Hell yeah.

It's cool that this game will be released in English, though. Would've been nice to see Princess Crown as well.

I like the more gothic look(compared to PC). One more game I'm interested in for my PSP.  :)

Eh!? Odin Sphere is for the PS2 not PSP.

Unless your thinking about importing PC for the PSP.

Still the deal is that PS2 is on it's way out becuse of the PS3.

So SCEA is supose to be relax on what games for the PS2 are released in the U.S.

For wich i hope it means more 2D release states side.

Oh well. If like most PS2 games it doesn't support progressive scan then I probably won't give it a try unless I find it cheap someday.

Hopefully Princess Crown PSP will make it over eventually.

Most of the good releases in the last year or so have all supported progressive scan.  The only ones I can think of that didn't were some of those shitty Nis and Atlus RPGs.

I have Princess Crown for the Saturn (got it for free from a friend).  I turned it on and all I did was stand there and talk in japanese to a bunch of people forever and ever, so I turned it off.  Is there any actual gameplay for someone who doesn't like to sift through text?

Well, the battle system is pretty boring in my opinion. It's like a fighting game.

Yeah you have to get out of that castle then the brawling starts.  Its a pretty cool game, but it does get a little boring if you don't know any japanese since there's a lot of talking.  There's a walkthrough up though at gamefaqs that covers 4 of the 5 quests (I believe, all but the last really short one).  I liked the battle system, it turns into a simple Street Fighter style thing when you encounter an enemy but you can still use items and armor and stuff, the animation is phenomenal though so every new enemy type or boss you encounter is a "holy shit" moment.

That's one reason why i liked PC so much for the Saturn.

Still i all ways find "ppl" that are put off by pc since they feel playing, with a walk through isn't enough.

It didn't bother me i was able to beat it becuse of that.

I will attempt to get out of the castle.  Hopefully it takes less than 5 hours or reading text to do so.
