The Project-X source is definatly a USA/NTSC version.
I played it yesterday and no trace of JAP files in the archive.

Jan 23 2003, 08:24 PM
iam, you're right.
The ProjectX nfo also says "Origin ............: USA / NTSC"
So where exactely did the rumour that it's a JAP release came from?
And more important,..what exactely are the differences between the JAP and USA version (different speech? or maybe nudity

)?
I recall Panzer Dragoon Orta JAP and USA which has been verified don't differ at all (even to the byte size). Could this be the same with DOAXBV?

Now the race for the nude patch begins ...
DaGamePimp
Jan 23 2003, 10:03 PM
LOL - the nude patch ... there is actually some nudity in the intro [ although you cannot see any detail ] .
The game is just a hair over 4gig for those that wish to know . So if you intend to make a back-up ISO of your original then you must be using NTFS file system [ notice I said ISO

] .
Just a warning though , the gameplay is pretty bad so don't expect too much . If you just want to see the girls then have fun , was not enough to hold my interest for more than a few minutes [ the bikini's ] .

Are you running XP... just change your drives to NTFS file system and you'll be able to go over 4 gigs...
It's a simple command line to change it... just do a search how to do it... easy!!!

I downloaded and burnt to DVD and it works fine so far. Only thing is that some of the speech is in JAP. But there are english subtitles and some speech is in English as well.

Jan 23 2003, 10:52 PM
i heard that the japanese speech is unsubtitled (from gamespot or somethin)

DAMN, I burnt it to a DVD, and all I get is a blank screen, what could it be??? I tryed to just burn the ISO, then that didn't work, so I unpacked it, and GDF's it and still same thing.

All ya need to do is convert ya disk from FAT32 to NTFS partition. Then it will read files bigger than 4gigs!!! I beleive this can be done even with data on the disk with Partition Magic.

OMG This game SUCKS SO BAD !!!
I played yesterday night and all I can say is.... BAD !
2 buttons control (attack & receive).
Camera is aweful
Gameplay suck
Can't decide when you smash or not, the computer decides this for you.
Really, the game is far from good...
solidad
Jan 24 2003, 03:36 PM
I have to agree about the game sucking. Even good ole super dodgeball had more depth (damn that game deserves a good remake).
joshuaip
Feb 7 2003, 06:02 PM
the computer does not decide for you when to smash or tap the ball...the buttons are touch sensitive...if you want you can use more buttons ie one for soft hit one for hard...but I like the touch sensitive aspect...additionally this is the first volleyball game that I have played that you can on the fly place your hit...I see a gap and I take advantage...very fun.

I'll agree that it has more depth than meets the eye (haha, other things meet the eye first).
It's a fun game, that I'm positively addicted to - but I so wish that it was closer to a tournament format, and didnt have the "buying stuff for other girls" aspect, as it really makes for a somewhat contrived "gameplay" addition. What I wish is that we got Sega's GC exclusive (Beach Spikers), which is much more sport-based, rather than the "vacation simulator" that DOA-XBV tries to be. Beach Spikers format, plus DOA-XBV's graphics would be killer.
FWIW, keep playing - there is a really decent volleyball thrown into this title, once you get past the eye-candy (although, there aint nuthin wrong with the eye candy!!). I too didnt like the camera when I first started (I immediately started looking for an option to change the angle), but you really do get used to it.
