"Death Smiles"

Hey, if I got to wander around all day in a robe, carrying a scythe and having his kind of job security I reckon I'd be pretty happy!

Would be better than being a developer anyway..

DeathSmiles is a new bullet hell shmup. A good one, too.

Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 3 is, of course, the third game in the brilliant (but under-appreciated) 'SOS: The Final Escape' series.

Huzzah!

''if PS3 and Wii figures remain the same, then Sony's console catches Nintendo's by 9th March, 2028.''

@evilfoxhound It might be in part because the Helghast are inspired cough* ripped* from a bunch of Japanese films, two of which were directed by Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell) while the third is an animated film called Jin Roh and is available on DVD in the UK.

BASARA Battle Heroes? That sounds dangerously close to BASRA Battle Heroes. Someone call the Daily Mail quick!

Such a waste of a Mhunter game, putting it on the Wii. Put the ports on the PSP and put the sequels on the proper consoles ffs.

@evilfoxhound Um I did say in part, the other part being how more western style games appear to be beginning to make some headway in Japan.

Wow, Killzone 2 at No.3. Given the Japanese don't generally go for FPS, that's impressive work by Sony.

Hopefully they're on such a roll they'll make an English version of Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 3 happenprettyprettypleaseSony

Halo 3 sold better than Killzone 2, even in Japan.

It's about time Japanese charts stopped being dominated by an undeserving Nintendo!

@CitizenGeek
According to Joystia - PS3 sales are down compared to last minth, while Wii sales are up link.
So maybe the undeserving Nintendo are about to start dominating again?
