The Tempura of the Dead is a game in which you can switch between playing as President Obama/Lupin Tompson and a no-nonsense samurai at the press of a button. Zombies and other assorted creatures have overtaken the United States, and it's up to you to juggle undead heads and save the country.
It is incredible. Specifically, The Tempura of the Dead is incredible in that it feels like it came from an alternate universe where videogame graphics were unable to progress beyond what we had in the '80s but everything else was. Watch the intro above and gather up three dollars for this Xbox LIVE Indie game.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

I agree with KaL. When I had 360 console, it was always difficult to me to transfer money in Microsoft points. Points cards are difficult for finding and they completely not cheap here. In the near future I am going to get 360 again, but the majority of games interesting me are in section Indie and to buy them to me it is necessary to pass through a hell.
If Microsoft have officially started service in my poor country, I wouldn't face a such problem.
I most likely would buy this game, if could, but could not.

Yea man.... never understood why some of them ignore the PC. It can't be too time consuming and expensive to port these games to the PC. Plus they can make a lot more money.
I'm trying to figure out how much of the Engrish is deliberate homage to old-style games and how much of it is just because they are apparently a genuine Japanese indie developer.

Not everyone who owns a 360 can even uses Indie - We will buy your products if you put it on the PC, thanks.

Either way, loving it!
