(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); As all you you may know, the Xbox 360 is not doing so well in Japan, in terms of sales and games. The console barely reached it's 1 million sales mark a few weeks ago. Microsoft decided at a press confrence to release 31 Xbox 360 games in Japan knowing that the the PS3 and Wii have more than twice as many sales each month than the 360. This drop of 31 games in Japan can either cause an increase in sales for the Xbox 360 console, or it will cause a major decrease in profits for Microsoft, the game developers, and the game publishers.

Here are some of the games:

Magna Carta 2 (Namco Bandai, August 6 release)
