I wouldn't really call that a missing feature exactly. Its more of an extra if you ask me. Anyway, SE generally does a pretty good job with their English VO's so its not really anything to be worried about unless you're one of those people who simply cannot stand English VO's whether good or bad.

Well if starting on the Xbox 360 version earlier than originally expected results in us gamers outside of Japan getting the game sooner then I'm perfectly okay with Square Enix workingon both versions simultaneously.
[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"][QUOTE="Keep-the-Faith"]But you have to go back to this area so you change to the previous disk. OOPS now you made a mistake and don't really need to go there but where you were so you change the disk back. See that can get annoying.So?
you change a disk.
id take that over a mandatory install anyday.

Not if you have a HDD which majority of 360 owners have. Before you even start the game start the disk installation, grab a soda, sit back for maybe 12 minutes and your set to play.
Even with installation you still have to put the discs in. Otherwise people could just rent games from Blockbuster intall the game then take it back and you got yourself a $5 some dollar game.[QUOTE="CAlNlAC"]Cuddlesofwar actually brings up a pretty good point. One of the benefits of p2p based online play which can really help older games is that so long as people are still playing it you can join their room. In like a game like say PDZ for example, a launch title on the 360. You can still find and join a game online pretty easy because its p2p and still a small number of players play it online. Now if on the other hand PDZ was using dedicated servers MS would have likely shut them down cause theres just not enough people playing to justify the expense of running the servers. So basically you're out of luck if that happens. Still though I would like to see more games using dedicated servers on XBL.dthach614
do me a favor... halo 2 was a very popular p2p online game for it time... go try to find a match and tell me how long it took.
go test out all the old p2p games
Umm it doesn't take long at all.[QUOTE="speedsix"]PS3 owners lose out big time in terms of console online;
Xbox Live = Best online implementation
Halo 3 = Best adverserial multiplayer
L4D = Best co-operative multiplayer
Not to mention exclusive DLC.

Xbox live doesn't have dedicated servers.
Why don't lemmming never talk about the multiplayer aspect of XBL?
they always talk about the shopping entice dashboard, the messaging invite, the communication. but never the lack of dedicated servers. lets talk about the bullspit of p2p connections.
Umm thats not entirely true. Some games on XBL do in fact use dedicated servers like L4D for example and a few others. Its up to the developers to decide if they want to use dedicated severs or not. Also you make it sound like every online game over PSN uses dedicated servers which is also not true. It is true however that PS3 has more games than XBL using them though.
