Tales of the World, Demon's Souls take top spots in Japanese charts
12
The Japanese software charts for the week ending February 8 don't just feature one PlayStation game at the top of the list, but four. It's a grand slam victory for Sony as titles for all of its current systems (PSP, PS3 and PS2) occupy the top four slots. Those titles happen to be two RPGs and two soccer games.

The Asian (English text, voice is already English in Japanese version) comes out on the 25th, the day before Yakuza 3 and same day Europeans get Killzone 2!

Sony is having major success with this and the soon to be many sales of Killzone 2 in europe and the US. It is a great start of the year for the PS3.

I'm guessing a "3rd place" joke with that picture has been overdone already. So I'll just be moving on.

"Third Place" isn't a bad thing when you're profitable. All Sony really needs to do is break even with their gaming investments for the PS3 to be considered a success, and with the gaming industry growing at the rate that it is, Sony's gaming division has a bit more breathing room before they start getting -really- worried.

Monster Hunter is the best game there is full stop.
I would prefer to Get a PS3 Monster Hunter than Killzone 2, and I'm REALLY looking forward to KZ.
Truely gutted that it's gone to Wii!!!!
