Wonder if Afrika is good or not? From the trailers that I watched, it seems like the Wii game, Endless Ocean or something like that.

I think even more startling than that is the number of Wii Fits that have been sold. 2 million+? Insanity.

The most startling news is that Ellie finally gets to review a game that just might be good!
Depends if she's busy, she may have to go and meet here mum in which case the game must be shit ;) |

eh? im not sure why this got an article in Urogamer.
Is it because its a shock hit for a non traditional game or because of another less opaque reason? (sony luvin?) Surely the headline should have been related to the success of the more popular nintendo title? anyway, too late now... and stop whinging about reviewers you lot at the back! could be worse, could be the Kikizo's Haze review.... heh heh, legendary |

Evilfoxhound, I'm not sure if masturbating over Lions and Rhinos in the wild is that much better to be honest :/

The most noteworthy thing about it is that a PS3 exclusive made it to number 2, which is statisically improbable due to the relatively low saturation of PS3's in Japan. Also, Africa is a game a few people in the occident are rather interested in; I hope it will do very well in Japan and be launched in Europe too as a result of it. Seems like a very family friendly game, we need more of those. |

The hardware numbers you pinched from NeoGAF (or whichever blog did the pinching) are Famitsu numbers and not the final Media Create figures. You should aim to use one source or the other and not mix and match.

Interesting... I can see how pretty much every PS3 owner over there would want Arika as it's exactly the sort of non-combatant game that appeals to the Japanese, I just didnt think there would be enough PS3's to generate such high sales..
It does look very nice, but I really can't see it appealing to the average* US or Europe gamer though. *Average: not necessarily you or I. |
