Xbox 360 game Crackdown cracks top 30 in Japan
Published: 1 hours ago; 9:32am PDT

Sales for Microsoft Corp.'s Crackdown cracked the top 30 software sales in Japan in the latest retail sales data for the region.

Media Create Co. on Fri. reported that Crackdown debuted at a respectable No. 21 between Feb. 19 and Feb. 25. The open-world action title is the sole Xbox 360 software title in the top 30 game sales.

In addition, Crackdown has held strong performance stateside, in part due to a promotion that will allow buyers to participate in a public beta test of Halo 3.

The Xbox 360 has incurred a steep decline in sales after a strong holiday retail season that held steady hardware movement at Japan stores. Game titles like Blue Dragon and Lost Planet performed well upon debut, but quickly gave way to the mass market Wii and Nintendo DS handheld from Nintendo Co.

Nintendo commanded the retail software charts in the latest sales data, taking 80 percent share of sales in the top ten game titles.

Sony Corp. was unable to rank software for the Playstation 3 in the top 30.
Microsoft expects to ship 12 million Xbox 360 units worldwide by fiscal June 2007.

Won't last long. Being in the top 30 games anywhere is an accomplishment, but not a very good one. As the article says, it's respectable. It's number 2 on Xbox Live activity list though.

1 Gears of War
2 Crackdown
3 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
4 Call Of Duty 3
5 GRAW 2 MP Demo

Well, It could move up in the list couldn't it?

And its an accomplishment for a 360 game to be in the top 30 in Japan, seeing as how people over there don't seem to like the 360 that much.
