Deep Fear, is it worth getting?

[nate]

I remember from a long time ago that it sort of plays like resident evil "Including the very cheesy voice acting", and for about two weeks now i have been looking around a few places to see if there were any copies around, i did find a copy but the guy who wanted to sell it was asking for £50.

So would it be worth forking out that much money and playing it a few times or just stick to good old resident evil?

There is one answer to this: YES.

Good game well worth playing, i was going to say it's too expensive but at £50 it's not too steep and relative to modern games. Some of the silly prices on ebay are three times that.

Yer i just checked the ebay ones, all i can say about those prices is wow But then again it was the last Saturn game released in Europe so it does sort of make sense.

Also judging by the huge YES and +1 that its pretty good, so i am thinking tomorrow i'll go call up the guy and see if he still wants to sell

3 years ago you could pick this up for £18, Saturn prices are getting ridiculous.

Even if you get it and decide to sell it later on i don't think you'll be out of pocket in the end.

I'd say 'no' before watching a few youtube videos of it. £50 is the cheapest you'll see it go for, but it could be 60 or 70. That's a lot of money for 1 saturn games when you could buy a few just as decent titles for the same amount.

Unless you're looking to collect every saturn game on the system in which case you plan to buy it at some point anyway.

The good news is if you get it for £50, supposing it's in great condition, you could always sell it at £60 and make your money back if you don't like it.

A very expensive purchase if you go by the eBay route (usually £70 to £100) but can be had for less if you have a lot of patience & look in the right places.

Gets you some serious collector prestige points. Also it's worth playing for the awesome voice acting alone, it's amazing stuff.

[toecutter]

As a gamer I'd say no as the price is too high.

If your a collector its probadly worth it.

Right firstly I must apologise for such a late reply, been on holiday for awhile on the isle of wight so not really had any access to the web at all.

Although before I left I did watch a few videos and have a look at some of my old saturn magazines, by the time I called him up about it he already sold it I did however find two shops over here and sold saturn games so I just brought 15 saturn games for the same price instead lol

TBH you'd probably get more fun out the 15 games you bought.

I really enjoyed it as well. I picked up the Japanese version first since I already had a JP Saturn and the disc switching would be no problem. If you have a region modded Saturn or JP Saturn, I'd just get the JP version.

BUT...
won't the in game text and in game speech be Japanese if you don't get the UK (or US?) release??

[Syntesis]

It's pretty much like playing a Resident Evil game in Japanese from what I remember.

The spoken language is English with Japanese subtitles and text. Any clues as to what to do next are spoken. The hardest part (for about a second) will be figuring out up & down at the ladders. It's one of the most English friendly Japanese games I've played. All playing the English version told me was some background information.

Much English friendlier than RE to me.

Sadly, North America never got a release. Unliscensed Lost & Found Volume 3 has the North American version but you have to modchip your Saturn since it's just regular cdrs. It's been dumped so do you pay $30ish for a cdr version or make your own.
