So how was VF5 360 received in Japan?

Does anybody know how this game was received in USA and Europe?

 

I was hoping to play lots of experienced Japan players and kick their asses.

Except 2 things have denied me my crushing international victories.

i) Lag with Japan is HUGE. Against US or Eur, I have no problems, but Japan/Far East? Lag city.

ii) They're better than I expected...
