    and what about OSU! TATAKAE! OUENDAN!?
    isn't it wacky enough?

    Ouendan is probably the only Japanese-language game I will ever play. That series is so awesomely weird, I can't help but love it!

    I definitely agree. Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan not only has dancing male cheerleaders, it also has ramen chefs who are skilled in the art of cleaning, ghosts, and who can forget the BUSINESSMAN WHO CAN GROW GIANT. Seriously, that game was weird. And awesomely so.

    Ok so you did make things more interesting on the second part XD;
    Kinda sad that Bishi Bashi is not on it afterall D: But Incredible crisis was which is awesome XD

    I didn't get number 4 though O.o

    Seems like someone has been digging around Hardcore Gaming 101, eh?

    Incredible Crisis should have been higher on the list. Im proud to own the actual western copy.

    Yay, Zombies vs Ambulance!
    I love that game. Even though it's very cheap and repetitive after a while.
    (PAL Gamers might find it labeled "Zombie Virus" in bargain bins)

    Also, I need #3 :woohoo:

    Wow... how much would people enjoy playing that if it wound up on the PlayStation Network, ala Wii's "Imports" section of the Shop Channel?

    I did a double take when I heard that. Like... "Who did I just see on TV then...??"

    That was cool, but the last game isn't actually Japanese.

    EDIT: Actually, my bad; I was thinking of the wrong game.

    The number 1 was amazing :woohoo:

    Isn't the soundbite for the countdown numbers used in Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares?

    WOW this first game was crazy ass

    my bet was Segata San Shiro

    Yet again, inability to do basic research. Best zombie game sure as hell isnt from Japan. Look up "Survivor Crisis Z" and be blown away.

    And yet again, more games that just arent wacky enough. Dudes, if you two dont have enough gaming experience or game knowledge - dont make top10's. Common sense.

    XD My friend has the number three...

    Try and take it with a pinch of salt as its all about opinions. I would try and take that comment back about not enough experience and knowledge if you go and watch their retro corners and other top 10s in the future. I can safely say Larry and Wez have some of the best gaming knowledge in the UK easily.

    ...Hongkong is in Japan now?

    Inability to do research on a Zombie game not released in Japan, for a Top Ten episode about Wacky Japanese games?

    ...Okay :s

    Lol, I know Kurt from 101 quite well, I've helped him out a few times in the past on articles and tidbits of information.

    It's a game that needs to be experienced!!!

    As for Segata, we just couldn't' find a copy in time (well not without paying silly amounts for it on eBay) I'd have had PepsiMan in there too if we had the money :(

    Oh, lordy... I can vaguely remember reading about PepsiMan... it looked freakin awesome at the time!

    Thanks bud! I'm honoured you like our stuff Sir, means a lot to us!!! :D

    This would make a fantastic ongoing series for you guys. If there's anything you will never run out of, it's weird Japanese games. Keep up the great work.

    I would love to play that zombie ambulance game, actually. It's like a cool version of Crazy Taxi only you don't have to listen to the same Offspring song every time and you get to run over zombies (who doesn't fantasize about that?). I think you sold me on it. B)

    And before anyone bitches about the Manhunt 2 thing, this was made BEFORE it was officially released over here.

    But the BBFC censored it.

    This list needs more Super Galdelic Hour and Hanjuku Hero.

    I'm still pretty scarred by large breasted mentally handicapped Teletubbies chopping down masochistic trees.
