So I take it you didn't like your import copy? I've imported it (for just $45), I'm glad I able to play it now, before all of the big RPG games come out in the first quarter of 2010.

I agree with you to get Aksys' 360 version (over the PSN version) because I'm sure at the end of 2010, you can get the retail game for great price (in the bargain bin). I'm not sure if the PSN version will get a price cut in 2010 (unless they are able to get those Collector editions to retail, if they actually do that).

Akysys re-edited and re-checked the translations, so it *has* to be better than Ghostlight's version.

8-10GB sounds pretty small for an original Retail Blu-Ray game actually.

But I'm getting the 360 version anyway. Retail packaging ftw!!!

And no one should think about importing the EU Ghostlight version. Horrible editing, and the script is just lolz in places... Aksys cleaned up and t/l checked the script and added the new content, so you'd be much better off getting this version.

Well, I'm enjoying my imported version of Generations of War ( I can finally put some time into this after finishing Demon's souls). For me and the typos don't really bother me, but I was a bit disappointed with the battle system in general. (I still prefer Disgaea 3 battle system over this).

I wonder how much will the PSN version cost? I don't think it would be fair to charge the same amount as the Xbox 360 version.

now that you mention it, ninja gaiden had less gore as well, but is weird that sony is being all “wishi washy” about this, when its mostly considered as a console for “more mature people”

Despite what you may think about it, SCEJ does have policies regarding it. A few games have been rejected or censored to be put on a Sony Console. One recent example is rumored to be the NMH port. Only the 360 is getting the uncensored version.

Well, im sorry D:, i never read after i write, and i dont like to write that much either T_T. That is why im best with mathematics...

Well the GC pictures take a good amount of space, also it must be big because there is lots of places to go and events, i also though, as you, that it should be small since is just sprites, but it seems we were wrong. Maybe HQ sprites are bigger?

And he just said Ok because he didnt undestand -.-'.

Umm but is no big deal -.-, these days (mostly thanks to internet) comapnies are more open minded and so are the minds of people, like before in persona 1 they even changed the skin of one character and etc, just so it wont go too much of the japan culture or whatnot. So i dont think the “ecchi” factor is much of a problem in these days

What the heck? Mine's top speed ever was 250 kb/s. Consider yourself lucky >_>

Sony is being ridiculous for forcing this game download only. The fact is that HDD sizes for this generation of systems were never meant to hold full sized retail titles. Even if you have a 250 GB system, with everything else out there to download, 10 gigs is a hell of a lot of space. I can see the point that at least they let you swap the HDD for a bigger one unlike Microsoft, but the fact is you bought the system to play games on and it is absurd that they would want a person to go out and buy a bigger HDD to play a game that could have easily been purchased on a disc. It is even more insulting that this burden is on people with smaller HDDs that likely payed double for the system already.

For the record I have a 60 gig unit (55 gig really) and with about 19 gigs left on the system, there is no way I am giving up over half of my available room for one game. All that space is taken up by actual PSN games. I have no game installs or videos on the system at all. Both Sony and Microsoft just dropped the ball on storage this generation. If you want to start forcing people to buy their games via direct download, no system should ship without at least a 1 terabyte HDD standard. The idea that consumers can just delete and re download is a joke as well, as this is a major inconvenience that you are shoving on the people that are buying your products.

The basic fact is that neither company ever expected to sell anything on their console as a downloadable title beyond emulated classic games and arcade ports of Mortal Kombat II. The idea of selling a title this large was most likely never even a thought. To shove this down consumer's throats mid generation is just cruel.
