There was a brief mention of this in Famitsu last week, wasn't sure what the hell it was aside from a crap Compile Heart game.

Why so puzzling?  Is one version much worse?

one version is on the gajinbox with a considerably less perved up story and characters, but functionally they are identical.

its just that you'd think that the version Square made exclusively for their home market would be better recieved then their international version, as that was the whole point of the damn thing.

there are big differences like that between the two?  characters/story/etc.?

No, both look like shit. The soundtrack is the only redeeming quality.

What kind of game is it?  Like Fable?  I saw it on Gamestop's website and was really curious why more people weren't talking about it, considering that it's a Square game.

It's by the guys that did Drakenguard 1 & 2, which were a super fucked up terrrrrible playing Dynasty Warriors x Lair games.  This is like the spiritual sequel but now it's straight out action with rpg elements.

Some people really dig their games, though most positive impressions come from the storytelling and not from the actual gameplay.  I tried playing the first one but couldn't stand the gameplay.

I remember Drakengard.  That game was terrible.  Wasn't there some incestuous love going on between the protagonist and his sister?

To be fair, that is every Japanese game where the protagonist has a sister.

WTF JAPAN frequently involves "sticky" as an adjective.
