Tecmo Koei: Xbox 360 Is Doing "Well" In Japan [Japan]
Remember when the Xbox 360 launched in Japan? Boy, that was embarrassing! Microsoft has turned things around of late and found a small degree of success in the region. “Xbox 360 as a business is doing better than the old Xbox,” Tecmo Koei boss Kenji Matsubara tells game site Kikizo. “They have a good opportunity for growth, but of course Sony is a Japanese company and Microsoft is...

Like they did with the Big Daddies , 2K have released some concept art for BioShock’s tiniest denizens, the Little Sisters.

And they look…well, pretty much identical. Which...

Japanese Games Market Down A Whopping 25% [Japan]
Publisher/market research firm Enterbrain this week released some sales data for the Japanese market. And the data is not good.

The drop in software sales wasn’t quite as bad, but it was still pretty bad, with game sales down 22%. That averages out to...

LittleBigPlanet: We’re Ready To Believe You [Lbp]
Not much of a teaser this, is it? Unless there’s some obscure British pop culture icon that also says “who ya gonna call?” we’re somehow not aware of, it’s pretty clear we’ll soon be getting some Ghostbusters DLC for LBP. Cuddly proton packs? Big-eyed slimer? The chance to create a level where Janine is brought together with her true love, Egon Spengler? We’d...
