Right Side Driving?

[Mavet]

Damn Japanese making us play the game with the driver sitting on the right side!
How could I pursue the dream of the playable character with glasses as a GTA runover maniac?
lol

Anyways you think the english version will flip it to the left side?
XD

[Ringlets]

I dont think they would. Its less of a Japanese road rule than it is the game environment. We english have to drive on the other side of the road in GTA and other American games, but we get used to it. Changing the side for the different versions would be taking away the games setting and making it too reality based (Ignoring "...fantasy based on reality" >_<)

[Rade]

Why would they? America isn't the centre of the world >.> They don't switch them over in movies so why would they in games? We drive on the left/sit on the right in the UK and I don't see them switching it over in the PAL release of GTA.

[Clone of Shadows]

why does it matter, im from england any way so i dont see the problem of the driver sitting on the right. i dought they will change it any way, it seems kind of a point less hassle.

[Mavet]

lol theres that pic with the glasses guy driving on the right side.
It will just be funny when all the little 6 year old kids buying the game will think its broken cuz of the driving. well, not all of them :D

Anyways the game takes place an a Japanese-like city right?

[Rade]

It's supposed to be based on a certain district of Tokyo.

And I doubt many 6 year olds would be getting this game if it's as mature as is being indicated.

If they're that young, they'll probably just see it as fantasy rather than error, spouting "How absurd! A game in which you drive your auto-mo-bile on the right? Proposterous!".

All 6 year olds talk like that. Plus whats the age rating for the game? Thank to good old Fox News and Jack Thompson, parents are getting a little more cautious towards the murderer disguised as a disk that could be sneaking into their childs game console.

Believe it or not, alot of kids buy these games, it will especially be bought by more kids if the game will be an action rpg like KH.

Who cares, i mow everybody down who's on the road (or path so have it) in GTA. :aldo:
I dealt with this in San Andrea by crazy driving, and i shall deal with it the same way with GTA IV. :cathryn:

[Cathryn]

BUT THE A.I IN THE POLICE SHALL BE HIGHA.
I shall mow them down too. :aldo:

Believe it or not, this game isn't centered around Disney. It's dark, mature and has blood in it. Being an Action RPG doesn't make it more kid-friendly >.>

Kinda missed my point there, but im continuing a tangent beyond its limit. Point is, not many people will mind because you're either a casual game player who knows why games design things the way they do, or you're a kid who couldn't care less and just likes the idea of swords and mega death.

Youre replying for teh GilZ right? lol j/k
And you shall deal with it in FFVXIII!

Well believe it or not many kids these days grow up on most of the classic Disney characters that were featured on KH.
Plus a button mashing game is always adored by the wee-ones!

[Ringlets]

Believe it or not, this phrase is becoming over used in this thread and has destroyed its own ironic effect. All i can say is what ive said before, kids like action games but parents are getting over protective. Kids dont care about driving sides. If kids want button bashing, they can borrow my button-shaped cheese grater.

....And? You just made my own point lol. Kids like KH because it's Disney, so they're not just gonna automatically like Versus because it's an action RPG.

[Mavet]

Eh, flashy fast fighting scenes are always extra cool. > more fans to the game lol.

More cash in for Sqeenix.

Aaaaaaand im no longer lolling at devilish grin cathryn

Nope. I dont think they'd go to that much trouble. D:

[Misschoco]

oh lawd-many games are being labeled as satanic and the crack cocaine of the playground as one pikey put it i'v read my share of articles concerning violent games with erm well 'cautious' parents expressing their ever growing concern over the very damaging criminal effects these games have on our minds--they can all STFU and kiss the dirt accumulating under my converses :aldo: yah i went a lil off topic-anyways does the side of the steering wheel really matter im sure our ps3 controllers can handle it

[Cilvia]

it doesnt really matter, i dont think that scenes with car would be playable

[Ringlets]

Theres always time for Final Fantasy to have a new motorbike level.

[Reviarth]

heh never even thought of this meh I guess its cus its never been a issue for me.
Anyway yeah I don't think they would switch drivers side just to fit America's personal comforts.

[Terros]

I don't see any problem with the right-side driving. I doubt it'll have any major impact on the game play.

[Zen]

Well if you think about it Japanese cars are all like that unlike American cars. They are the total opposite and more technologinized then the US D:

[Patsie]

The Japanese also has the fastest broadband internet.

Exactly, who wants to obey road rules in a video game?

[Zen]

I don't think we should really care much about it. it's just a game. they can do what they want. Lol

[Reviarth]

man I gotta move to japan X3
lol in all seriousness I cant wait to test out the driving in this game when I imagine it I picture it like you get in the car and drive around like it was a Gran Turismo game or at least like GTA

[Zen]

Japan..... Man I hear it's hard to move there because of the lack of space.Have you all seen tokyo???

[Mavet]

Japan..... Man I hear it's hard to move there because of the lack of space.Have you all seen tokyo???

Nope, but Im gonna soon!

[Fantasygurl1227]

Yeeeeaaaah.... it doesn't matter at all if they are driving on the Right... seriously.... I think we are running out of things to talk about XD
I don't think we will be doing much driving if any in Versus XIII

[Reviarth]

Japan..... Man I hear it's hard to move there because of the lack of space.Have you all seen tokyo???

Yeah housing is pretty hard to get due to such a small island and alot of people, they need to do something before theres literally no space

[Zen]

Well my idea is to build a giant peer around Japan and then place houses on it. With alooooot of supports

[Whiplash]

Yeeeeaaaah.... it doesn't matter at all if they are driving on the Right... seriously.... I think we are running out of things to talk about XD


But how can that be when they've given us so much information? :cunning:
