Most gamers in the West have likely never heard of 2005's "Namco X Capcom," a tactical RPG developed by Monolith Soft for the PlayStation 2 that was only released in Japan. That game brought together characters from various Capcom and Namco games, ranging from "Ghosts N Goblins" to "Tekken," to combat the forces of evil. The game was never localized, and seemingly faded into obscurity as a quirky one-off that U.S. gamers would never get to experience. Fortunately for curious fans, the follow-up to "Namco X Capcom," "Project X Zone," has made its way to the States, complete with an expanded roster of publishers contributing characters.
"Project X Zone" blends the vast and varied worlds of a host of classic game franchises in a truly unique way: by culling characters for some of Namco Bandai, Capcom, Sega's biggest franchises, "X Zone" creates an experience that can't be rivaled, on any system.

Winning a love object’s affections can be complicated, but thanks to Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love, it’s now as simple as playing a tedious mini-game involving syncing up the movements of your controller’s joystick and the onscreen arrows. Do it right, and you’ll impress ladies with your skills at lifting heavy objects and fixing electronics. Mess up and be emasculated as they mock you for your incompetence.
