Demo’s not in the store yet. Maybe tomorrow like it says on the home page of PS3’s internet browser right now. There’s a demo for Vanquish though. Go Platinum Games!
Demo maybe in the JP store?
Musashi did noty disappoint in the anime…I was really REALLY hoping he’d make the cut in SB3.
It’s been in the JP store…the game is already out in Japan.
Demo’s in the store now. Late update, at least for us East Coasters. Will play tomorrow…
Yea I just dl’ed and installed. Too bad I gotta be at work in 30 minutes. The PSN Home music for it even sounds badass. Shit is gonna be calling for me all day…
Demo was fun =D
Hope they fix the lip syncing by the time the game is out. Voices were OK but the Japanese voices tend to have a more hot blooded feel for the characters.
Still don’t get why they couldn’t just LEAVE the JP voices in the game but oh well.
they removed them? shitty.
Old news but yeah, one of the reasons I bought the JP ver. actually lol
seriously, i probably wouldn’t even play some shit with a dub as that ruined the 2nd onimusha for me.
Well here you go then Buy Sengoku Basara 3 (PS3?) - Play-Asia.com
It says “asia version” but it’s exactly the same as the JP release with an added Chinese instruction booklet. Also cheaper for some reason.
Ah, 4 more hours…
And yea, it’s because JP VAs seem to project more passion and feeling through their voices, like the shit is happening for real. American VAs…not so much. Still no reason to completely remove JP voice option. Capcom makes questionable decisions anyway though so eh whatever.
Also, I could’ve easily been copped Asian or Jap version. Played all Basara games, wouldn’t have been foreign to me, even though the games are friendly enough as is. But we gotta support the U.S. sales. This goes for everyone that hasn’t imported yet.
Even if VA for Lion(VF) does Mushashi voice. But let’s hope to God not…
The dubbing wasn’t that bad IMO.
However part of the reason why I think the game is Eng. dub is because during combat enemies and your character and his allies will make comments and if the dub was JP and you had to read them in text boxes they may distract from the gameplay.
On the OTHER hand however; Hokuto Musou’s Eng. release is Japanese dubbed and has text boxes with what the characters say. Naruto Shippuden: Ninja Storm 2 has an option for Eng. or Japanese dub (heck the DEMO has this option too) and the text boxes don’t seem to distract.
Non the less this shouldn’t be a reason to not get the Eng. ver.; buying only the JP ver. does NOT help it’s localized/ outside of Japan sales.
I actually have no problem with the engish dubs so far…except for Kenshin, Shingen, and Mitsunari.
Yukimura and Hanbei dubs are too good.
I just don’t have the funds right now to import…but I was relly hoping they would’ve added japanese dubs.
everybody who just copped it needs to get nobunaga unlocked asap, dude is so grimey. or just beat it 4 times with saika real quick and hook up her specialty wep for homing missiles from regular shots. hilarious.
Haven’t had a problem with the voices. Everyone sounds just right or pretty good equivalents to the Japanese voices. Still wonder what they are going to do with Date’s “Engrish” though, but I’m a fan of Reuben Langdon so it probably won’t bother me too much.
Looking forward to picking up the game and the Blu-Ray for the first season of the anime in October. :tup:
Played Ieyasu’s stage in the demo last night. Very impressed to see that there’s now a point to keeping your troops and generals alive, and fighting in areas of the stage that you control. Very cool. To the best of my knowledge you could just ignore the rest of your army in the previous games and mosh everything yourself without any experience or gameplay penalties…unless I missed something obvious 
Wair…there’s a point to keeping the troops and generals alive? I’mma need to play that demo again when I get home.
generals do all sorts of shit and each have their own bonus pretty much. you need to try to unlock hanzo asap so you can see where the dude with the basket on his head pops up (purple spawn marking on the map) - he gives a perma stat bonus.
Bad ass. Do the general buffs require you to be within range of them to have them work?
Do the generals give bonuses in the previous games, or just 3?
Yeah, once you take over a section of the map (defeat the area guardian that explodes) you get damage and defense boosts when you fight in that section, and your health also regenerates. Enemies will try to take back the section, though, so you need to pay attention to the map and defend it if it’s under attack.
