The Halo 3 blitz, Japan style

Many gamers in North America are probably cuddled up with copies of Halo 3. While Halo 3 came out a few hours ago it’s still a couple of days until Master Chief arrives in Japan. Retailers are getting ready with humongous Halo 3 displays with boxes for the special edition Halo 3 Xbox 360. Take a look at what Asobit City has set up.

To complement the displays Microsoft has been heavily promoting Halo 3 with TV ads too and a budget pack with the first two games. Will Japan bite and pick up Halo 3?
