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!

"The japanese sure are kings"

isn't it wacky enough?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.

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

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?

That was cool, but the last game isn't actually Japanese.
EDIT: Actually, my bad; I was thinking of the wrong game.

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

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.

Finally someone British on this I love this website and I love you guys. I've been waiting for part 2 for what seams like ages. Love you both

Common sense.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.

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

my bet was Segata San ShiroIt'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!

And wiki page created. What do you think? http://thatguywiththeglasses.wikia.com/wiki/Wez_%2B_Larry%27s_Top_10
I think it needs more beef. Anyway, good video, dude. Those are some weird gaes. I'm still not over that playing a mosquito sucking blood game. That was just...weird. It's like this bug version of Chibi Robo.

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.

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