DBZ Budokai on all consoles except XBox: Good thing.
Gundam games on all consoles except XBox: BAD!

C'mon, we XBox owners want hot MS action, too dammit! Crying or Very sad

Here's a little more salt for the wound, a gold Z Gundam PS2 bundle:

Probably a tribute to the Hyaku Shiki. I wish american companies would go for exclusives like these. Sad

Nagisa: you'd find that no Gundam games will go on Xbox, infact any anime-to-game adaptation that has a reasonable fanbase in Japan and America will pretty much NEVER see xbox treatment (which is a good thing) as the Xbox doesn't exactly do well in Japan.

Wow, gee, I never knew. Rolling Eyes I'm well aware the XBox is not a big hit in Japan. Unless you're some complete moron who doesn't know video gaming exists outside Grand Theft Auto, that's kinda common knowledge.

Watch that bias there, too, pal. I never did anything to spark some ignorant anti-XBox tirade here, and it's the last thing I care to hear. Confused All the consoles have about equal strengths & weaknesses and they all balance out in the end.

All gamers should think that way.

Yeah but the dumbasses who don't know sh*t about games and think "OMG, Grand Theft Auto is the greasted game ever made", don't think like reasonable people.

Simply stating a fact. The reason I said it was a good thing was because I do not own an Xbox and really could not be bothered to shell out even more money for one for a Gundam game

I'm guessing that it won't come to the US. there are other games that have come out for Xbox Japan and that aren't out here...can't name any though, but I'm pretty sure there are.

Where's your logic in that? There are plenty of Gundam games that have come out for the US, so why wouldn't this one unless it turned out really bad in Japan. Also we're talking about a Gamecube game, not Xbox. Wink
