When I previewed Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage at E3, I noted that the game used Japanese voiceovers with English subtitles. I aimed to find out if Japanese voices would be an option in the North American release of the game, but it seems the answer is already with us. Japanophiles will be thrilled to note that the option will indeed be available!
The game will hit Europe and North America in Fall 2010. I personally can't wait, especially having played it and laughed over how absurd the entire game is. Beat 'em up fans are in for a real treat with this one, of that I can assure you!

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Also, Jim, you should have a hashtag that goes like this:
#ATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA!
Also: Already dead.
I think it is.
So here it is again.
ATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATAI want this game so hard.
How could the Japanese screw that up so badly?
the englisch voices of Star Ocean really messed the game up, so I'm really glad for this!!!
Yes, if the voice acting is shitty. I'd rather listen to a language where I can't tell if the voice acting is shitty, than listen to shitty voice acting.
