I have beaten this game in Japanese a while back, but replaying it in English is just way more enjoyable then I expected. I recommend people who haven't played it to pick it up, and if you haven't played any of the other Parasite Eve games...then I don't know what's wrong with you.
>>4 Im with you on that one, right now im on disk 2 so im half way through it, and then I need to buy PE2 and then play this one and THEN read the book that takes place before the fist game. Gawd this will be a pain...
The game is incredible. It remains one of the two games that have made me cry in the end. The graphics are exelent, the story is amazing, the ending is one that I don't think that anyone saw coming and theirs unlockables to keep you busy.
I got both PE 1 and PE 2 from the PSN store (in English of course). I have them both in my PSP (you can play them on your PS3 too if you didn't know that already). I still need PE 2 to finish but its a bit difficult o_o As for The 3rd Birthday, this game made me into the Parasite Eve series(back in October or November of 2010). It made me sad at the end (I wont say why). The music is beautiful, the gameplay is interesting, the cutscenes are well made, and the CGI cutscenes are so amazing! My favorite CGI cutscene is the one at the Sacrifice Concert! I love it to death!
