Coming to America

Blue Dragon was the game from Microsoft and Final Fantasy creator, Hironobu Sakaguchi, that was built to help get Japanese people interested in the 360 console. The RPG game is finally coming to America and Europe this August. Europeans can start playing Shu and his friends on August 24th, while us yanks have to wait until the 28th. I'm looking forward to it though it only gives me a little over 25 days to complete it before I start smashing it up with Halo 3.

Microsoft Kissing Japans Butt with Free Content

Japan should expect some downloadable content for Blue Dragon. Free downloadable content, which includes hard and super modes according to Joystiq. Microsoft is trying really hard to make a dent in the Japanese market. First they offer a great Blue Dragon bundle deal with the console lowered in price, free face plate, and figurines. Now they are giving them free content, which here in America is only done when there is a big sponsor to pick up the price tag.

I for one wish all Xbox owners would band together and just hold off on getting anything Xbox related so that our prices could come down or we could start getting free downloadable content. We know M$ can, they just won't as long as we are buying their stuff.
