yeah, i heard about that~ i've heard about half of people saying it'll only be in Japan, and another half saying it may be released everywhere..

but if it isn't released in America, i doubt it'll be released in Europe~

yep.

there's twelve boards (I find six useless)

you can play as guests, their gambits may be tweaked; (equipment: NO, allies: definitely not)

same with espers, and you can use their ultimate atack ASAP;

the really PAINFUL trial mode; (painful, yeah. i haven't passed level 53, and there's 100 stages!)

there's the NG+ strong - everyone stars out level 90; (yes, it redifenes FUN)

last but not the least, there's the NG+ weak - aka 122333 mode. (no exp whatsoever)

as for the japan part. either you export it, or go get it illegally. it wont be released outside japan. if they would, Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix Plus would have been in EUROPE by now!

PS. if anyone has questions on the game, you can ask me. I own the game. and haven't pwned Trial mode. I WILL pwn the final bosses (the five judges: ALL at the SAME TIME) of TM someday! I tell you! I WILL!

^ Unfortunately, no. Yet I wish there was. I'll rip the game apart (I have two copies of it) to see if something is new.

Although I did read somewhere that a new scene is in there, but I haven't seen anything new. (It's either that person was playing KHIIFM+, or was blind) I'm speculating that the new scene is awarded when someone finishes Trial mode on the Weak Game setting, but that's highly impossible. Even with a cheat code.

^that depends. If you can understand Japanese, sure. (I only understand Katanaka, but it's managable.) Or if you know what everyone says, does, what does the weapons do, what does this symbol mean, who is the guy, why the hell are we (the party) here, and what you need to do next... the only thing you'll need is a lot of luck in the trial version. (that's how I survived FFX-2 International... Five times.)

PS. I reviewed this game once. It even showed up at a magazine. Anyhow, It's better than the original game. Far, far better than the original game. Unless you play RPGs for the sake of the story, like me. If you're not an obsessed fan of FFXII, the international is nothing. (Me? Like hell I'm obsessed!)

^Let's get this simple.

Voice Acting is in English

Subtitles (If you actually use them) are in Japanese

ALL TEXT is in Japanese

Other than Voice acting, nothinjg else in English

There are no plans of releasing the game in the United States

There.

tsk~ i don't see the point of getting it if you don't know Japanese. you won't be able to read any commands, hints side-quests. makes no sense why they'd have two languages going at the same time~

stupid SE. i don't like them now.

I think probably because English fits the themes of the game better. Feudal kingdoms and such. Very 1500's Europe.

And wtf, why call it INTERNATIONAL if no one plans to make it INTERnational? It should just be national. There's no inter here. >/

^International... Good point.

@LMC: Try memorizing the NA version entirely. That should help... a lot.

The only new things in Kanji at the LBs are the SOS thingys, and the rest are in Katanaka (the new weapons, etc), which is quite easy to study. And there are no new enemies at Trial Mode, too. (Except Drace and Zargabaath... Duh, but that's easy to figure out)
