While Eye of Judgment never became a runaway hit for Sony, the PlayStation Eye-enabled, augmented reality card game has a small, but dedicated fan base. Unfortunately for them, the online community will be discontinued on September 30, according to a notice on the European PlayStation forums. “Offline play will remain available even after the conclusion of online service,” the announcement adds, meaning EoJ fans will have to meet in person to continue competitively playing.
While it’s not uncommon for online games to be discontinued, it does leave fans with few options. Some EoJ players are planning to move on to the PSP version, Legends (which doesn’t require physical cards). Others, however, feel betrayed by Sony. “I am afraid that my long lasting relationship with SCEA/E/J products end 9/30,” one fan commented on the forums.

The combination of new hardware and a “newish” Monster Hunter gave the Xbox 360 a considerable sales bump in Japan last week. Media Create reports that 17,000 Xboxes were sold in that time (versus 2,060 the previous week); 15,000 being the new model. That hardware sales rise coincides with the sale of 92,807 copies of Monster Hunter Frontier OnlineBeginner’s Package. Neither the new Xbox owners nor the existing ones saw any need to round out their game collections with additional games — there were no other 360 games among the top 50 bestselling software for the week.
Though Xbox 360 sales were much higher last week relative to the console’s typical performance in Japan, the clear winner was the DSi LL, thanks to a combination of several factors: a price cut, the release of three new colors of the system, and Love Plus+, the latest version of Konami’s breakout hit dating game … which also coincided with three more special-edition DSi LL systems. See the rest of the top ten bestsellers after the break.
