A most of the time Japanese>English game translator and writer and all the time dating sim wonk.



A perfectly avoidable sickness.

It took me seven months of hunting for a copy of this game with the obi at what I felt was an agreeable price given its sheer ubiquity in this country and it's all because when I set my mind on replaying it finally, I couldn't content myself with any old regular copy on sale for 500 yen at the local Book Off or whatever.

Give me my dumb paper sleeve or give me death, that's what I say.


(Genuinely looking forward to playing this in Japanese for the first time and basking in Akio Otsuka's husky voice, though. MGS1 has my favorite look out of the 3D games by far and always felt like the series lost something once the codec calls went polygonal.)
