Microsoft is sticking with their strategy of pulling in adult gamers in Japan. Their next set of platinum collection budget releases has a double pack containing Gears of War and Dead Rising. Both of which are rated CERO Z (equivalent to AO) games. Other budget releases include Blue Dragon and Earth Defense Force X for a cool 2,940 yen a piece ($25). All of these games are region locked, but the Asian version of Gears of War is region free. Usually Asian platinum collection releases come out around the same time as Japan. So you may be able to net a cheap version of Gears of War soon.
