Phantom Dust Bonuses For Japan
Microsoft continues to pamper its small Japanese Xbox audience with cool bonus stuff. The companys latest release, Phantom Dust, will include as part of its first run three awesome bonuses. Players who buy early (or late, as the game probably wont sell enough to clear its first run) will get a guide book detailing 135 skills from the game, an illustration card detailing the games control scheme and an outer sleeve for the game. All this for the standard price. Phantom Dust is the latest game developed by Microsofts internal Japanese game studio. The game places players in an arena for third person battle to the death against up to three opponents. Players can collect skills to develope their very own personal fighter. Xbox Live compatibility is, of course, standard. A Japanese release for Phantom Dust is set for 9/23. Microsoft has yet to comment on a stateside release, although it has promised release in Singapore, Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong.Source: http://www.ign.com
