i bought the game last weekend, and its okay. yeah the voice acting is awful... i think that dude wilth blode curly hair might have downs syndrome.... but its a pretty good game play rip off of phantom brave. i mean if youre going to rape anyones basic battle system, might as well be a game with a pretty decent one...
I've heard that the Japanese hate the Japanese audio because of poor acting... which leas me to believe that the only reason anyone thinks subbed sounds better is because they can't pick up on the subtle nuances of what constitutes good and bad voice acting in a language they do not speak natively.
Yeah, that explains perfectly why Japanese voice actors have such a large fanbase among Japanese nerds and is a much larger industry. There are very few cases where the development teams say they prefer the English audio (usually these did not have the popular VAs) but those are rare, if they even bother to listen to the English version at all. Not saying that all English dubs are bad, just, in most cases, the JP ones fit better. Listening to a foreign language might have some appeal, as u said.
I bought this game because it had growlanser characters in it. But unlike the great games that the growlanser series is this game is a steeming pile of #$#@
all man I started playing today and I forgot to switch it. The voice acting is like a parrot on reefer for the girls and dislexic alcoholic dude voices
you should its pretty good. but watch out there is a lot of talking in the beginning so if you dont want to read it all just push triangle and it will fast foward the conversation.
Can we get some actual FUCKING game play video? I don't mean all the "pretty and shiny" powers either. I want to actually see them playing the game, or is this game all about stupid shiny overpowered... powers?
Seriously" Gun Grave is in this? Wow, Run out and get this game now people, This is the reason why Backwards compatibility is a good thing in the 80gb PS3 so you can still play games like these until they make their way up to the next gen! and if you dont have a 80 or 60gb PS3 then dig the PS2 out but go get this thing and show developers we want them!
Wooow... imagine what they could do if they MUGENized this sort of game, 10 or so characters represented per company and on a solid SPRG system... wow, its enough to make me drool (since it'd probably be done in japan, voices and story wouldn't suck either!"
So the US is finally getting one of the cross over SRPG's. This is great. This has some of my favorite characters in it. This game is automatically awesome for having ROCKET BILLY REDCADILLAC!
Dam it all! Now I want an other game! It is a crossover of Shadow Hearts,Growlanser,Blazing Souls,Gakuen Toshi Vara Noir,Spectral Force,Spectral Souls,Hametsu no Mars,Gungrave,and Samurai Police/Shinsengumi Gunrouden. I think that is all. AAAHHH, I want that game!
i must say in all of my pervyness but keeping it a joke too.....i may come close to literally nutting myself when i recieve my copy in the mail.....very close indeed.....
::Sighs:: For anyone who isn't keeping up with the release date for this game, they pushed it back to April 24th, but at least you now know that they're working on this game and that they're making an attempt to bring it out.
The official release date is March 18th supposedely. I guess they pushed it back from its super imposed february release, but people have there doubts about it coming out at all.
lol i knew this for awhile... but it keeps moving. first time i saw it was 28th, then someone else told me the 27th. then I took another look and it was the 26th. its awkward.
It's a shame that some games that hold real promise here never get released in the states because of stupid reasons like it didn't do good in japan so they have no reason to ship it here. Many fan service games are released here and many enjoy them, it doesn't seem fair to make some games know and totally exclude others. Now i gotta import games like Namco x Capcom and Nartimatte Accel 2 and it's not as easy for some people as it is for others. Does anyone else share my pain?
i fell your pain. Times two! Cause i live in europe, and here its even worse! You only get it if the japanese liked it, and we only get it if you also liked it! RPG's are the games that most often go MIA so... i wont get my hopes up :(
the Gungrave character are the only awesome thing in this game
