By any chance did you pick up the Otkau bonus DVD that was a pre-order incentive for the Japanese GC version, there's a lot of neat stuff on it.

Whats on the GC DVD???

I bought the PS2 version with the bonus DVD, which has a series of interviews, some making of and a couple of special events.

I'm guesing it's the same DVD, since the GC version came out sooner I thought it was the only release to have the DVD with it.

Cool, otherwise I might have to buy the game over again. I held out on the PS2 version until I could get it with the bonus disc cheap.

Himiko's character in "Tengai 3: Namida" had nothing to do with the earlier "Tengai 3: Himiko" prank.

Namida's "real" Himiko was loosely based on the first aknowledged Japanese empress named Yamatai Pimiku (Himiko/Himiho). She ruled over Yamato during the late prehistoric times -- which in Japan lasted until the Third Century AD!

Those times are called "pre-historic" because all we know about them exclusively came from Chinese writings, since the Japanese didn't start to write before the Seventh Century (when they adopted the Chinese characters, though the two languages are mostly unrelated).

Anyhoo... I should wade back through my collection of Dengeki PC Engine magazines and scan the previews related to Namida when I get the time...

Does anyone know of any cool fansites dedicated to the Far East of Eden series? In English, preferably. I'm just looking for some storyline info and the general history of the series.

Thanks.

Me too. I'm afraid that there's not much out there.

OK Phoenix Down for this topic.

I turned on my Super Famicom to play Zero, and I got this screen:

I know this game has the ability to detect holidays, but I guess it can also pick up Cinco De Mayo eh?

I've only played no. IV and it is just awesome..

Oh.. and the scene where you design the face for your made up character to go inside that childs cursed book is just genious!! I'm pretty sure there was a template of PC Genjin and bomberman to name a few..

Children's Day (Kodomo no hi), actually.

Wow good stuff...now I really know the Tengai Makyo series is not for me.

Like I said, I wanna get into it like Final Fantasy and such, but the fact that the menus are in kanji can be scary for me.

Definitely it is. Far East Zero has a built in clock. There's a shrine where the setting is different depending on what season or holiday it is.

That's certainly a neat feature, I wasn't aware of it. And since this thread has been pheonix downed, I still haven't beat TMII, mainly because I haven't played it in a long time. I played about 12 hours or so and it was definitely a rad experience. I hope to finish it someday.

I recently beat Kabuki Den and TM2 (thanks to Black Tiger for the awesome guides!) and both games were absolutely amazing. KD took me 30 hours and TM2 50, though I tend to go through my RPGs very slowly and I imagine someone could beat the former in 25 hours and the latter in 40-45. As for which one is better, I vote for KD by the slimmest of margins. Gotta love the amusement park level and the singing bosses, and the last few hours were just insane--very memorable stuff.

Yeah, the bonus DVD in TG2 for GC is same as the PS2 one...rather unimpressive.

I picked up a copy of Ziria from neokellyzero. Does anyone know where i can find a download of the overworld theme? Ive been having trouble ripping the audio from this disk. Or wait a sec, is it even cdaudio to begin with?

I know this isnt TM2 related, but its still Tengai Makyou
