HarrasmentPanda spotted an ironic deal on CheapAssGamer for hardcore gamers obsessed with reading about games we'll see in 6 months (if we're lucky): You can now subscribe to the #1 Japanese game mag Famitsu via Amazon for the low, low price of $390/year! Or you could buy that heart transplant you've been putting off.
In all fairness, the math reveals that the sticker shock is reasonable: It only works out to a big lunch at BK a week ($7.50 per issue), but it's still a whopper of an annual sticker price to drop on a picture book. While I'd love to impress (all 2) of my friends with a magazine that's paginated backwards, I think I'd rather spend that on games and wait for the notable scans to pop up in the forums.
In other notable Famitsu news, it appears the PS3 tops their list of most-wanted games. Dare we call it a comeback?

That's an impressive list if you're a Japanese PS3 owner.
Only thing better than a robot is a giant one, or maybe 2.
Its more of a list about collective fanboy wet dreams.
No just kidding if I thought the PS3 or 360 sucked I wouldn't have bought either one but I did and the list looks good for the PS3 and the 360 has Halo 3... that's not a good sign is it?
