if you haven't gotten around to forming opinions about these games yet, I did a sort of dual review of them. Check it out to see just how much they screwed it up.

Such heartening reviews, I feel refreshed and alive!

Did you ever find out what the deal is with XSGames? Are they just a couple of guys operating out of a PO Box somewhere? The method and reasoning they used to publish these games still puzzles me. I can't recall seeing as willfully bad a localization as the MLF games since the SNES was in it's heyday.

The games are better left as imports, where the developers make decent money on them, and you don’t lose your dignity in the exchange.
I agree entirely. If somebody's going to butcher a game, and these sound like two of the worst cases of butchery in recent memory, it's better if the just aren't released at all.

I have not figured it out, no. But the latter is my assumption. In the manual, there are only two staffers credited, then like six folks for 'QC'. Obviously to make sure the quality was as low as possible??
I'll send an email to jack of all games today, and see what they say.

Good...As much as these shooters intrest me, I don't want to support trash localizations like this. It's just unacceptable intoday's market...
BTW, good reviews that will hopefully warn others about the games. That is if they don't run away from the awful box art.

I have the import Gunbird and say they didn't cut anything that wasn't essential to the game. The story isn't nearly as good as the one in GB2 (where Capcom cut the voices for the US release btw -_-) and the fan art gallery is a neat novelty, but since most of the art looks like it was drawn by elementry school kids its not a huge loss.
What they did to Shikigami no Shiro was pretty unforgivable though. Removal of TATE is bad enough, but the horrible, horrible dubbing... *shudder*
