I'm pretty sure I managed to pick out "evade" in the effect and while I don't know the actual Japanese name and Chinese doesn't map exactly to kanji I think it's something more like "predict" or "foresee."

Did the SEA Gundam games had the original music? It might be a China thing...

Anyone care to hop on Terada/Bandai's twitter and ask for confirmation since the Taipei show wasn't too clear?

Honestly, the BGMs are something I consider to be nearly as important as the visuals in SRW.

Music is a key component in creating memorable moments in both life and entertainment and SRW thrives on having the player take command and carry out those moments. One can argue that that's assuming the player is familiar with the source material but, considering the niche nature of this, I'm comfortable assuming so.

Would you say the Axis Drop would feel exactly the same without Beyond the Time playing in the background? What about GGG doing Hell & Heaven without the theme? Hell, what about Basara without his songs?

The BGMs matter quite a bit, I think.

I'd probably be less concerned if all the generic themes in the video didn't sound like poo poo.

ImpAtom

Again:

Previous SRW games have had generic theme songs on previews for a variety of reasons, including having with-theme songs version of the video played in a separate place. (It's because of streaming licensing issues most likely.) It is a bit early to instantly jump to assume this means they're replacing all the songs especially when they didn't in GGen Gen or whatnot.

They may not be the best arrangements ever, but to me the removal of "Meikyoshisui" makes a very big difference.

I remember they did something like that in one of the ACE games and it was horrifying. Nobody probably remembers that though cause they were too busy muting the TV after the fifth forced playing of some Macross Frontier music.

I almost always listen to podcasts when gaming so legit music isn't that big a concern for me. I could understand people wanting the legit music though. (I always turn subtitles on in games as well. So I can read whatever is being babbled on about.)

And in SRW's case only like a third of the music I am familiar with even as a robot dork anyhow so even the HEY ITS THING I REMEMBER deal only helps so much. poo poo, when some stuff has the back half theme change I get cranky because it ain't familiar anymore.

Someone in the old thread said you could install an app called Media Player and that will let you play mp3s/videos off your USB driver. Some Kamen Rider game was also doing it at the time.

I never took the time to figure it out in MD, I'll look into it later. The function was there I thought.

I never did understand the colors not matching.

Some of the later shows keep it and some "fix" it, and then the show before the current one went and introduced three trainee pilots that acted like subpilots and provided specific powerups. That show also had the idea if different Voltron forms by having diffent lions form the core which was neat.

Throw in all the shows, crisis on infinate Voltrons.

Akira Kogane, and the other pilots were Takashi Shirogane (who died), Isamu Kurogane, Tsuyoshi Seido, Hiroshi Suzushi and Princess Farla (who replaced Shirogane as a pilot). And the only reason I know all this is because I looked it up.

I can actually halfway remember the names of the original Golion pilots, because of how it ties into the messed up colors.

Shirogane piloted the Blue Lion,
Kurogane piloted the Red Lion, and
Kogane (which is gold) piloted the Black Lion.

Yeah, you can have different accounts on the same PS4, you just have to log into the right one when you want to play that account's games. So be sure not to delete the PS4 account once you have the game.

You don't have to switch accounts to play them, just buy them. I've played all my digital imports on my main US account. I assume you have to keep the owning account around, but I'm not sure how that works.

So if OGS ever gets a fourth Space Noah carrier it'd probably be Kogane? I didn't know the names kept going after the 3 we have.
