Just got the press release. So it's day-and-date with the hardware... in Japan at least.

 

[Mrbob]

And North America and Europe.

 

[Kobun Heat]

Had they said that? I just saw "Christmas holiday portfolio" in the official thread.

And apparently this girl is doing the voice of Joanna in the Japanese version.

 

[PhatSaqs]

Awesome.

 

[Kabuki Waq]

And North America and Europe.

link?

 

[Doom_Bringer]

Awesome.

ya it's going to sell millions of copies in Japan!! those doodz love FPS's!!!

AWESOME!

 

[pxleyes]

Well, if it is Dec. in Japan, it BETTER be in the US before that, maybe at launch at that point.

 

[Mrbob]

Actually, I'm not too sure about Europe. I read an article about PD0 being out at North American launch but I can't find it now. Maybe I misread. Anyway, Nov 22 to Dec 2 to Dec 10 isn't too long of a timeframe. I'm confident PD0 will make each territory launch even if i can't find the link at the moment.

 

[Kobun Heat]

Well, I'll tell Microsoft to just take me off their press release list then, and Mrbob can just tell me every time they're about to announce something.

 

[Mrbob]

Sounds good to me.

But I only comment for PD0.

 

[cvxfreak]

Hmm, this is certainly surprising.

 

[Rhindle]

PD0, Kameo and PGR3 are all confirmed as day and date launch titles.

 

[Mrbob]

VICTORY!

I knew I wasn't crazy and read about PD0 somewhere:

http://www.gamespot.com/news/6135026.html

In an effort to clear up the confusion, GameSpot asked David Reid, director of platform marketing for Xbox, what the exact 360 launch lineup is. He said that "there will be 15 to 20 Xbox 360 titles available on launch day" with around another half-dozen making it to market by the end of the year. For the moment, though, he would only confirm eight titles as being available the same day and date as the 360: Project Gotham Racing 3, Kameo, Perfect Dark Zero, Madden NFL 06, NBA Live 06, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06, Need for Speed Most Wanted, and FIFA 06: Road to FIFA World Cup.

Dude, that's Shura Yukihime! I better turn my blog into a PDZ fansite and stat!

 

[Jonnyram]

Someone please tell me PGR3 will be a launch title in Japan as well.
Last I heard, it was down for a January release.

 

[Wunderchu]

Just got the press release. So it's day-and-date with the hardware... in Japan at least.

I don't dispute that you actually got a press release, but this site shows what titles will be available in Japan, and PD0 isn't one of them:

http://www.xbox.com/en-US/tgs2005/titlesannounced.htm

.. perhaps it was a typo, or a mistake?


either that site is wrong (or out of date), or that press release you got is wrong (or out of date)....

i'd hit it.

 

[Speevy]

This will outsell Brain Training 84. I just know it.

:/

probably out of date considering TGS 2005 happened like 2 weeks ago?

 

[Kobun Heat]

It's very much up-to-date and correct. It was sent mere minutes ago and the entire press release is about PD0 and its launch date.

 

[Jonnyram]

It says 2005/12/10 on the PD0 page:
http://www.xbox.com/ja-JP/xbox360/pdz/default.htm

Click the 2nd link, then the sublink that appears underneath.

Never mind that, here's the press release:

You know its just a voice though right? You wont get to actually see her.

 

[DCharlie]

i still think about that advert ... when i'm alone...

 

[BioFan]

[civilstrife]

Can I put in a request for a PDZ sticky? this shit is getting rediculous.

 

[Jonnyram]

Morishita Chisato, one of my faves

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

so is there a full list of japanese launch releases?

 

[Troidal]

Jonnyram, is Luigi puking in your avatar?

 

[Wunderchu]

so is there a full list of japanese launch releases?

the link I posted above (this one: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/tgs2005/titlesannounced.htm ) seems to list Japanese launch games .. However, it seems that the list @ that link is either incomplete, or out of date, because IMO, it has basically been confirmed in this thread that PD0 will be a launch title in Japan, but PD0 is nowhere to be found on that list that I linked to...

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

no god-damn kameo? screw 360

 

[quetz67]

As long as no game has gone gold we dont have any sure launch titles.

 

[Gamedude]

Can someone post the English Joanna Dark voice actor? only to make things worse :lol

 

[swordsman]

Confuse??
And Europe??
Better be Dec the 2nd or else I will smack some faces at MS.
I want PDZ on the launch day and nothing else.

 

[Jonnyram]

Jonnyram, is Luigi puking in your avatar?

No, it's the Game Watch logo... I should try and p.shop it out really

 

[ThirdEye]

ya it's going to sell millions of copies in Japan!! those doodz love FPS's!!!

:lol

 

[DCharlie]

"ya it's going to sell millions of copies in Japan!! those doodz love FPS's!!!
AWESOME!"

well, Killzone 3 has suddenly made it onto the massively over-rated "most wanted chart"...

 

[psycho_snake]

Nice! I never planned on buying a Xbox360, but PD0 looks so good!

 

[Matlock]

Just got the press release. So it's day-and-date with the hardware... in Japan at least.

 

[Xenon]

darn it...I love her....she's hot in princess blade and godzilla vs mechagodzilla...She's hot and talented...I hope they'll have an option for the japanese sub for the American version, but doubt it/

Do you actually want to play this game in Japanese w/ english sub titles? :lol

 

[BigBoss]

Do you actually want to play this game in Japanese w/ english sub titles? :lol

After hearing Joanna's voice, yes.
