sO i GOT The game today and am trying to beat Zeed on Hard mode (who is kicking my ass ^_^; ) I might switch to Normal seeing how there doesn’t seem to be a trophy for completing all stages on a specific difficulty.
One odd thing I can say about the game is that the Cutscenes run at 60 FPS- This is the first time any game I played on the PS3 did this. Mind you I’m not having any frame rate issues, the game runs at a smooth fps.
Damn your country to hell. Always getting shit early.
I remember someone from Oman got LoS early as well.
First review I could find… To be honest, I didn’t even need to read it. I’m picking this bish up tonight.

Fuck it. I got a gold necklace I can sell. I’m getting this game.
Yeah!
For anyone interested, this thread gives info on how to get the most out of the combat system-
Advanced Gameplay Discussion - Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage Message Board for PlayStation 3 - GameFAQs
Yes I know it’s GFAQs but they do have some threads that provide useful info.
Yep, and it takes a SRKer to start up the Advanced Gameplay Discussion thread. EmblemLord’s all over the unusual games.
Just finished playing it, honestly, I’m sticking to Basara.
Saw my friends playing that Basara game. Shit has the worst dialog I ever heard.
Time to fist
Needs more original music from the anime.
Boourns for no custom soundtracks on the PS3 version.
Anyone know if there’s a japanese language option? Raoh’s voice is terrible :X
Yeah, you can have Japanese VA.
Played the demo and it was bad. What a surprise.
HokutoShingeker- I think you’re a plant. Maybe the Ken segment of the demo is good (doubt it) but the Rei one was terrible. Say hello to the corporate heads at Koei for me for trying to cash in on the HNK fanbase with another monotonous title.
I like both Sengoku Basara and FotNS: Ken’s Rage, but I’m a whore for beat 'em ups. Rei is far more fun to play than Kenshiro, which is a sin.
Why do you think they killed Rei guys? He commited the sin of being more beloved then Kenshiro. Even the creators said that they loved Rei so much that they couldn’t allow him to simply implode from Raoh’s technique so he died off screen, but not before raping Juda like a real fuckin man.
Rei is far more fun then Kenshiro in the game. Seriously. I think Rei is the best and most fun character in the game. Which is win/win imo.
Rei will give you more “immediate” results, but Kenshiro is still very much a bad-ass and fun character to play with. Once you actually level him up enough to acquire his better attack strings, ougis/techniques and his various cancels (jump, dodge, combo resets, etc.), you’ll see that Ken is VERY good.
Hell, pretty much every character in this game is pretty damn broken. It makes even the likes of Gundam Musou 2’s Turn A’s nuke spam and Nu Gundam’s C6 look relatively tame in comparison. :lol:
Oh, thank goodness. You’ve convinced me to stick it out with Ken, then.
How about comparing it with triple Burning Gundam C4?
Dialog in Basara 3 was fine and fit the tone of the series.
Ken is good. I think he’s second overall. But Rei imo edges him out thanks to wind run cancelling.
Man, I’m at the final Raoh fight, and I cannot keep getting beat! I know how to get him down to the first section of his life meter going basically untouched, but when the place starts going uneven and columns are falling, I keep getting hit! I must have fought him like 20 times at this point. Frustrating, but this game captures the mood and feel of the manga/anime perfectly.
