Pandora's Tower, NTSC-U major bug, questions...

Symphony of the Cock?

Shadow of the Colossus i think he means

indeed.

Ahh, that makes more sense! Because I haven't read much about the game, but I've heard SOTN fans should play it.

Ah, OK. Because I read in a few places that even going to 13 and then 11 or 12 from the entrance will cause the bug too.

Do you even have to backtrack to 11 or 12 after reaching 13? I mean, does beating the game require backtracking, or can that just be avoided all together?

If it's not that big of a deal, then yeah, I'll just get the NTSC-U version.

You don't have to backtrack to beat the game. You need to backtrack if you want to 100% complete it.

The bug can occur even if you don't backtrack. It did in my game. It bugged entering
tower 11 or 12 as I was progressing trough those towers.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why this happens. I've done 100% twice, no bug. Launch day NTSC Wii, NTSC copy of the game on original disc, not ripped to the hdd.

How is Pandora's Tower like Shadows of the Colossus? Considering SotC is my favourite game of the last generation, I should probably check this out.

Good, that's what I wanna hear. I mean, XSEED said they haven't experienced the bug in any quality insurance or play testing before releasing the game, and I take them at their word with that. Hopefully the Towers 11 and 12 reentry bug only effects a small amount of people. And I've read people saying they've experienced the bug on a launch Wii, and others who say they haven't with a launch Wii. So hopefully if I play through the game I will just never experience it.

In addition to that though, I have read a few people saying they've had the game lock up (and had to hard power off) in other random areas of the game.
