It's been localized already as the Asian Hong Kong version has English Audio / Text. I imagine it will be here soon. It's definitely targeting the Western audience by the looks.

From what I've heard, this game is better than WKC. Much better than people originally predicted.

How are HK localisations usually? English or Engrish?

Also, why didn't you buy it, man? aren't you in Japan?

 



For God's sake when will this come stateside?



Found a video of what is apparently the tutorial: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/304340.html

I'm really digging the sense of isolation, of being alone in a world surrounded by hostiles. Very cool. And the combat system is actually better than I thought it'd be, if a bit slow paced.

On the negative side of things: the canned animations feel very dated, especially after playing Killzone 2. Every zombie has the exact same death animation, and a couple of times an enemy would jerk closer to the player to be in range for a flashy special move about to happen. Also, why are there no shadows?

Not a lot happens in the video, though. Not sure if this is because the game itself is very repetitive, or because it's the tutorial. Could go either way, I guess. Although, the boss fight at the end was very cool (even though the player obviously wasn't a high enough level to stand a chance against it).

The game looks decent. Not amazing - but pretty good. Probably worth a go. I'll be sure to pick it up, once it's dropped in price a bit.

From what I've heard it's the full deal.  I was only in Japan for 5 months for Study-Abroad.  Unfortunately, that ended.  I really want to go back in the next couple years.  It's a very good culture, IMO.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

I thought the HK version only had English text?  If it's audio as well, I may import.  :O



I love that "YOU DIED" screenshot. Reminds me of how websites looked in 1995.

Looking really nice and King's Fieldian. Go, From Software, go!



I want this game bad.

From what I hear, this version includes full English voice-overs.  It's sold out at Play Asia.  They apparently under-estimated the demand for this title.

Well, there are too many games I need to buy right now, so I'll probably skip this one ...
