Xbox360 is not so popular here in Japan but there are users.
Sure as hell Xbox LIVE is the most attractive feature of Xbox360 except Japanese people use it slightly differently. They don’t talk even if they are online and connect a headset. Japanese are so shy, don’t you think?
But can you believe it? Japanese players use Skype to talk with Japanese friends while playing online games. What!? And they talk with each other about a current team in the game and feel glad if someone from another countries says “Nice!” to them.
Hey! Please don’t think Japanese players are robots or rude! We are shy and just can’t express how we feel in English. We may not be the most talkative players but same as you we feel excited while playing! I hope this helps clear up any misunderstandings. Please be forgiving if we make a mistake or break gaming etiquette :)
