Thats MAD! 8O

..this just in: Matsuya to release their own version immediately!

The whole simulated existance thing is really selling by the truck-load these days.


Out of interest: what game would you most or least like to see yourself playing that simulates work (or otherwise)?
...how about Virtual Indonesian Nike Sweat-shop Running Shoe Assembler
or...Virtual Posting On Fg.com :wink:

That's easy. It's Tapper. From the customer's perspective of course.

Didn't they change Tapper from beer to rootbeer in some bizarre effort to "sanitize" the game for children?

Yeah, they made a less adult version to cater to the kiddies who weren't old enough to drink. Not that this actually stopped them from drinking anyway.

This game could probably be a lot of fun. It's overpriced though, even in the land of 6,000yen new releases. It's a silly, niche game, but if they priced it at 1,990 or 2,490, they could probably sell a bunch of copies to people who may not have otherwise bought it.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming...

Once again, FG leads the way!

Slashdot (via Gamespot) had a post about this one today - a mere 44 days behind FG. :D

Gamespot does have a nice collection of screenshots up, including one I don't quite get. What's this guy doing in a beef bowl restaurant?

Don't get me wrong, I love Japanese food, but why are Japanese people so obsessed with food? Half of the shows on TV are just about people eating.

The game looks funny though.

Japanese TV regulations require that 25% of all programming to be "educational". Food and quiz shows qualify as "educational". :roll:
