Well, is there still a chance someone like Ubisoft can bring it over, like with Drakengard 2? I'm just wondering if FM5 is even worth bringing over (haven't read any reviews).

I've heard FM5 is the best in the series (which would be a feat, since I really liked 4), and that was from a rabid Front Mission fan.

Alot of the gameplay you had in the original FM are in 5 like arenas I read. The story has a very cinematic flavor and boasted some above average VA. Had a great OST and much improved balance and graphics. It was their 10th anniversry and they really pulled out all the stops to make it a killer app. It just got caught in the crunch of major releases like Valkyrie Profile 2 and Final Fantasy XII along with all the VII compilation games. Someone posted in gamefaqs awhile back there was some copyright issue with the subtitle but it wasn't a major issue they couldn't of bypassed if they were interested. I think they simply took a look at sales of the last 2 games and decided it wasn't worth the effort.

Well shucks, now I want to try it. I enjoyed FM3, but only tried a little bit of 4 (I should get back to it some day). Does the import have an english text option?

Funny.
Very funny.*

It was worth a shot.
