Microsoft tries again in Japan with Xbox 360

When it comes to Japan and the Xbox 360, you can't say that Microsoft isn't trying. Microsoft said it is attracting to the platform some of the biggest names in Japanese gaming to produce games in 2007 and beyond during a press event at the Tokyo Game Show on Wednesday.
By any standard, the Xbox 360 has been an abject failure in Japan, the home of both Sony and Nintendo. Even in the PS3's darkest days in the country, it was still outselling Microsoft's console by at least a 2 to 1 margin. But to Microsoft's credit, they're not taking it sitting down.
