Default Right Side Driving?

Damn Japanese making us play the game with the driver sitting on the right side!
How could I pursue the dream of the playable character with glasses as a GTA runover maniac?
lol

Anyways you think the english version will flip it to the left side?
XD

I dont think they would. Its less of a Japanese road rule than it is the game environment. We english have to drive on the other side of the road in GTA and other American games, but we get used to it. Changing the side for the different versions would be taking away the games setting and making it too reality based (Ignoring "...fantasy based on reality" )

Why would they? America isn't the centre of the world >.> They don't switch them over in movies so why would they in games? We drive on the left/sit on the right in the UK and I don't see them switching it over in the PAL release of GTA.

It's supposed to be based on a certain district of Tokyo.

And I doubt many 6 year olds would be getting this game if it's as mature as is being indicated.

If they're that young, they'll probably just see it as fantasy rather than error, spouting "How absurd! A game in which you drive your auto-mo-bile on the right? Proposterous!".

All 6 year olds talk like that. Plus whats the age rating for the game? Thank to good old Fox News and Jack Thompson, parents are getting a little more cautious towards the murderer disguised as a disk that could be sneaking into their childs game console.

Believe it or not, alot of kids buy these games, it will especially be bought by more kids if the game will be an action rpg like KH.

Believe it or not, this game isn't centered around Disney. It's dark, mature and has blood in it. Being an Action RPG doesn't make it more kid-friendly >.>

Kinda missed my point there, but im continuing a tangent beyond its limit. Point is, not many people will mind because you're either a casual game player who knows why games design things the way they do, or you're a kid who couldn't care less and just likes the idea of swords and mega death.

Well believe it or not many kids these days grow up on most of the classic Disney characters that were featured on KH.
Plus a button mashing game is always adored by the wee-ones!

Believe it or not, this phrase is becoming over used in this thread and has destroyed its own ironic effect. All i can say is what ive said before, kids like action games but parents are getting over protective. Kids dont care about driving sides. If kids want button bashing, they can borrow my button-shaped cheese grater.

....And? You just made my own point lol. Kids like KH because it's Disney, so they're not just gonna automatically like Versus because it's an action RPG.
