 5. Dead Rising (Capcom) : 49.978 6. Lost Planet (Capcom) : 44.854 7. Ninety Nine Nights (Microsoft) : 38.019 8. Rumble Roses XX (Konami) : 29.187 9. Perfect Dark Zero (Microsoft) : 26.085 10. Project Gotham Racing 3 (Microsoft) : 25.058 Note: Only 135k Blue Dragon's sold ... I doubt that's gonna pay back much of the development costs. Luckily the game is also planned for the western market somewhere this summer. |

I agree. The first thing that popped into my mind when reading this list was "huh, where is GoW?!?!". Surely GoW must be in top10 even there.

Dead Rising sales are nothing short of criminal. Japanese gamers have lost all of my respect by now...
I lost respect for them years ago, their loss though right?

Something is wrong with their minds.
edit: i've come to a conclusion, that Bandai Namco is one of the worst developing company around. It's best games recently were Ridge Racer and Mobile Suit Gundam... anyone agree?

I laugh when I see ridge racer is high in sales while many many others arent even on the list and should be. I understand its all subjective but come on, ridge racer? They need to pull their heads out of their asses, and soon.

There's nothing wrong with them, their tastes are different, that's all. I too prefer Ridge Racer 6 over PGR3 any day, I just find the latter one... uncompelling. I'm not saying the PGR series are bad games, (I recognize all of the innovations they brought to the racing genre, and their dedication to perfection with each installment) I've played all of them since Metropolis Street Racer on Dreamcast, but I have much more fun with the RR6, I haven't stopped playing it since launch, clocked in more than 200 hours, started it over 2 times, and it is still addictive, exhilarating. (I just wish RR7 was on Xbox 360 too, but I guess I'll have to buy a PS3 someday).
Ever since the Namco-Bandai merger people get the impression that all they do are bad games. Remember, the Bandai branch handles all those quick-cash anime games, Namco does the better titles: Soul Calibur, Ace Combat, Tekken, Ridge Racer, etc.
