XSEED is a pretty awesome company. They respond to e-mails and translate niche titles with a high quality standard in both translation and packaging/extras. But of course, everyone knows this.

Yeah, if only stuff like that wouldn't happen. Ew... Ignition. They need to disappear.

Given Ys 7 LE size, does anyone here know if its better using VG+ or CDUniverse to ship to Europe? Same price on both so I wonder if chances it gets caught at customs are equal(ly high :lol).

I was familiar with Ys 3 when I was growing up and saw my brother playing it on Genesis... other than that, i'm a virgin to it all.
Read up the history of the series on Hardcore Gamer101 and now am crazy excited for these PSP releases.
CAN'T WAIT!

For those eagerly awaiting word on Brandish: Dark Revenant on the PSP, here's Tom Lipschultz from XSEED on the PSN blog:
"As for Brandish: The Dark Revenant, we ARE fans of that game here, and we ARE looking into it for a possible English release. No guarantees on that front, but you know youve got a die-hard Falcom fan here pushing for it, so well definitely try our best to bring you guys as many Falcom games as we possibly can. Cross your fingers!"
As for Zwei!! PSP (which I personally really want), the news is not as good:

Anime games and games with cutesy graphics are turn-offs for retailers, according to an Xseed employee(s?). Responding to a request for Zwei, another Falcom title, a staffer at Xseed wrote Zwei is a well-made charming game, but the retailers arent too crazy about the cutesy graphics, which makes our job a little more difficult.

I'll agree with this, I got the PC version in a holiday bundle from Falcom and it was the only game in the set I didn't really enjoy.Aeana said:

On the other hand, they could push for a PSN-only release of Zwei, if little boys have trouble with games that don't have big, muscular men on the cover.
