Oh man you're doing a dang good job mates! If the japanese version comes to steam I'M BUYING IT RIGHT AWAY!

And you see Tidus, there are people who want to play the games on foreign languages. For example me. I'm gonna buy all of the foreign version, starting with the japanese one.


Question: Are the games dubbed or only the menus and/or game structure are in foreign language?

Most videogames only cater to the English market. As far as I know, all of the 'Speak' options are dubbed in each country's version, with the exception of the non-language specific noises like growling and chanting.

To prove it, here's the japanese intro FMV;

It sounds like the Sligs have really high pitched voices in the Japanese games for some reason :) You can hear them at 0:10 in this video; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsAyd...eature=related

Gamefaqs doesn't have a Japanese listing for Abe '99 (neither does Wikipedia), so my guess is that they never made the PC port (I also think that Abe '99 might be quite rare, since it's expensive on the site I saw today [$177]).

I lol'd at the Slig voices :DDDD! Is there a japanese version of Abe's Exoddus?

Please people help the adminz so I can buy the games on steam ^^!

There is a Japanese version of Abe's Exoddus, but it seems to be PlayStation exclusive.

I'd like to point out that from now on no off topic will be tolerated in this thread.

We'd like to stay focused on the finding of those versions of the game.
