Nope [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/frown.gif[/img]. Well, there's other ways but I'm not supporting it [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/mad.gif[/img].


FYI, Zorian-san, I was able to get a unopened copy of the DVD version of Giniro through ACJ bidding for me at “Yahoo! Japan”… for 16,000 yens (Giniro was released at 3,600 yens…).
Unopened copies of Mizuiro are findable the same way, but the last aunctions I bid on ended with it at from about 30,000 to 40,000 yens (released price was 8,800 yens)… way too much for me (I would go up to 20,000 yens…)

16000? Out of my budget range for the month~ ;_;

Hrm, Himeya already has it up for sale. I'm wondering whether I should grab this or Utawarerumono, any opinions?

I didn’t play mizuiro, but I can speak for utawarerumono since I played it recently.

I don’t know how good your japanese reading skills are, but the game is heavily emphasized on the storyline, so you will be very sorry if you are just getting the game for the SLG engine. The SLG part is okay, but nothing impressive, and the AI isn’t too smart either. The CG as usual amazing, and so is the storyline (to some extent). The game is strictly linear but the story is very long and intense with a pretty rich cast of characters, male and female (I played the game for 12 hrs straight without sleeping until I start to drop dead), playtime is around 20 hrs but like I said it’s strictly linear so like regular RPGs it’s hard to have replay value for it. It’s worth playing just for the CGs and the storyline, but if you can’t read japanese, then I am not so sure. Honestly, don’t expect a lot from the battle engine though, I guess that’s the most important thing to remind people about.

Thanks, I know what I'm picking up now. ^^

like I said, if you can’t understand Japanese well, I would recommend against picking up utawarerumono

^^;;;;; "Mizuiro" is a Visual Novel... So, if you can't understand Japanese well, I wouldn't recommend it either... ^_^'

Hey…I want this game; can anyone tell me the full title and/or where to get it?

Silver? It's Silver - Giniro -, think you can only find it on Yahoo Japan auctions nowadays.
