I say eese because that's how you say it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ys

It was a thing/real word before Ys was a video game.


So, all of you mispronouncing it are retards! BWAHAHHAHAHH

I'm good on Ease, but I still say Gray-dius instead of Grah-dius.

Go home Mzo, you're drunk.

Actually, I do that too. I was at a store a while back that had a copy of Graidus 3 SNES that I wanted. So I go to tell the owner what game I wanted and I had a brief thought: Was it supposed to be Graydius or Grahdius? I have no idea, and if I pronounce it wrong he's going to make fun of me when I leave! "Can you believe that guy? He said GRAYDIUS! HAHAHAHA!"

I call the game Gaydius because I hate that game.

most people around me say "graydius" or "gradius" as in, graduation or something.

there's none of this grahhhhhdius orgasm sound crap.

Being able to see a game name in Japanese helps a lot with pronunciation.  Assuming you can read the Japanese of course.

I have to watch this with my daughter. My wife may watch it for Christian Slater. I'm going to watch it for any NON-SMB3 footage. True story.
