Domasaurus | 4 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) Hey Everyone, I was recently combing through a thread where someone showed off a copy of a Monkey Island Remastered collection (physical copy) for the 360/PS3 as a UK import. I had no idea a physical version of the remasters even existed... this kind of sparked my interest in what other games I may have missed on the PS3 that came out in a physical form or just didn't come out in NA. I've done some basic googling and Youtubeing and only really came across games I already knew existed... or am not interested in (Mostly Japanese games i can't play or read). I don't speak or read Japanese, and importing games I cannot understand doesn't appeal to me. I'm looking for games we didn't get here on the platform that came out over seas that are: 1) Playable in English, or require little to no Japanese to enjoy. 2) Decent Games; Games worth playing or having from a collector standpoint. 3) Physical games made from Digital only games we received but weren't released in physical form here. 4) Upgraded versions of games we did get with added content and are still in English let me know what you guys got... I am seriously having difficulty finding any, maybe this one game was just a blind spot for me. Edited March 22, 2020 by Domasaurus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PII | 1,884 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I've always been sore we didn't get "Wipeout HD" here in NA. It's PAL Only. It made use of the same tracks in Wipeout Pure and Wipeout Pulse which we did receive on the PSP. One of the best series in my opinion, and the most intense racing experience out there.

LastCat | 246 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Dengeki Bunku Fighting Climax Ignition is a good fighter, menus are in Japanese but playing it requires no knowledge of the language and has more characters. We only got the vanilla Dengeki Bunko here in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,691 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Siren: Blood Curse (PS3) is supposed to be pretty good. Digital only release in NA, but received a physical release in EU. I have a copy squirreled away somewhere, but, as with much of my massive collection, I have never played it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glazball | 168 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 The Chinese version of Aquanaut's Holiday has an English option (but the Japanese version does not). It's a peaceful game - maybe even boring for some - and it's not a must-play title by any means. However from a "collector standpoint" I believe it is or was rather hard to find and valuable.

Gloves | 11,776 Administrator · Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Caladrius Blaze is a really fun shoot-em-up that was only released in Asia. Menus are in English (mostly) so it's easy to navigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trifecta | 235 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Try Short Peace: Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Day. It has a PAL release. On one side of the disc, there are 4 anime shorts, the other side has an actually pretty good game.

Inzoreno | 102 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Okami HD came out digitally here, but in Japan it got a physical edition and includes English subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun game, though I got stuck and haven't beaten it yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumez | 2,947 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 It's also available in a non-limited edition for at least the Switch, that can be easily bought lots of places right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
