The Japanese generally eschew the wholesale violence that seems to be the taste of many gamers in the West. Games like Grand Theft Auto, Quake, and the like don't sell nearly as much copies in Japan as they do here. But of course, every good game needs some sort of conflict to drive it. So they make up for this with their own "take" on things -- instead of wanton destruction and killing, we get this:
The Daibijin -- roughly translated to English, it means "The Big Beauty". From a online seller's description: A 17 year old girl named Riho Futaba has grown to a height of 48 meters, and is attacking japan in her bikini. Slow her down with tanks, helicopters, planes, all the while taking pictures in order to analyze how she came upon this condition.
Ahhh, yes, I love Japan.

I think this video game idea was borrowed from "Dude, where's my car?".

So why is she attacking japan? do they hate tall people and so she is rebeling? I'm confused. Why can't she be a friendly giant? helping people get things from the top shelves...er... top stories of buildings...
