Einhander Japan PSN

Post by lawnspic »

Does anyone have this for PS3 downloaded via Japan PSN? Thinking about purchase as i have not played in a while and sold my copy years ago. I hope the emulation is decent so wondering if it is worth it, thanks

Emulation for all PS1 games on PSN is the same. It's essentially perfect, but there's a small added bit of input lag. I believe you can reduce it on PS3 by disabling upscaling.

I have no complaints, but I'm awful at Einhander.

Picked it up earlier and it plays very nice. Was happy to see this as some others i have had were not so great in the lag department. Well worth the 600 yen to now play it on my 46 in plasma, man have things sure changed :D

This game, along with Axelay (to a far lesser extent), deserves a much needed sequel.

I have it. Works perfectly. Download it if you have Japanese PSN credit. There are also other PS1 shmups available.

Indeed it plays well, just have to get used to the upscale. This is the time i wish i had my old 27 in Sony crt with my PSX hooked up via S-video. The translation of some of the old school titles to and HD display can be rough. As far as Einhander is concerned i forgot how good this game is, i love the weapon pods and level design.

Wow this game goes for stupid money on eBay ...

Where's that thread about buying games off the Japanese PSN?

This is the new version

Game seems to be a hot item on EBay, PSN is a good value
