I was gonna suggest that too. The only difference between the two version, that I know of, is graphical. The PS1 version looks a little better.

Wasn't there a PAL version for Saturn?

I have heard many times that the Saturn version looks and runs far better than the PS1 version. It's said to be a sloppy port. But without a translation, I'll never try it.

Yeah, I heard the PlayStation port was rather sloppy - had fans of the original kinda pissed, if I remember correctly. I could run an emulator, sure, but I figured if there was translated mod in existence I might as well throw that into my Saturn, if possible. S'more fun that way.

Ah, OK. I wasn't sure, I thought I might have heard that some where.

So, what, since it's on the PS1 no one wants to translate the Saturn version? If the Saturn version is that much better... It's not even like you'd have to actual translate the Japanese into English, since there's the PS1 version. I wish I knew programming.

i think theyt should do it too except i dont have a mod chip and im not sure my saturn is the right version and then there's the fact that i never did moding on any system. i have done emulation and stuff but never moding. i tried to learn how to rom hack well that didnt go far. and well i dont know japanese so that goes. so im just content with knowing how to emulate and applying patches.

I don't think there is a translation, probably no one feels up to it since you can get the psx version. I suppose there might be a translation guide someplace though.

I guess a guide is the way to go. Jeez, I hate Bernie Stolar.
