Thanks to everyone who posted here, I am about to hardmod my PS2 and wanna finally play some Japanese imports on the console, now I know what to aim for!

 

Ah! Drag-on Dragoon/Drakengard should probably get added to the list as the usual reaction to parts of the first game tends to weird people out.



.... It looks pretty normal here, the stuff that tends to freak people out are towards the later parts of the game. It IS more well-known for being somewhat weird but I think it ought to be put into here too.

 

I am really surprised that no one has mentioned Katamari Damacy by now.

Just want to say some of those games posted in OP look rad as hell and I'm sad they were never brought here to America :/

 

I agree with you man it's no fair! well thank god for imports

 

That's what led to their downfall actually. They translated the game and submitted it to Sony for approval and they turned it down. Guess they put too much money into it or something.

 

Dreammix TV World Fighters

 

i noticed Robot Alchemic Drive was mentioned but unlike other games in that post, it's English name was missing.
the game was indeed released outside of japan, going by the name Gigantic Drive.

 

RAD: Robot Alchemic Drive is the US name, Gigantic Drive is the japanese name .
