No escape from these new Bleach: Heat the Soul 5 clips

by Andrew Yoon { May 21st 2008 at 3:45PM }

For some reason, Bleach: Heat the Soul isn't on schedule for a US release. Too bad, because these new gameplay clips from the latest game in the franchise (they're up to #5 now) look pretty solid. Fighting games are few and far on our handheld -- we'd love to see something other than Naruto on the horizon. Perhaps, someone, somewhere, will head our pleas for a US release of any of the Heat the Soul games. Onegai? Until then, we're simply going to have to import the games.

The second vid dont work for me, it just comes up with the Gametrailer logo and the audio. Also, is this import freindly?

The menus are english and it's wise to turn on the autosave feature on the game before starting to play, the story mode is all japanese but there are guides and it's still fun to play even tough you don't know japanese

I played the demo and thought it was a lot of fun. I'm heading to a big anime/manga convention this weekend and I'm hoping that I can get ahold of one of the five Heat the Soul titles from an import booth (which I'm told are plentiful).

yea i also played the demo and thought it was a lots of fun. I would be nice if Bleach came out in the US soon we need more anime games to come to the US.

I played the demo and quite enjoyed it (I don't have any fighting games on my PSP), but struggled with the language and not understanding what all the buttons did (seemed to be something different each time I pressed one). For that reason alone I'll probably give this a miss unless they decide to produce an English language version.

Sorry for being off subject, but-

My brothers Psp got stolen, along with alot of my games. I am getting the urge to hack my psp just to download the stolen games, but am strongly against hacking What should I do? Im afraid i'll get the urge to download other games aswell!!! Thanks :D

Why don't you just put in a claim on your insurance? Most household policies cover things like PSPs if you don't have your own personal kit insurance. Or if you bought the games on a credit card, most card providers offer insurance for products bought on them.

That way you don't have to turn to piracy or risk bricking your PSP...
