The Xbox 360 has a reputation for being the underdog in Japanese sales, partly due to its status as the only American-produced console of the big three. So color us surprised by Famitsu's list of the top 25 titles of 2007, as ranked by the magazine's review scores, which features a lot of love for Microsoft's white wonder.
Of the 25 titles ranked, a whopping ten are Xbox 360 titles. The games -- which include titles like Lost Odyssey, Halo 3 and Forza 2 -- make up the majority of the list, with the DS and PS3 tying at a distant second with five games apiece.

This just shows how stupid the majority of Japanese consumers are. They buy purely on the brand name being Japanese rather than the quality of the games available. They are a very insulated, racist, narrow minded people.

All the Japanese people I know are really nice people. I'm sure there are some bad apples, but thats with any group of people no matter how you categorize them.

what else can you conclude?
i mean Americans get the same scrutiny about not buying japaneese cars all throughout the 70s 80s and 90s, but it's ok because were used to it?
