Once upon a time, upcoming PS3 game FolksSoul was called Monster Kingdom: Unknown Realms. Then somebody (dunno who) probably decided that that title was too generic. So, they decided to change it to something different and stupid — Hence, the current moniker FolksSoul. Not only is it annoying in its own right, just look at that kooky spacing!

If you live in Japan and are far less superficial than I (hopefully you are!), perhaps you can move past the game's ridiculous title and get excited about the FolksSoul demo that should be hitting the PlayStation Network either next month or sometime in June when the game goes on sale.

And if that goofy title wasn't enough, T.M. Revolution's side project, abingdon boys school (above), is lending a new song to the game. Who is T.M. Revolution? He's a big time Japanese popstar who used to be married to Yumi from J-pop duo Puffy AmiYumi. And "T.M. Revolution" stands for "Takanori Makes Revolution." Silly names all around! Brian Ashcraft
