PS3 killer app? Gundam Musou

In North America, Koei’s Dynasty Warriors series has a cult following and the Gundam games released by Namco Bandai sell OK. However, both of these series are mega franchises in Japan. Now Koei and Namco Bandai are teaming up to bring together the two franchises into a crossover game in 2007. Gundam Musou brings together giant robots and mindless button mashing to the Playstation 3. No matter how ridiculous the crossover sounds this is a game that is likely to be a Japanese system seller. Gundam Musou is going to be the first “musou” game on the Playstation 3 and it looks like the only game that might tweak the series formula to have more of a focus on ranged combat.
