|

as seen on the amazing Insert Credit!!
http://www.insertcredit.com/archives/001548.html
It looks to be full of very-Japanese goodness, a'la Katamari and Tomarunner and stuff. How is it? What's the gameplay like? How's the translation?
Is it worth $30?
this review has certainly sold me on the Japanese version, but now I really need to know how good the translation is, and how much was lost in the process. |

Um... except whether it's true or not (poor PS3 performance) that's completely irrelevant because Chulip is a PS2 game. You know, the system with the largest installed userbase of any home console? The one that all the people who like RPGs and "quirky" "Japanese-y" games probably already own? |
I think you're simultaneously missing and reinforcing his point. :)
He was saying that "maybe since it's the end of the PS2's lifecycle, releasing a wacky PS2 game is extra risky. However, given the failure of the PS3, maybe the PS2 still has a lot of life left in it". |

| Why was this game delayed for four-ish years exactly? From what I've read the final English build has been finished since forever. Did Natsume just keep getting cold feet? |
From this interview, it sounds like Punchline kept dragging their feet on translating text that was part of textures, and then they got too busy doing Rule of Rose, so finally Natsume broke down and paid another company to do it. |

| Is this game still coming out? |
According to Gamestop, it's going to be exclusive to them and out on Valentine's Day with "bonus". And by "bonus" I mean "happy ending". And by "happy ending" I mean "blowjob".

| By the way dudes, this is my first King of Posters forum post in a while. Welcome me back with adoration and love. |
From the lofty peaks of Meg White's nipples, to the depths of James Brown's grave, you have travelled the land far and wide, and for that we salute you. |
