Well, this is weird. I logged into my Japanese account on Xbox Live today (it STILL WORKS) and found a playable demo of Eternal Sonata, the upcoming RPG of AWESOME where the battle system is based on MUSIC. You can't get it using a US account, I checked. But, oddly enough, when I play it, it shows the US rating system and the entire demo is in english. Maybe it detected my system's location code and has an english translation built in that's sensitive to that.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
