Free Ys 6 (PC) for a limited time! English patch available too.

[Enl]

I already have this on PC but since I know there's Ys fans on here that probably don't here is a chance to get it. Copy and pasted from GAF:

EDIT: Correct direct link. Thanks Joe:

Groupon is once again offering an Ys game for free. Last time it was Ys Origin, this time it is Ys 6. Thanks once again to Aveyn Knight for the heads-up.

Alternately, direct download: http://a1763.g.akamai.net/f/1763/965...pon/YS6-GP.EXE

There IS an English patch for this one. http://www.figlidigaucci.eu/index.php?pid=19




I'll just copy/paste Aveyn Knight's instructions for getting Ys Origin, because it's the same for this:

Download

1. Press the button to the top right of this page. It's the one embedded in the banner. [Image]

2. Select any location, enter your e-mail address in the appropriate field and hit the red button a bit below. You may want to use an alterative e-mail address to your usual one, as Groupon may send you promotional e-mails.

3. Log-in to your e-mail and search for a new e-mail from Groupon. Note that it may be in your spam e-mail folder. Follow the first URL to return to Groupon's site.

4. Click the subtly-located link towards the middle (it looks like normal text, but I think it's underlined), which directs you to Sourcenext's site. [Image]

5. Hit the big download button [Image]

Note that if you close the window or go back to the Groupon page, you may lose your link. If so, you can try from the beginnng with a different e-mail.


Word of warning to everyone who is downloading this: you will need to use AppLocale to run the EXE and the game itself. That can be downloaded here. Windows 7 users will need to make sure to explicitly run the AppLocale installer as administrator.

Once installed, open AppLocale and choose the EXE you want to run, and then on the next part, select 日本語 (bottom option).

I already owned this but I didn't make the mistake I did with not getting the free Ys Origins even though I owned it already.  What mistake?  The physical versions I have of both games are the original releases that only support through XP.  These are the new re-releases that support Vista/Win7.

I still need to play Ys VI some day, but now I can!

Wish I could play the PSP version but not PSN release.

I installed this just to test it out and jumped in boss rush

this starts playing during a fight with Geis from Ys 7
