Queen's Blade: Spiral Chaos - Namco Bandai - PSP
Europe
(none)
Well, uh, Final Fantasy XIII in Japan. I don't know what else to say here. It's a big deal, I've heard. Unless you understand Japanese and have a PS3, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until next year to get yours.
Japan is also getting a NSFW Queen's Blade PSP spinoff RPG, another edition of Koei's sailing MMO on PC and PS3, and yet another reprint of Ragnarok Online (I think we're up to 11 now, or something).
Meanwhile, North America gets another EverQuest expansion. Yay?
As far as I can tell, Europe appears to be sitting this week out.
Really, though. Final Fantasy XIII in Japan. I don't know how anything else on that list stands any chance against it. Whether it will be good or not remains to be seen, but no mistake, it'll be big, ridiculous boxart notwithstanding.
EDIT: Fixed the boxart mix-up. Sources differ on what it is, but this is the image Amazon Japan has. Thanks for everyone who pointed this out.

Is that the real box art? I thought they went with the plain logo-on-white for the Japanese version.
I was going to ask that same question.
bah nothing for usa.
anyways theres so many new games in general coming out starting next month.
it's crazy.
definitely a crowded Q1 for the usa.
I am so jealous of the Japanese people playing the game right this very minute. March cannot come quickly enough.
