Kenka Bancho 3 is a brawler for the PSP that Atlus just secured the publishing rights for, scheduled for release in 2010. In it, you play as a high school student on a class trip to a Japanese city. Fighting breaks out, hilarity ensues. That's great -- no issues here. The issue is the name: it might not go over so well here in America.
Because of this, Atlus looks to their fans for a better name than Kenka Bancho 3. They've set up a page to tell you a bit about the game and the original name, and then let you pick a new name. It's multiple choice, and one of the choices was "badass." I picked that one, naturally.
That's great that Atlus is letting us pick a name. It would have been chaos if they simply let us suggest one. I suggest
Kenka Kancho 3. No?

In the end I went with the obvious choice. Badass. Because naming your game BADASS is. . . amazing.
...
BADASS
I dare to be different .
I vote for Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble. This is better, as it keeps the original name for the purist fans, and the added english adds a better description.
Another PSP game to add to my list.
I chose Badass but Badass Rumble is just as sweetness.
Just make a new Summon Night Swordcraft Story & Atlus will epitomize awesomeness like no other.
Mine?
FACE PUNCH AWESOME
