People are really interested in Microsoft's Blue Dragon. Is it because they want to see the first work of Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi? Is it because they want to see just how bad MS can screw up in Japan? Is it because if you set up a line, Japanese people are compelled to stand in it? Who knows!
