Xbox 360 Japan Launch Titles Cursed?

Gaming's Babino Jinx?

Originally, slated to be a 360 Japan Launch title, Namco's Frame City was pushed back to sometime before Feb. 2006. Now, it looks like the game won't see the light of day until next spring.

Frame City is set in a futuristic metropolis and follows an assassin on a mission to bump off the head of a powerful drug cartel. This is the first game by a Japanese developer to use the powerful Unreal Engine 3 technology. Along with Dead or Alive 4 and Enchant Arm, the game is the third launch title to be delayed. Not to be superstitious, but it seems like A). Either there's some sort of 360 jinx in Japan or B). There's been a series of unrealistic deadlines set.

Delay Notice [Namco] Thanks Higon!
