Forums - Sony - Question to those who have used the Japanese PSN

So I was reading a review of a game from the Japanese PSN (Xenogears specifically) and all of the screenshots they showed were actually in English.  Is it likely that the site messed up and used some old screenshots from Xenogears or is it possible that the version on the JPSN actually has an English option. 


Also if it is possible that the game has an english option, how in the heck could I put money on a Japanese Account that would work?

edit: here's the review http://www.rpgfan.com/reviews/xenogears-psn/index.html

To add money to a japan psn you would buy a japanese psn card from an import game store, ebay, etc

You can also use a prepaid credit card that you can pick up at the grocery store, but that may only apply to the Hong Kong store.  The key reason you are able to use this is because it doesn't have an address tied to it, which is the probably you will normally run into when trying to register a credit card on a foreign store.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
