'Awesome Master of Badass Beating-Up-People Guys' Game Officially Titled 'Badass Rumble'

Atlus today announced the results of a recent survey meant to help the publisher select the North American title of Kenka Bancho 3, revealing that Spike's PSP beat 'em will be released as "Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble" in the territory early next year.

"The title was voted in by a 3-to-1 margin, which means that fans strongly felt it was the best fit for the game, or, that they all giggled uncontrollably at the sight of the word 'badass,'" explained Atlus PR and sales manager Aram Jabbari.

I'll admit voting for "Badass Rumble," but to be honest, "Awesome Master of Badass Beating-Up-People Guys" was really starting to grow on me. Sadly, it seems the long-winded phrase was more of a rough translation than an actual possibility.

      I think the publicity of releasing it as "Awesome Master of Badass Beating up People Guys" would completely outweigh the few who were turned off by the title.
