Whether that's true or not, I'm not sure how fun it would be to play this with the 360 d-pad, and there aren't any similar controllers for 360 at all.I think PSN would have been a better choice than XBL, despite the smaller install base.Of course, yeah....the "localized" art doesn't help. I wish they'd gone in a completely different direction instead of just a bad facsimile of the original style with SERIOUS 'TUDE added.
