Holy crap, that sucks, Akaimichi. I am soooo sorry for you :( . This is coming from one Turbo brother to another.

akamichi, just remember when someone says the Legendary Axe two is a hard game - you can say I could have beat the game with my eyes closed!


again, sorry about the loss, but its a story that you can tell again and again!

Never heard of it.  But then again, all PCE titles sound the same to me since they don't use English like they damn well should!

The game also goes by: Far East of Eden II.

He should have said that!  I hope he can read Japanese because otherwise it won't be any fun to play since I think that one is an RPG.

I played some (well, four hours) P*nis Write Ass Attourney when I was sick yesterday. It was actually quite fun. Huh. Whaddaya know. Didn't expect it to be.

PS: Everybody ignored my Dawn of Mana praise earlier. Shame on you. Shame on you all.

Now, play it.

Figuring out the menus and following Black_Tiger's walkthrough for it makes it a blast for us non-Japanese speakers. Since Ninja Spirit already knows the menus, it should be a breeze for him  8) . Seriously though, from the 10 hours I've played of it, it's awesome!

I've played 11 hours of it and I can confidently say things take a turn for the worst around the 10 hour 15 minute mark.

Samurai Shodown 4 I jsut spent some time with this evening.

Never saw much of this in the Arcades, plenty of 1 and 2.

I have to share my gaming on this today because I was finishing off an opponent, and during my last strike, the game does the slow-motion thing, all of a sudden blood sprayed from my opponent's chest and all over my character, hahaha, painted in blood winning the match.

I'm used to the blood fountain in this series, but this spray that paints part of my character with blood was special... hahaha.

I didn't replicate it throughout the rest of my playing time. I need to lookup what that button combination was....

I do not know way too much Japanese, but I do take playing import RPG's from a different approach, and I like other languages period. That's one way I learn and get real time experience past the "how-to books" is to just jump in it and not think so much about not getting the story and the fun being ruined. I may not learn on a conversational level, but I do familiarize myself with the two basic character tables (but the big ones with the fancy brushstrokes are still out of my league, I still have to throw coins in the dark if I have to deal with those)

While I've been playing *FAR EAST OF EDEN: UNFORTUNATELY KABUKI'S STORY* and putting those vids out on YouTube, I picked up a whole lot of new words especially from scenes with text and voice done at once and write them in a notebook.

I also use a program called "JWPCE" which also has a built in dictonary, and that really helps out in shopping for items and weapons.

Neither did I, oddly enough.

I almost sat down for a quick game of Chip Can Kick on the PC-FX but then I decided I had better go to TCBY instead for an after dinner treat.
