That'd be awesome but doubtful. That is A LOT of text. You can however get an English patched PC copy. I have it. Want me to send it your way?


no thanks, I'll never bother installing it. Haha.

Made some revisions to the list. Added PSN/EU game availability, made notes on English friendly games, added a few games, and removed some that I found out were getting localized (Way of the Samurai 4 and One Piece Musou).

I can't even tell you how much I love this thread.

ALSO -- let's discuss: I did (or tried to do) a ton of research on NMH Red Zone back when Hero's Paradise came out, and my understanding was Hero's Paradise was just the US title for Red Zone. I don't think the content is different between the two. Can you confirm one way or the other?

Did some looking into it and it seems that the games are exactly the same, so I might remove it. The only difference I can find is that the box art for Red Zone is way cooler than Heroes' Paradise... but I don't think that's enough of a reason to keep it listed.

I thought I read that one of the No More Heroes PS3 games was censored and one was like the US release, uncensored. Either way it's a terrible port..

Red Zone is the uncensored version with Move support. The original JPN release is censored just like the original JPN Wii game.

Yea. So I guess you could list the original Japanese release but not the Red Zone version? I don't know why anyone would want it but a list is a list.

:roll:

let's pretend somebody only owns a PS3. And they like Suda. That's why they'd want it. PS... I have no issues with my PS3 copy (that I bought from you haha). Were you playing it with the mic plugged in or something?

Sure I saw some graphical issues here and there, but you act like the game is unplayable. It's not at all.

The screen tears any time anything is moving. It is practically unplayable because the tearing is so distracting, but that is not what I was referring to. I meant who would want the original PS3 Japanese release that was censored when they could get the newer uncensored version with Move support.
