Western version
|
The logo used in the Western version of the game is altered a bit to not have Katakana text present. In addition, as the Japanese version's Title Screen theme is used as the game's opening theme, the Western version's title screen features different music.
FMVs with a lot of onscreen text have their text altered to be in English.
