bring the game noise!

It’s hard not to root for any western games, and hope they get a foothold in the Japanese market. GTA3 and GTA: Vice City aside, the Japanese market is not friendly to yoh-gei (western games).

So it always evokes curiousity about sales figures when something like Majesco’s Bloodrayne (1, not 2) ships here two years after its western release, and charges full price for the PS2 version and typically high for the PC version (¥7140 and ¥8329, respectively). Maybe they'll time the sequel to come out with the movie here?
