Erm, try looking for a FAQ from www.gamefaqs.com. They've got a few.
Yeah, the plot IS pretty thick isn't it? Ah well, I think I'll be
selling my Jap version over the next few weeks and use the $$$ to get a
US version. I have no regrets (honest) but I was surprised at the amount
of text/speech/cutscenes. My Hong Kong buddy who understands it all
tells me the plot is actually v. cool and not just cheese galore so I
guess you really need the english version. Oh well, at least Craig and I
have all the extra Premium stuff, right? I wear my t-shirt every day :-)

Like I said, good idea I think. Act quick - only 18 days till the US
release (then watch the value plummet!)
