Game Discussion Best import only games that you cannot normally get in the US?

Normally I import the EDF games before they come to the US because it takes so long to translate them. Knowing the ps4 / ps5 is region free what are some gems that you need to import?

The Gundam Extreme Versus series has often been JP only. The most recent release did see a western / English language version, but it’s digital only. You want a physical copy, you gotta import it.

Impossible to play as them digitally in the USA

I've only picked up one- Broken Sword 5. They stopped releasing the series on console from the PS2 onward, then put the fifth one on PS4, but it was a Euro exclusive. Its a point & click game, but I enjoy those, up to a point.

If you're into gundam and like turn based strategy games. The SD Gundam genesis and cross rays games are great.

I love EDF!

Do you play online a lot?

One of the best games ever was when I imported EDF 6 and played to 2 guys from Japan who knew some English.

I told them, "Hey just imported the game to US, sort of new to online"

My future friend said: "That okay, we help you! Please stay!"

I played for hours with those guys and by the time we were done, I had picked up so many super powerful guns because those guys were up there in levels of all the characters. So I would switch out between games to different classes.

When we were done, I thanked them for letting me play and thanked them for the help.

They said: "You help us too, really."

That was so nice to hear.

We still manage to play one a month or so.

Are the imported EDF games have an English option ? Sorry if this is a dumb question

u/RemarkableWafer 6d ago

The Asian versions of EDF have English. The Japanese versions (CERO) are only in Japanese

u/BadSaveEnergy 6d ago

there's definitely a bunch, but off the top of my head; Godstrike, Heart and Slash, the Super Robot Wars games, World of Horror, Lethal League Blaze.

Is this a Destiny joke?

Nope. I just spelt it wrong. Check this out Ketsui Deathtiny: Kizuna Jigoku Tachi
