@SymbioteIII I was making a joke because they usually publish japanese games already made and, redub them. Oh and, dude I agree Cowboy Bebop english version is the best, bar none.
This game looks amazing, and you did a terrific job with this little movie! It's almost like a whole new Cowboy Bebop movie!! I have a PS3, I wish this would come here in that format. I wonder though, if it was released in North America, would we be able to get both soundtracks? I can't bear listening to it dubbed and it was awesome hearing those familiar, beloved voices again.
man i want to play this. this is just their revenge for ww2 we dropped a big bomb all those years ago and now they deny us americans some of their coolest stuff.
HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!! I love how this game looks. I never knew they had a Cowboy Bebop game for the ps2. i only knew about the ps1 they had one, Really cool. thanks for the vid :)
Yeah, a lot of people probably don't know about this great game. It was supposed to come to the U.S. but it was canceled for some reason. The PS1 version is okay, but this one is much better.
@sokodei Thanks for uploading this. Since I don't speak Japanese myself, I had to sit through the cutscenes not having a clue what they were saying and anxious to get back into the game. Thankfully it is more enjoyable than Cowboy Bebop for the PS One. I'm glad my friend was able to get a copy of both games for me regardless. Now I'm right towards the end of the PS2 version.
i usually don't like english dubbs in anime, but the english dub for this anime was perfect. And usually theres a lot of bad english dub animes out there.
for some reason i preferred the english voice actors. Spike really sounded like a lazy super hero and jett sounded like a tough guy. japanese sound oddly feminine
Wait, why's the game's main villian there at all? Did he cause the explosion? What for? And is it a coincidance there was a music player with that song on it there?
I honestly don't like this game. The plot is "power rangers" s**t. Graphics are bad. Animation is awkward. Music and characters are mindlessly taken from the original anime so it doesn't count. Better off watching the animated series and the movie (which rule!). I appreciate your fansub, though.
Even though i dont think much of keanu reeves as an actor, i actually think he may be good as spike spiegel. They do look sort of similar. Spike is basically devoid of any real emotions, similar to most of keanu's performances.
Plus keanu is apparently a big fan of the source material and understands the character, so it would be fair to assume he wouldnt be in it just for the money.
Better keanu than vince vaughn or one of the jonas bros though.
Am I the only one that found myself attempting to imagine the English cast speaking the words throughouth the entire fansub? Can't stand Bebop in Japanese. Bebop is amazing in English.
@SymbioteIII Funny you should mention this. During a panel at an anime convention, Mary Elizabeth Mcglynn mentioned that the entire game was recorded by the english cast TO COMPLETION, and she has all of the recordings on her computer at home..but can't release them due to legal issues.
To think that time and money was spent domesticating this entire game, only for it to never see release..
Random tidbit: I still have my preorder receipt from Gamestop back in the day...
@tkeely4777 Man, oh man. :( If only, if only. I'm sure they'd make a profit if they released the game. May as well release it late just, if not only to please me. Lol. Thanks for the interesting information!
@SymbioteIII maybe you should have caught it on fansub in 1998 and not on cartoon network in like 2008 at the age of 10, then. maybe you'd appreciate the toonami guy not being the voice of spike more.
@illuminatioracle Calm down, kiddo. I saw it in 2001 when it was released in English in America. Didn't even like Toonami after Moltar stopped hosting it, and only made the Spike connection with "TOM" within the past few years. Don't be so butthurt.
@maghu84 Whoa, whoa, whoa! Calm down, troll boy. You know English Bebop is superior. They even have a good selection of English songs in the OST. Quite clearly a heavily westernized anime, and if I recall correctly, even Watanabe himself has claimed he prefers the English version.
I just got this game on life for 65 bucks...so dose the japanese one let you see us words??? I also got magic swap for it too...what do you use to make your ps2 play japanese video games?
Because, even looking this good, the game is lame. I recently finished it. The graphics are damn fine, but the gameplay and flow of this point is really, really lame. I made a great effort when getting to the end of the game, because it is really hard to play it, and not due to the difficulty but to the lack of "catch". There is people who would say "It's a game for CB fans" well, I'm a really big fan of the Bebop crew and this game left me very dissapointed. Such an expensive waste...
I think it's wrong to edit the smoking out of things, like airbrushing the ciggarettes from Beatles covers. Apart from that, a good looking game, shame we never got it.
iiinteresting, so it's like a lost episode? Of course, it wasn't directed by Watanabe and most of the music is recycled, but it's still kind of cool to see. Thanks for the up.
@sokodei Actually, Super Nintendo Power Rangers games were developed for Bandai by Natsume Co., Ltd. But, if Natsume did, in some way, help produce Cowboy Bebop for PS2, then sound effects might either have been recycled or just sound similar.
WHY THE HELL WASN'T THIS RELEASED IN THE US?!! I demand it be done!..
