RE5 Gold tops Japanese charts; Heavy Rain floods top ten
Even without the PlayStation Motion Controller to back it up, Resident Evil 5 has struck gold for a second time. The PS3 version of Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition (Alternative Edition in Japan) hit the top of the Media Create sales chart in Japan following its February 18 release, selling 143,339 copies. God Eater continues to gobble up attention, taking the #2 spot with 64,192 units sold (while passing 500k units sold to date).
Another big PS3 game also debuted in the top ten this week: Heavy Rain, which fell in at #6, selling 26,775 copies. In a way, the Japanese version is the superior release, because the voice acting doesn’t seem to have been performed by French people faking Japanese accents. See the full top ten after the break.

D3 serving God Eater to North America in Q3 2010
Namco Bandai’s God Eater debuted to strong sales in Japan upon its release on February 4. Namco Bandai — or rather, its subsidiary, D3 Publisher — has wasted no time in announcing a localized version of the PSP action RPG.
The Monster Hunter-like God Eater, targeted for a Q3 2010 release, puts players in control of “God Eaters,” people fighting against the monsters that have overtaken the modern world. They do this with transforming magical weapons called Jinki — giant weapons that become beast-like when powered up.
While you wait for Q3 to arrive, why not try the game right now? You can download the Japanese demo from the game’s website.

Japan getting God Eater sampling platter November 26
We like to consider ourselves open-minded when it comes to new culinary experiences, but we confess that we’ve never had the occasion to dine upon a god. We’ve heard that it’s a delicious (and sizable!) meal — in fact, on the latest episode of No Reservations, Anthony Bourdain described god-meat as being “light and airy, like aged pork, but with divine properties.” Japanese gamers (or PSP owners with a loose comprehension of the Japanese language) will be able to find out for themselves when a demo for God Eater launches on November 26.
The demo for the Namco Bandai-developed action-RPG will be fairly substantial, offering 10 missions, character customization and a small sliver of the game’s opening story sequence. It will also support four player co-op in the demo’s non-tutorial missions. The demo will be added to the Japanese PSN on Thanksgiving and will also be available on the game’s official site. Between those two options, we’re sure you’ll find some way to snack on a few celestial entities later this month.
