Well...1.4billion people. the World's number 1 economy now. Everything China does is huge. Avatar made more money in china than anywhere else.

The land mass is about the size of the US. Megacities here have average populations of over 15 million with Beijing and Shanghai having well over 22 million. The top US cities Read more

but MHO is newer with new monsters, new weapons, new features. it looks awesome. Read more

Well China has an online gaming market that's double the US population.DOUBLE THE US population. A rising if not heavily lopsided middle class.

People see China like the Japan of the 80's and the America of the 90's, so they're building brands and names and games hoping to cash in.

The problem with China however is Read more

Like i said, it's an issue of enforcement. I live in front of a high school and a convenient store and a 7/11. The 7 doesn't card so I've seen some of the older looking kids not in uniforms buy Cigarettes. But the convenient store doesn't do anything, the kids just go up and buy cigarettes. As to the drinking, I've Read more

It depends...Enforcement of laws are an issue. Technically it's like 20, but you can buy tobaccco and drink at like 14, that's also age of consent =[. Personally I would say adult hood in China's like 30. Read more

Well, if they're living in the dorms and they've got internet access, the school will know. Chinese dorms have like patrols =[. There's also that one person who is a snitch cause well students join the CCP. Read more

The way it's worded is that this hits China first, leaving it open that this may hit out west at some point. But judging how COD online and MHO online have yet to hit China and the west, it's safe to say this is China only. Read more

I hope it's not a grindathon. The wording if "freely" translated states that the game will still retain alot of the fun "loot" elements. Then again...it's also supposed to have MMO features. Read more

seriously, when I read this - I literally faceplamed myself... Read more

If I had the list, it would already be up! SMG is and MS (and probably) sony will keep a tight lid on numbers.

249's alot more reasonable than it sounds, considering Chinese with money spend money on some of the worst things ever. You're seeing more and more people actually willing to pay money. If we extrapolate, Read more

It'll probably be the same problem. Though it's unknown how much home work Sony did in advance. They probably submitted a boat load of games for review before the system launch. MS from what I understand submitted stuff after pinning down a date for their launch. Read more

MS has been charging around 249 per game. That's not too bad with exchange rates at around 6 rmb to the dollar it's about $40. Though, keep in mind, China has 1.4 billion people. A boat load is in poverty, which weighs down the average. China's got A LOT OF RICH people and and growing middle class. (not the same Read more

I've got a PS4 and an Xbox One, I've yet to splurge on the Wii U but I'll definitely be getting one for Smash and the new Zelda. I just have to justify the purchase....Student loans, back taxes, health care etc, my kid cousin's tuition... It sucks being an adult with responsibilities.

I would say this for all the fan Read more

That's how i feel about infinity blade, yet i've purchased everyone. Read more

I thought it was meant to be a kinect game? I'm pretty sure the Kinect version never came out. Read more

It appears that they do have a controller option but the game is meant to be played with the Kinect. I'll know more when it hits, cause my Chinese Xbox is itching for games that aren't Just Dance and Naughty Kitties. Read more

Hey hey, the Chinese Xbox needs all the games it can get. With Tencent behind this - i expect passing regulations to be slightly easier. Read more

Yup - I know - I"m adding that in there. I wrote this while I was sick. In fact, I'm typing this reply with a massive fever. Read more
