Put the eboot in the game folder under "NPJG90019" without the quotation marks. It's in Japanese, but you have to be an idiot to not be able to play the game.

This is one of those games where the first second you play it you know you're playing something special and fucking awesome. I love the way it challenges your perspective on everything. GOTY

I don't have a PSP, so Echochrome is as close as I'll get.

i dunno what to make of this - it's basically a poor mans Crush.

It's not bad, but Crush is just infinitely better at doing what it's trying to do ... IMO of course.


well, okay , it's not Crush per se - but .... anyways....

and to reiterate
if you are impressed by this and you haven't played Crush - then you should.
You will shit yourself.


The best part about Crush was... that you always thought you were cheating/breaking the game slightly to get through the levels, but that was what you were really supposed to do, to win. Playing and trying to get through with the least number of steps though... talk about a pain in the arse!

game is pretty damn cool.  too bad the camera speed is slowwwwwwwwwwwww as fuck.  i'll probably pick this up once available -- nice little diversion.

music is nice and soothing.  good stuff to play when i'm taking care of the baby.   :lol

Yup. Sony is running ads for Echochrome over in Japan. I've seen them during the morning news broadcasts, but they don't really mention the fact that it's on the PS3, just PSP.

OFFICIAL EVILBORE MEET UP IN TOKYO 2009 CONFIRMED

(well, me you Groo Cormacaroni Shonuff....)

We had an absolutely wonderful time in Japan back in 2006, and we'd love to go back now, but she's getting her MBA at night (along with working full time), and can't take any time off from school. We're going back to Tokyo for about 10 days as soon as she's done.

So I don't baffle anyone with my comments about watching Japanese TV, I'm using KeyHoleTV, it's acutally helped a lot with strengthening my knowledge of the language.
