I know this was covered in an interview a while back, but I'd like to discuss this.

Anyone else pissed that the ps3 version can have dual audio, but more than likely won't because the 360 can't?

Dual audio would make my purchase of the game much more likely ffs.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Yeah, this is pretty lame.

 

[Makoeyes987]

Wow.

Dick move, Square. Dick move.

Fuck the X-Box owners. If they can't handle it, why does their hardware inadequacy fuck up the party for the PS3 owners.

Fucking shame. I was really hoping for a dual audio Final Fantasy, so bad.

 

[Masamune]

I will reserve judgement until I hear some dub samples.

Sure as hell wasn't a problem with the last game of the series.

 

[Max Payne]

I got no problem with there being a 360 version too, I just don't want to lose features in the name of equality.

Also, didn't Lost Odyssey have dual audio? Gah.

 

[Max Payne]

I will reserve judgement until I hear some dub samples.

Sure as hell wasn't a problem with the last game of the series.

FFXII was awesome, but I don't see the same production team working on any aspect of FFXIII. It might be as good but it doesn't seem likely given that these people didn't give much of a shit about the dub for AC.

Anyway, still, I'd rather have the option than not, even with a good dub.

It adds more reason to play through the game again too tbh.

 

[Frostwave]

This is ghey. I'll live and everything, but that's full of shite on their part.

 

[Channy]

I'm not bothered by it tbh. If you want Jap dubs, go to Japan.

 

[Max Payne]

I'm not bothered by it tbh. If you want Jap dubs, go to Japan.

I'm going to say you're stoopid and call it a day.

 

[Channy]

I refute your comment and still insist you go to Japan.

 

[Max Payne]

I insist you flush your head 5 times in a row to clear out all the crazy!

 

[Channy]

I decline your insistence, and will go have dinner instead.

p.s g2japan

 

[Makoeyes987]

Forgive us, for wanting to be able to appreciate Japanese vocal quality and talent while also being able to understand our game with English localization.

I mean, I could understand the sacrifice on a PS2, or PSP game, but fucking hell, the PS3 CAN DO THIS and we could have it if it weren't for this stupid equality crap.

 

[Channy]

You're forgiven.

I mean, I can understand for all the fanboiz out there, but it's not a huge necessity.

 

[Max Payne]

Pretty sure Lost Odyssey had dual audio, and I'm certain Blue Dragon does, and I own that game. Both of those are Xbox exclusives.

This sounds like bullshit to me now that I think about it.

You're forgiven.

I mean, I can understand for all the fanboiz out there, but it's not a huge necessity.

It is when SE has had a shoddy localization record as of late.

 

[Channy]

Such as?

 

[Max Payne]

Such as?

The entire compilation.

And I'd much rather have the option, than lose it, when it's most certainly viable, and most fans would rather have it than not.

 

[Channy]

A lot of fans would like to have it, but we haven't heard any of the English dub actors, so we don't know if they'll be a colossal mistake yet.

 

[Max Payne]

Whether or not they do, I'd still like to have the option.

I'd play through the game in both english and japanese just for the hell of it.

 

[Channy]

Yeah, but apparently SE wont allow that.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Exactly why people are pissed, .

 

[Channy]

Then....Get over it?

 

[Max Payne]

Then....Get over it?

Or you know, you could stfu and go somewhere else if you don't like people expressing their disappointment.

Annnnnd it's not completely decided yet. They did seem to imply that if fans wanted it they might go the extra mile.

But really, I don't see why they couldn't have dual audio unless they're worried about multiple discs, which is silly.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Then....Get over it?

no u

Last Remnant has English and Japanese voice tracks as well.
