I miss the Golden Era of the PS1-PS2... Shit was actually GOOD back then. Good not like "HOLY SHIT LET'S SELL 10 MILLION COPIES OF CoD EVERY YEAR!!!" forced regurgitated bullshit good, but good like you remember the game for the rest of your life, and you even cry through some of the scenes good.
@JapanForSale Dude Your fucking telling me, I cant stand the BS they put out nowadays... They just go where the money is. Even "Enix" was awasome before the merge.. I just dont see any heart put into games anymore, touching your soul.
@chirijariden I take some of that back. Just finished Halo: Reach. Was well done, but on the other hand, who would have expected any less from Bungie, right? Glad we still have some people who know WTF they're doing in the industry in the West.
@JapanForSale Sorry for replying for a 3 months* old comment, but I disagree. I just played the game, and I punched myself over every single cut-scene, the script pictured Leo as such a fucking idealist retard with naiveness that goes beyond human capabilities. The final battle with Violet for an instance, he actually wails over her death. "Violet! Violet! You tried to kill me three times, killed my friends and wounded another! Don't die!"
There is a limit to how much cliche' one can take.
I honestly just found Leo to be obnoxious because he whined even when he gained power of a giant freaking robot.
Me? I'd be having fun blowing shit up ;P
But in all seriousness, the real problem was just that he and Viola had such little interaction that her ultimate fate makes it seem out of place. It'd be like if that kid from the one Gundam mini-series never befriended the dude that gets skewered near the end.
@Darkman9000 Not to talk about his humanitarian premise, he hammered his ill and naive ideals to a point I had to think that the writers were thinking "We're going to change a generation with these words of peace! ... In a play-to-kill video game...With giant robots...Yeah, people will totally pay attention to us now.".
And regarding Viola in the game: Indeed, Viola had so little to do with the game, almost as if the writers just wanted an antagonist and shrug off the game with disdain.
At least she got some enrichment in the prequel OVA, shame they couldn't have rereleased the first game to reflect her deeper character (though maybe they'll fix the dub in the HD collection).
As for Leo, it's hard to say if they were trying to go for a Shinji or an Amuro.
@Darkman9000 Oh, you just can't forget the obvious plot device "You're the one".
Ah somewhat teenager, is appearntly genetically accomidated to pilot a Jehuti against veteran, experienced, pilots; and win.
When Viola said : "This isn't just the bot, the kid is amazing by himself."
I could really feel the writers spitting on me, with their half-assed writing abilities; saliva was caressing my body an and aura of laothe was basking my flesh.
I'm curious if that was from the original Japanese or possibly some nonsense the translators came up with (wouldn't be the first time such a weird change is made in a port). Hopefully if they do redub the game, they'll redo the script to fix these oddities.
In this game, it's not a matter of phrasing; the perspective should be the same on both languages. (I.E: "The one" nonesense, a teenager is the only one who can pilot this thing? ..Really?)
We shouldn't discuss it too much, sure it's annoying and disrespectful to ... Older players, but the game has little point story-wise to begin with, gotta love those damn writers...
Doesn't mean some stuff couldn't have been altered. I recall reading that in the original Japanese dub of 2nd Runner, Nohman pretty much says he loves Dingo. Granted, it is of little consequence.
It's certainly possible. Especially if you consider the fact that nothing about "biometrics" or "genes" play a part in Dingo perfectly controlling Jehuty (if not better than that tool Leo). Odds are, it might have been tossed in just for the fun of it all.
@TrojenMonkey It's "Viola" to begin with. And, well, it shows that he might be a naive kid, but he has a heart, she has done wrong things, but she also was cut apart severely during her life, and was at peace then.
If you can sympethise with the script I really feel bad for you, the characters are polarized emphesis of what they are supposed to represent and no character development or depth was shown in any of them. Given the thought of doubt anyone really expected anything but cheesy script from a game about giant battle-bots, the characters are still ; really, really bad.
@TrojenMonkey I don't know about any technical shit, to me it's much simplier than that. If I enjoy something, I do, if I don't enjoy something, I don't, I just liked the game, and therefore I don't see any reason to rant about it.
Hideo Kojima has promised that he would produce the next game in the series, Zone of the Enders 3, at an unspecified point in the future.At E3 2011, Konami announced the 'Zone of the Enders HD Collection', a re-release of the two main Zone of the Enders games on the PS3 and Xbox 360 due out in 2012. It includes updated interfaces for the HD resolutions, redrawn art, Trophy/Achievement support, improved audio and rumble support. I AM NOT LYING!!!!
If it was just the MGS 2 demo that made Z.O.E. rated M, why didn't the ESRB rating say so? For example, with The Sly Collection for PS3; 2 of the games on the disk are rated E, the third is rated E10+. ESRB actually points this out with: Games included rated E-E10+ by the ESRB. Plus, the disk to Z.O.E. clearly has the M symbol on it, signifying the game's rating of M for Mature.
Is there ANY way to make an english version of this?? I know this is japanesse and all but I would like to hear and english version if there's any way to make one
Found out about this song while I was playing through MGS4. Whenever I was on Shadow Moses, I always played this music when I was out in the snow, particularly after I beat Crying Wolf.
man!!! this song reminds me of 2k1, i remember this when i first got my ps2 this was my first game and mgs2 was my second. aaaaw very good ole times :(.... LOL
i hope Z.O.E 3does come out for xbox and ps3 because its just such a great game it should be available to everyone. I hate exclusives because whats the fun in that?
This is so awesome, I had a dream just about last night before this post about a new game created by Hideo Kojima of a Red Orbital Frame, it was wearing a cloak and had a large body build. I know it's just a dream but I just remember it when I came to listen to these music. I'm trying my best to remember the name of that Frame, it start with Ro and ended in gun. :P but it's just a dream! Maybe its a foresight of Z.O.E 3.
I love how this soothing, poetic music is a beautiful centerpiece to the series, but is also creepy as all hell when reversed and transformed into The Origin. You know they had to be proud of that moment of Night/Day difference being used as the start and end to the game.
i done heard this song in 2 games already zoe1 (obviously) and mgs4 (in the ipod) even though i didn't like zoe1 but im not gonna lie the music was good especially this song (best song in the game actually) now i love zoe2 that one was great and im hoping kojima makes the third one alreay cus it's gonna kick ass i would actually prefer a zoe3 before mgs5 cus i've been craving some zoe (and no 360 fanboys mgs rising is a spin off it's not mgs5 when mgs5 comes out it'll be a ps3 or ps4 exclusive)
This song touches my heart when I ever hear it, as it reminds me of when Kojima is gonna bloody make ZOE 3. Either way, Zone Of The Enders shoud be the first game to be put in an official Gaming Hall Of Fame, it deserves every right to be remembered as one of the many Cult classic games of our generation. And this song says everthing that Zone Of The Enders is and always will be, Kojima's best game.

The following translation follows this format: Romanized Japanese followed by the English translation, separated by a slash. English lyrics occurring in the song will be in parentheses.
The funny thing is, I only bought this game because it came with the mgs 2 demo. Turned out to be one of my favorite games, with the second one being even better.
I'm happy that Kojima confirmed that a Zone Of The Enders 3 WILL be made no matter how long it takes.
I love the Z.O.E. series. I got both games, the Idaho movie and alll of the Zone Of The Enders Dolores I dvds. I remember all the epic Mech battles I had in the games. (my favorite weapon was Zero Shift.)
@Eyakunai Yeah, I know but I hate flame wars. A Japanese friend of mine and myself spent a long time translating this. A few of the expressions are fairly unique to Japanese thinking and require some skill to translate. Also, I thought I noticed that the posted lyrics tend to organize the Japanese into a more grammatically correct English - not the author's intention, IMO! The words need to hang like haiku, and they are almost as beautiful to read on a page as they are to listen to. IMO!!! IMO!
@thenewplayer Listen pal, the comment you're referring to got posted more than once because I was inexperienced at posting on Youtube - it was an accident! Secondly, I have all the confidence that I need, but thanks for your concern. In case you're somehow really not trying to be a jerk, I must say that I thought my opinion was clear, but it is still only an opinion. I worked hard with a Japanese friend of mine to translate it. I honestly think that my translation is better. Happy now?
@sonofdarth I apologize if my comment came off as trying to be an ass; that really wasn't my intention. I thought you posted 3 times because you sincerely believed that his translations were a little off, however you said "I concede" which, to me, means that you're backing off. You later said that that the reason you conceded was because you hate flame wars but proceeded to explain anyways what was wrong with the translation anyways, despite previously "conceding." It's full of contradictions
@sonofdarth You just said so yourself, that you believe that your translation is better. Even if it's a matter of opinion, you can have a constructive argument without having it devolve into a flame war. I'm really not trying to mock your experience on this matter either; you seriously seem to know your stuff
@thenewplayer Hey Fellah, I happen to KNOW for a fact that SonofDarth is a Master Authority on these matters. Without trying to be hostile, I must say that what you said publicly in this forum was not just mean and disrespectful, it was also HIGHLY uneducated. Also, by myself, it was VERY unappreciated. In the future, you might want to reconsider and rethink your public postings before doing so. Ya KINDA made yourself look like a slime, and left the door open for others to point it out too.
@impulsivej1 Please try to keep comments bias-free. Your comment is dripping with obvious worship for sonofdarth. Also I never mocked sonofdarth's experience or knowledge on this matter. His reply to Eyakunai showed knowledge that not any average translator has.
@thenewplayer Well, thank you for showing maturity. I just felt like I was being called out. If I seemed a little diffident before, it's because sometimes on the Internet people like to talk trash, and since I know how strongly I can feel about things, I work to temper my ( written ) opinions-particularly in a situation where there can be more than one opinion, i.e. difficult translations. Fans of this stuff are passionate, and I'm no exception. Perhaps I was too nice. MY TRANSLATION IS BETTER!!
@thenewplayer Also, impulsivej1 is my girl, and yes, she worships me. We should all be so lucky! Still, I apologize on her behalf. I'm going to give her a good spanking later. ; P
@thenewplayer Also, I would just like to say that this is one of the FINEST cultures on the face of the planet, and to truly understand it's sense of propriety is a beautiful skill. I respect your interest in it, but honing the skill is SO important. Please consider this as well before posting again. Enjoy yourself here.
Haha. I was watching my friend play MGS4 and when I saw him pick this up I instantly got excited....and then a part of me wanted to choke my friend when he asked what ZOE was......(It was one of my first PS2 games and this theme is one of my favorite VG themes of all time)
i really want a copy of both Z.O.E games...but you cant find them anywhere...beyond the bounds and flowing destiny are awesome i wish there were more Z.O.E songs for the Ipod in MGS4...
Yeah you can also find Beyond the bounds on the 2nd floor of the tank hangar if you go back after otacon opens the door in the missile storage area(just before the crying wolf boss fight).
En metal gear solid 4 se pilla en un capitulo, y me encanta, valla cancion, personalmente si un juego tiene una banda sonora espectacular le hace ganar puntos, y ZOE me lo tengo q pillar por q ademas de ser de KOJIMA, tiene esta pedazo de banda sonora
LMAO I never recognized this track before I heard it in Metal Gear Solid 4! Of course it was from ZOE! I have heard it everywhere! And while listening to it in MGS4 I was like:
"...What the hell? This is familiar to me..." I checked the title and youtubed it and TADAH! Now I remember! XD
hell yeah, whenever i read that Hideo Kojima is planning on a 3rd game, i look forward to it, it's a bit of a shame in a way that every1 pesters (as i call it) him to make more MGS games and nothing but really, don't get me wrong i LOVE MGS and i look forward to Rising also, but this series is awesome aswell
thats the big debate. Should Hideo Kojima be given a break from Metal Gear? It goes without saying that most of us love Metal Gear to death, but some want something new, which is the group I find myself being a part of.
Personally, with Peace Walker being on PSP (which I do not own) and no Rising information, I'm looking for ZOE 3!
And again, it's not that I'm anything less than obsessed with Metal Gear, but it is time for something new!
i agree 1000% in some way i think it's kinda cool that we don't have much info on Rising yet, makes it more of a surprise when we play it, also i think some people out there should give Raiden a chance, i noticed 95% of MGS "fans" love Snake out of all of them, he is cool yes, but i think Raiden Rules, also what do you think would be the plot for ZOE 3? lol hang on, Hideo Kojima should announce it at E3, so he could do a joke on the trailer "Z. O .E3" lol
With Rising, it's not that I do not care for it. Infact I am looking very foward to it, it's just that it was announced at E3 and that was about half a year (maybe more) and we know nothing about it. For ZOE 3, I'm not really sure because I never played the second game, but I plan on getting it soon (come on family, surprise me on Christmas)!
well i don't see why he would NEED more money then he already has, i mean his games are incredibly successful, even Stan Lee congratulated Mr Kojima for his anniversary of MGS and i bet you would have to be VERY rich or seriously popular to get Stan Lee's attention. plus you would need lots of money to make a game plus everything within (motion actors, voice actors, music, programming, etc) and Mr Kojima has made quite a lot of games.
Me too I don t get it, but hemade a huge poll in his blog to know who would buy ZOE3 and he said he would make zeo3 only if he's sure he will earn enough MONEY so you see he wants money
Maybe because (as i said before) every1 cares about MGS and not about Z.O.E anymore, maybe he want's to see if people are going to be interested in it instead of having him make a whole game that no 1 will look at. It's a shame im not rich or anything otherwise I'd help him make the game myself.
anyway he will make it cuz his poll was a success, but the statement about zoe being ignored is false zoe2 has sold tons of copies but not on its launch it got popular like a year after its released(kinda strange the game is fantastic took a year to some poeple to notice it? O_o) Well zoe won't be out before 2012 at least so we have time
yep, at least at the end of the day, WE GET A NEW Z.O.E :D but i bet it mite take longer to make it due to developing Peace Walker and Rising...not to mention this Z.O.E is going to be set on a console (or maybe he will go Multiplatform with this too) that is HD Capable (all the awesomeness of Z.O.E in HD *¬*) still looking forward to it :)
I don't know how well it sold. But companies only make money from new copies. And right now, america is really harsh on japanese games and there's sort of a zeitgeist that they aren't making as good games. This despite plenty of titles to say otherwise. It really is a harsh environment though.
When you make games of course you need to earn money cuz you have a life, but that's not the only reason. To make a good game money MUSTN'T take a huge place in your head, basically hideo is saying I won't do shit or put my name there if I'm not sure I can throw millions in my room later(that's why he made a poll).Since when do you make games ONLY when you're sure you will be rich after that? I would feel more secure if he wasn't a part of the project
you're being silly. Kojima isn't some rich man that fianances his own games. He works for someone. Both ZOE games didn't sell that well, especially the first one. And he still made a sequel. If he spends millions on a game that does bad, it'll weaken his position to make games period. He also has pressure from the company to be successful, and they've given him responsibilities. He's not just a game creator, he also supervises another team.
damn you kojima no zoe 3

I love how this soothing, poetic music is a beautiful centerpiece to the series, but is also creepy as all hell when reversed and transformed into The Origin. You know they had to be proud of that moment of Night/Day difference being used as the start and end to the game.

i done heard this song in 2 games already zoe1 (obviously) and mgs4 (in the ipod) even though i didn't like zoe1 but im not gonna lie the music was good especially this song (best song in the game actually) now i love zoe2 that one was great and im hoping kojima makes the third one alreay cus it's gonna kick ass i would actually prefer a zoe3 before mgs5 cus i've been craving some zoe (and no 360 fanboys mgs rising is a spin off it's not mgs5 when mgs5 comes out it'll be a ps3 or ps4 exclusive)

This song touches my heart when I ever hear it, as it reminds me of when Kojima is gonna bloody make ZOE 3. Either way, Zone Of The Enders shoud be the first game to be put in an official Gaming Hall Of Fame, it deserves every right to be remembered as one of the many Cult classic games of our generation. And this song says everthing that Zone Of The Enders is and always will be, Kojima's best game.

@Eyakunai Yeah, I know but I hate flame wars. A Japanese friend of mine and myself spent a long time translating this. A few of the expressions are fairly unique to Japanese thinking and require some skill to translate. Also, I thought I noticed that the posted lyrics tend to organize the Japanese into a more grammatically correct English - not the author's intention, IMO! The words need to hang like haiku, and they are almost as beautiful to read on a page as they are to listen to. IMO!!! IMO!

@thenewplayer Listen pal, the comment you're referring to got posted more than once because I was inexperienced at posting on Youtube - it was an accident! Secondly, I have all the confidence that I need, but thanks for your concern. In case you're somehow really not trying to be a jerk, I must say that I thought my opinion was clear, but it is still only an opinion. I worked hard with a Japanese friend of mine to translate it. I honestly think that my translation is better. Happy now?
sonofdarth 1 year ago
@sonofdarth I apologize if my comment came off as trying to be an ass; that really wasn't my intention. I thought you posted 3 times because you sincerely believed that his translations were a little off, however you said "I concede" which, to me, means that you're backing off. You later said that that the reason you conceded was because you hate flame wars but proceeded to explain anyways what was wrong with the translation anyways, despite previously "conceding." It's full of contradictions
thenewplayer 1 year ago
@sonofdarth You just said so yourself, that you believe that your translation is better. Even if it's a matter of opinion, you can have a constructive argument without having it devolve into a flame war. I'm really not trying to mock your experience on this matter either; you seriously seem to know your stuff
thenewplayer 1 year ago
@thenewplayer Hey Fellah, I happen to KNOW for a fact that SonofDarth is a Master Authority on these matters. Without trying to be hostile, I must say that what you said publicly in this forum was not just mean and disrespectful, it was also HIGHLY uneducated. Also, by myself, it was VERY unappreciated. In the future, you might want to reconsider and rethink your public postings before doing so. Ya KINDA made yourself look like a slime, and left the door open for others to point it out too.

@impulsivej1 Please try to keep comments bias-free. Your comment is dripping with obvious worship for sonofdarth. Also I never mocked sonofdarth's experience or knowledge on this matter. His reply to Eyakunai showed knowledge that not any average translator has.

@thenewplayer Well, thank you for showing maturity. I just felt like I was being called out. If I seemed a little diffident before, it's because sometimes on the Internet people like to talk trash, and since I know how strongly I can feel about things, I work to temper my ( written ) opinions-particularly in a situation where there can be more than one opinion, i.e. difficult translations. Fans of this stuff are passionate, and I'm no exception. Perhaps I was too nice. MY TRANSLATION IS BETTER!!

hell yeah, whenever i read that Hideo Kojima is planning on a 3rd game, i look forward to it, it's a bit of a shame in a way that every1 pesters (as i call it) him to make more MGS games and nothing but really, don't get me wrong i LOVE MGS and i look forward to Rising also, but this series is awesome aswell
innerguardianXIII 2 years ago
thats the big debate. Should Hideo Kojima be given a break from Metal Gear? It goes without saying that most of us love Metal Gear to death, but some want something new, which is the group I find myself being a part of.
Personally, with Peace Walker being on PSP (which I do not own) and no Rising information, I'm looking for ZOE 3!
And again, it's not that I'm anything less than obsessed with Metal Gear, but it is time for something new!
metalgearhelp 2 years ago 2
i agree 1000% in some way i think it's kinda cool that we don't have much info on Rising yet, makes it more of a surprise when we play it, also i think some people out there should give Raiden a chance, i noticed 95% of MGS "fans" love Snake out of all of them, he is cool yes, but i think Raiden Rules, also what do you think would be the plot for ZOE 3? lol hang on, Hideo Kojima should announce it at E3, so he could do a joke on the trailer "Z. O .E3" lol
innerguardianXIII 2 years ago
With Rising, it's not that I do not care for it. Infact I am looking very foward to it, it's just that it was announced at E3 and that was about half a year (maybe more) and we know nothing about it. For ZOE 3, I'm not really sure because I never played the second game, but I plan on getting it soon (come on family, surprise me on Christmas)!

hideo kojima is planning to do a 3rd one but h wants MONEY
thesniper321 2 years ago
well i don't see why he would NEED more money then he already has, i mean his games are incredibly successful, even Stan Lee congratulated Mr Kojima for his anniversary of MGS and i bet you would have to be VERY rich or seriously popular to get Stan Lee's attention. plus you would need lots of money to make a game plus everything within (motion actors, voice actors, music, programming, etc) and Mr Kojima has made quite a lot of games.
innerguardianXIII 2 years ago
Me too I don t get it, but hemade a huge poll in his blog to know who would buy ZOE3 and he said he would make zeo3 only if he's sure he will earn enough MONEY so you see he wants money
thesniper321 2 years ago
Maybe because (as i said before) every1 cares about MGS and not about Z.O.E anymore, maybe he want's to see if people are going to be interested in it instead of having him make a whole game that no 1 will look at. It's a shame im not rich or anything otherwise I'd help him make the game myself.
innerguardianXIII 2 years ago
anyway he will make it cuz his poll was a success, but the statement about zoe being ignored is false zoe2 has sold tons of copies but not on its launch it got popular like a year after its released(kinda strange the game is fantastic took a year to some poeple to notice it? O_o) Well zoe won't be out before 2012 at least so we have time
thesniper321 2 years ago
yep, at least at the end of the day, WE GET A NEW Z.O.E :D but i bet it mite take longer to make it due to developing Peace Walker and Rising...not to mention this Z.O.E is going to be set on a console (or maybe he will go Multiplatform with this too) that is HD Capable (all the awesomeness of Z.O.E in HD *¬*) still looking forward to it :)
innerguardianXIII 2 years ago
I don't know how well it sold. But companies only make money from new copies. And right now, america is really harsh on japanese games and there's sort of a zeitgeist that they aren't making as good games. This despite plenty of titles to say otherwise. It really is a harsh environment though.
GadGades 2 years ago
Making games is a business. He needs to make a profit. He doesn't necessarily WANT money. But he NEEDS money to make it and to justify making it.
Or do you expect ZOE3 to just be free? Because that's what your comments indicate.
DanVielwerth 2 years ago
@DanVielwerth
When you make games of course you need to earn money cuz you have a life, but that's not the only reason. To make a good game money MUSTN'T take a huge place in your head, basically hideo is saying I won't do shit or put my name there if I'm not sure I can throw millions in my room later(that's why he made a poll).Since when do you make games ONLY when you're sure you will be rich after that? I would feel more secure if he wasn't a part of the project
thesniper321 2 years ago
you're being silly. Kojima isn't some rich man that fianances his own games. He works for someone. Both ZOE games didn't sell that well, especially the first one. And he still made a sequel. If he spends millions on a game that does bad, it'll weaken his position to make games period. He also has pressure from the company to be successful, and they've given him responsibilities. He's not just a game creator, he also supervises another team.
