in addition to destroying the last shred of japanese-as-dignified culture stereotyping, this game is ridiculously funny. instead of a computer game based on human games, this seems to be a human game based on computer games.

i just have one question, which bad 1970s sci-fi costume house is supplying those outfits?

Yeah, the costumes remind me of Logan’s Run. Very scifi kitchy.

I would watch hours of that show if it were on TV in the States.

I’d definitely watch this. Loved the koala bear cut-out. You can see the horror in the contestants’ eyes in some cases as they realize there’s virtually no way to get through what’s coming at them.

And the group attempts? Priceless. :-)
