Forums - Sony - Folklore... why did this game fail in Japan...

No one expected it to do well b/c of the lack of advertising.

If IGN rates this game below an 8.5 I'm going to be shocked, the graphics are beautiful and the gameplay is fresh and fun.

 Well what do ya know, IGN gave the game a 9.0. Considering the fact that IGN was one of the only US reviewers to give the game a good score, you made a damn good prediction. :P



Quick question to anyone who knows (AKA owns/rented) the game:

Does the optional HD install vastly reduce load times? With just the Blu-Ray, they seemed irritatingly noticable, at least in town, in the world of the dead, it seemed fine.

At least following a comedians own jokes makes his death easier.

 there are load times but they arent even bad.. maybe 10 seconds or so. The only loading that bugs me just like IGN is the switching of folks.

But the graphic is not good enough.

sorry but the graphics isnt the only amazing thing in this game.

idk about folklore, but in ninja gaiden it vastly improved them!

 does 20 seconds reduce to 10 count as vastly? if so then yes
