Genji creator is "allergic to crabs"

Thursday 15-Feb-2007 3:11 PM PS3's "massive damage" issue solved
7 Comments
Ever wondered why PS3 bruiser Genji: Days Of The Blade features that infamous giant marauding crab? Well after some digging the mystery has finally been solved, thanks to a confession by Genji creator Yoshiki Okamoto.

"Obviously no-one among us believes there were giant crabs in feudal Japan," Okamoto told PSM3 via his translator. "But Okamoto is allergic to crabs and that's the reason why, if you find its weak point, you can kill it with one blow. It's Okamoto's way of defeating the crab he hates." Massive damage indeed.

You can read the full crab-based bombshell in the latest issue of PSM3, which is on magazine stands now.

Wow, someone harbours some serious resentment for their allergies. I don't think hes missing that much due to his inability to ingest crabs...
Or perhaps this is some sort of Japanese attempt at crazy humor...

Either way...

I'm confused..so why was the crab in the demo?

Because they roamed the villages of feudal Japan.
