Weekly Movie/Music update: Around 80 new J-Pop, Anime, Soundtrack & Movie releases - Kat-Tun Queen of Pirates Tour (DVD), Biohazard Dengeneration (movies), Pop'n Music Request Best! (OSTs) & much more!

Welcome to this week's Movie/Music news roundup, containing new Japanese and Hong Kong Video and Music releases from this week listed at Play-Asia.com. Around 80 new items are covered in this week, including new J-Pop, Anime as well as Japanese, Hong Kong and Western movie releases and much more.

This week has been mostly calm with major game and music releasing countries enjoying their national Christmas and New Year Holidays. Still, a popular band and some music producers managed to squeeze their works through the slowly diminished end-of-year line.

Kat-Tun, another one of Johnny's chart toppers recorded the last concert of their Queen of Pirates Tour and gave it to their fans as a New Year present. Debutting as a rock band, the DVD is filled to the brim with exciting fast paced tracks and passionate dance numbers.

Spend your New Year holidays with your idols and introduce them to your family and friends whenever you have the opportunity.

Still not enough excitement? How about a night with charging zombies, ceaseless gun fire and cutting edge computer graphics? The Umbrella incident in Raccoon City is resolved and people have been living somewhat peaceful lives until the undead started popping up again.

Christmas or New Years need not be blissful or peaceful if you know where to look, and we are pointing you to the direction of Biohazard Degeneration.

Bemani's Pop and cute rhythm games Pop'n Music and its music producers have also brought their fans something to spice up their New Year parties by. Created for fans, Pop'n Music Request Best! contains the long versions of songs with the most votes.

Besides the fan favourite tracks, a composer and major contributor to the game also released his first album, Plug+Program. Another interesting game soundtrack is Lord of Vermillion, Square Enix's excellent arcade trading cards game.

Here's a summary of all new releases that were published between Saturday, December 27th and Friday, January 2nd, 2009. If some specific item that you are looking for is missing, please don't hesitate to contact our customer service with your request.
