Blue Dragon

Joystiq reports that Microsoft's Blue Dragon title debuted at #4 on the Japanese software sales charts. This is a nice little win for Microsoft, especially considering the apathy I witnessed in Tokyo regarding the game. But over the last few weeks, we've been seing the interest in Blue Dragon growing as Japanese launch drew closer. Now it's obvious that there's some significant desire for the game. Questions: a) is the game any good? and b) will it sell X360s? I guess we will see. But look for Dragon Quest IX (the other series with Akira Toriyama character designs that has "dragon" in the title but isn't "Dragon Ball" or "Dragon Ball Z") to kill the hell out of everything in Tokyo when it comes out for the DS. I want it!
