@ PurpleMaster, thankyou for clarification Perhaps they could go with Japanese in ZE3 too. I don't mind except the pace of Japanese is faster than English, so the text would move very slowly at times.
I'm hoping for news around Summer 2013 too, but I think that would mean an early 2014 release in Japan, followed by either late 2014 or early 2015 over here IF we go by the ordinary turnaround (2 years).
I'm hoping ZE3 will come here, it wouldnt make sense to not release it in the UK, IMO. RSG will have seen how many bought it.

I bought the US version for the PS Vita, since I really didn't want to wait for it to come in Europe!
But now that I'm living in the UK (and I had to leave the PS Vita back at home, since it's my sister's) I think I'll buy the EU 3DS version. I miss having VLR in my hands and I really wanted to do a second playthrough with the Japanese dub!
This way, one more copy sold in Europe, I've done my part!

I can't wait for more news but one thing bothers me:
I do want it to be
I do want it to be
much darker than VLR but just because Akane said the facility was 'full of traps' it doesnt mean there will be (imo), there was nothing that actually hurt Junpei and Co. in 999 for example
Sigma lost his arms and his eye. BOTH OF HIS ARMS!!! Of course there will be traps.
I hope so, too, but my hopes aren't too high
since it seems like the creator/director/writer (i forgot what he is ) was prevented from making VLR as dark as 999. But the horror atmosphere is what made me fall in love with 999.

999 definitely had the more ominous feeling, but the moment you see
Alice dead against that wall
Then the human aspect comes into it, and it's quite frankly scary since you don't know whom death could come from.
I think both dubs are great and you can't go wrong.

The English is absolutely outstanding. I give a good dub credit when I see one. only two characters I'm not crazy about, everyone else was awesome.

I heard that too but
Hopefully Uchikoshi can make ZE3 a much darker game, and he will put his foot down, darker than VLR anyway, in some ways the ending had the effect of making 999 feel even worse because it means all the "bad" endings actually happened somewhere.
There are 2 passwords for each safe. One is for a gold file, the other is for the escape key. You need to get the Escape password to get the escape key and some other stuff.
Yep, it's quite a bit longer indeed. Completing 999 took me ~16 hours while VLR took me around 34.
Don't worry, you will get the true ending last no matter what you do.
You won't even be able to progress to the true ending without having seen every other ending first, so you don't need to worry about that.
Edit: Sorry, redundant xD
Alright that's good.

Ok, finished the game... took 46 hours,even when I cheated a bit, and didn't get all gold files. Overall the game was brilliant, definitely felt fresh and something I haven't played before. I think I was expecting something like Alter Ego after reading a short description of the game, but it ended being completely different. Sometimes the game explained things too much, and was kind of slow, but it's easy to forgive when so many other things worked great. Will definitely pick up the sequel, and maybe even the original 999...

Also regarding the 'darkness' of ZE3:
Hopefully it will be darker as a given with more of a horror feel, Sigma loses his ARMS and one eye so there better be traps

That made me chuckle. lol I miss this game, played through first time on the Vita, consdering replaying on 3DS as I have both copies. Might check out the touch screen functions and possibly play with Japanese language this time.

Just ordered my 3DS copy from Amazon UK!
Yeah, Batman, I'll do exactly this, so I'll finally be able to enjoy the Jap dub as well!

Okay, I just ordered 999... I already know the big reveals, I think, but not the details, so I can probably still enjoy the game.

Mh, yeah, there are some details you don't know yet!
Most of the time the awe will be SPOILERS FOR VLR
As for GuardianE...
No, they didn't! Don't save in the PEC room, just don't do it.
It seems like there are other places where the corruption might take place. I've seen two people getting it by saving right after the
I'm actually thinking about running some tests as soon as I finish my 3DS copy.
Obviously, my tests are amateurish and will end as soon as I encounter the bug!

That did make me laugh
I wanted to make the experience last I guess so trying to seek out more VN's now!
There is a non-spoiler chart available to view which paths to take in order to get the endings.
I remember the game crashing early in the PEC for me. Instead of researching about the game's corruption, I decided to save the game literally every minute while in the room in case it crashed again. I must have saved well over a half a hundred times in that room. It wasn't until I completed the game that I found out saving in the PEC could potentially result in the deletion of your save file.
I felt so lucky. *___*

VLR exists only thanks to US sales, so........
How did it do in the US compared to everywhere else?

Well, we do know that when the trailer for VLR came out on Youtube, most of the comments were in English. I believe that it sells a bit better over here than over in Japan, but I'm not sure about exact numbers.

The Japanese have no time for our puny YouTube! They have NicoNico Douga to be watching!
