Einhander rocked. You're missing out. A smart man should buy a Asian/japanese 360. Not only are they about the same price but all Asian games are about $40 USD each. Whats better is lazy publishers. My Asian copy of Ghost recon is actualy the USA game with a small sticker on it saying NTSC-J Compatible & $20 USD cheaper. So when I get bored of it I can always trade it in at EBGames. Also Asia pretty much has all 360 games already with almost all in english (unless they were not released in the states still).
I read once that Tobal #1 was supposed to have textures but they just couldnt get them working properly so they decide F it at the last minute. Godamn those jerks all to hell for not bringing 2 over. I honestly think its the only game ive ever really wanted a stateside release. On that note I dont get much exposure to good japanese releases.
Yep. But Tobal 1 looks incredible, better than most 32bit era fighting games. Tobal 2 made it perfect. I would add games like Racing Lagoon, Gunners Heaven, Panzer Bandit, Advan Racing,... There are lots of good games most people never heard about, because they were only released in Japan.
I've heard nothing but good things about Tobal #2, but I just never got around to importing it. Matter of fact, I know there Enix did a ton more games than RPGs (Dragon Warrior, mainly) but thats all that seems to have been released here stateside. Are there any decent Enix games I should grab if I see them?
Heh, almost forgot Bushido Blade in the non rpg mix. I used to love that game, used to play like 50 matches in a row against a mate when it first came out. Never played the sequel but the first was a superb game, especially when a match went on for ages. Enix wise, try Suzuki Bakuhatsu Pop'n tanks Omiai Commando Kaikan Phase Rakugaki Showtime Astronoka Itadaki Street Bust a groove There must be more, there are a couple more statergy games from enix that are worth a mention. But I don't think many of Enix non-rpg rival their superb rpgs. For the record the Japanese version of Star Ocean 2 comes with a Astronoka demo, so you can play the demo and SO2 with decent voices, everyone wins!
