I always loved this boxart. I never played the game though

and that wasn't made by Amano or Nomura

its good to see each artist have their own style. not one copying the other.

I also loved this boxart, and never got to play the game, SE poor pissed over PSP owners with this port. Such a great game, such a poor port.

It looks great, but I'm sad about the fact, that the German USK will destory the beautiful box art with their exaggerated logo :(

It's hardly a poor port. It would have been better if they fixed the slowdown, but other than that the port is great

wait why is this a poor port? i actually liked it more than the original , except of course some of the lines been not so vulgar.

but the cutscenes the voice acting and everything else is topnotch!

Just because of the dreaded slowdown. I finished the original twice back in the day, I was so pissed off at the slowdown of the PSP port! Shame, because there was a lot of extra content I never got to try...

I've finished both games, and the slowdown, while noticeable, isn't terribly annoying. I mentioned it in my review, after all, it's nothing that stops your play or anything like that. I prefer to value much more the now understandable script and the cutscenes, they make the port better than the original, being able to now understand the story is more important than a minor slowdown when you cast spells

Nice boxart. Is there a release date for this game for NA?

During an interview, someone from Sega I think, said they are trying there best to release it in the U.S close to the Japanese release date.

Kinda like what Square Enix is doing with Final Fantasy XIII.
