Jamzy Is All Over This NXE Stuff
The NXE didn't just hit in the US and Europe. It hit the world over. How's the rest of the world taking things? Well, if Jamzy's any indication, the rest of the world is doing just fine, thank you very much. As you can see by our favourite Japanese Xbox 360 fanboy's eerily life-like avatar.
Wonder if those hair options were included in the NXE just for Jamzy? We'd like to think so.

How Japan's Numero Uno Xbox 360 Fanboy Spent June
Look at your calendars! It's July. Last month was very busy for Japan's biggest Xbox 360 fanboy Jamzy. Jamzy occupied himself with video games, some lady's bellybutton and dog cake. Jamzy's list of game's he played last month includes two PSP games (Tales of Rebirth, Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G), two DS games (Derby Stallion DS, Daigassou Band Brothers DX) and two Xbox 360 games (Mobile Suit Gundam Operation: Troy, Battlefield Bad Company). That's right, Jamzy doesn't play PS3 or Wii — he's serious, haircutting business! In the picture above, Jamzy plays through Battlefield Bad Company at an EA event. After the jump, his dog has a birthday part, and Jamzy puts the animal in funny outfits. Ah, to be the underdog's dog... More »

Jamzy: The Game
Been a while since we last saw Jamzy. So what's Japan's #1 Microsoft fanboy been up to since? Oh, he's been keeping himself very busy. Busy designing games! Not real games, as in ones you can one day walk into a store and buy. Dream games, as in ones that Microsoft Japan aren't making, but in Jamzy's dreams, probably should be (that's his dog, and the text reads: "Oh, long time no see. Well, today, Jump In"). I mean, shit, I'd pay $50 for a game about little dogs and wacky hairstyles. Bet most of Japan would, too.

Japan Xbox 360 Fanboy Replies to Kotaku Readers
The bravest journalist working in Japan today replies! Previously, we brought word of a new haircut our favorite Japanese Xbox 360 fanboy and Famitsu staffer Jamzy. Over at Famitsu, he's actually gone through an addressed comments our commenters had. Don't remember which of you knuckleheads wrote what, but here are some highlights:
Jamzy looked like he was 50 years old in the last picture
"Wasn't the reason I looked like I'm 50 because there was a giant wrinkle in my brow? lol"
Haircuts in Japan cost something like $200
"Sure, places usually charge that, but me... The place where I go charges nothing extra for designs like this lol"
His glasses
"Thanks for the kind words! I bought them at a-look in Shinjuku."
Whether he's got an English blog or not
"Bummer, but there's no English site. Eh, write each time in English? Sorry, tough..."How rad is this? It's stuff like a dude shaving game logos into his heads, commenters adding their two cents and then said dude replying to those comments that really make getting out of bed truly worth it. What's more, Jamzy even was cool enough to write a message in English. That after the jump! More »

Our Favorite Japanese Xbox 360 Fanboy's New Hairdo
Holy crap! Our favorite Japanese Xbox 360 fanboy and Famitsu writer has cut his hair again. Last we saw him he had a Halo 3 logo shaved into the side of his noggin. That's nothing, and this time he is so not fucking around. This time, he's gotten four, count 'em four, designs etched into his scalp. His head is a game billboard! Here's the rundown: In the front, he got a 3D Xbox 360 iconic logo. A simple "X" is shaved on the back of his head. The side of his head is a Garuda team logo Ace Combat 6 and the opposite side is from the Assassin's Creed logo. Total time for these creations: Four hours. You know, Jamzy isn't only the most entertaining game journalist in Japan at the moment, but probably on our spinning blue planet known as Earth.
Us, we're really hoping gaming haircuts will take off as the next big thing. Game tattoos are so, you know, permanent. Hair grows back — that is, unless you are bald!

Our Favorite Microsoft Fanboy Replies to Kotaku
Sometimes we forget that people besides our mothers actually read Kotaku. But, apparently they do! Like our new favorite Microsoft fanboy Jamzy, he reads the site — or rather, his friend does. When his buddy congratulated Jamzy for this post, his reaction was "That's so wwww that, of all things?! w" As the Ws indicate, Jamzy genuinely seemed tickled
pinkgreen by it. He even translated the entire post, line-by-line for the Famitsu readers *and* some of Kotakuland's comments. To top it off, he wrote Luke and Kotaku a note. It reads:
Dear Luke and kotaku Members.

Thanks for introducing me and my weblog on your site.
And now you guys visit my place, huh?
Thanks anyway.
In fact, I...no my head already got reserved for next design.
