Default Do you guys like weird??

I’m talking Okami, Vib, Parappa, Rez... you know the sort.

Games that make you think this is just bizarre?


The reason why I’m asking is because I’m just looking at my Japanese game collection, wishing that the shops here in the UK would take them as part exchange (lol)... and something dawned on me, that the truly weird games don’t get released over here or in the States, but why?


I remember playing Mojib Ribbon, and just not being able to understand why we don’t have this simple but brilliant game? or Space Fisherman? ...who cares if its different? they didn’t sell in their millions in Japan, so why not take the risk and sell abroad.

So with the Playstation store, the PS1 games available for your psp.. I bet they’re not many weird games to download? Wouldn’t it be better for Sony to release games that not everyone picked up the first time around, because at the time they were full priced non-budget games for the PS1?
Now i reckon you would take the risk and buy something that wasn’t your cup of tea, and if it was only $5.. Why not?

Also, with fLoW being there to download for the PS3, it will be interesting how popular that is, because that might be a bench mark that Sony decide on how and what to flood the market with in the future.


Apparently the British are more like the Japanese when it comes to tastes in games, and not like you guys from the States

but I don’t know if i believe that. I think we all like these games, but Sony need to see that.

I basically don’t want a repeat of the PS1 and PS2 JP games in the past, where we don’t get them. IF this multi regional stuff is even remotely true, then for the first time ever we should be getting more weird games on the PS3 than ever before.. I hope so.
