I GOT THE BOUNCER GAME TODAY

Well me personally I would buy it, it all depends on what type of gamer you are I think. The game itself is not a true RPG. Its based more on fighting and following a story. You will spend hours getting your Bouncer\'s to their full maximum power. I went thru the story mode about 3 times to get 1 Bouncer to his full power, and I just did different things in the game to see different results and to see a different story. Plus all the secret characters you get are cool...when you beat the story mode the 2nd time you get the characters plus the 2 version of the final boss. When you beat the game the 3rd time you get the 3rd version of the boss.Oh and I found out how to get that cool Matrix movies trick, when another bouncer uses his taunt method you gotta hit your taught method right after that. I\'ll try to get a picture of this cool effect.

Hmm.... finishing the game 3 x 3 characters = 9. I hope I won\'t get bored. You said to get more power you have to play the story mode again, right? Then, how about survival mode? Will that do? Or is it just a different thing, just to reveal secret characters? Man, it\'s still 2+ months to go and look\'it my questions. Time to put the right foot into my mouth then :surprised
And about the Matrix move, now how you gonna take a snap at that? Pause it? Can you do it in a three way dance? And can you use the revealed characters in the story mode? If you can then the story is gonna be massive.... I\'m doing it again aren\'t I? Hehhh..... there goes the left foot... MMPPHHTTT..... :hold:
Well, I better stop now before I have to borrow someone else\'s foot, thanx so much for the info you have given us so far.

I heard there were special moves called Trinity Rush attacks, and it involved all 3 bouncers teaming up and attacking one enemy.  Have you tried any of them yet?  If so, how do you perform the attacks?

I dont think you can use any of the secret characters in the story mode and you only can get bouncer points to build up your bouncer in the story mode,,the survival mode is just there to play with your beefed up bouncers and the secret characters aleady come with their special moves. Yes to do the trinity rush you have to pay attention while playing,,when you are beating up on someone and you hear 1 of the other 2 bouncers say their taunt you immediatly hit your tautn button and it will start..easy for me now. My camera has like a speed shot option that lets you take about 5 pics a sec..cool huh

I got my copy today!!!
Wooohooo, im so happy now. had to wait a week for the importer to get (bloody holidays and all)

i got my PS2 hooked up to a wide screen grundig (via scart) and a dobly digital sound system. This game rocks.
i cant wait to see what Square do with FFX!!!!

As The Bouncer said, it takes about 2 hours per character in story mode if you skip the cinemas, but why would you, they are so sweet!!!! you just wanna watch them over an over.
It brings tears to my eyes.


Anyone notice the homage payed to the FF series????
For example, the cactus character on Volt\'s Jacket (from FFIX)????





BTW, those of you with Japanese consoles who buy The Bouncer (jap version), may want to use the Japanese voice overs and english subtitles.
The engish voices sound kinda gay.

YIIPPEEEE, today I just popped in to my favorite videogame store and suddenly my eye caught something very shiny..... it\'s.... it\'s.... ooh yeaah.... it\'s The Bouncer!! And next to it was a PS2 Jap version, and without hesitation I just asked the store keeper to play The Bouncer just to see the demo, boy was he kind, he gave me the controller and let me try it a bit.
Man, everything was like in slow motion..... Just look at that graphics.... nothing like I\'ve ever seen before.... sniff... sniff... good thing I took THE BOUNCER\'s advice to bring a Klenex when playing this game . When I got to the option menu, everything was in Japanese, so I just switched some choices and voila!! English!! IT\'S GAME TIME!!!
The cinematic scenes were incredible, but then after a few minutes kicking some Mikados\' butts one of the Mikado\'s kicked my butt and got beaten :boom: DOH!! Then a scene where Mugetsu kidnapped Dominique, just before he leaped out the window, man, look at Dominique\'s emotion, looks like the Emotion Engine is cookin\'.
Too bad I got a US PS2 and by living in the UK, gonna take some more time to see US ver. The Bouncer on that store\'s shelf. You see, this is the only store in London that also sells Imported games and consoles, from the good ol\' Atari, the most popular PS2. It was great while it lasted. Dominique\'s voice is very sexy, in Japanese and in English :facelick: .
Shintaro, I have a feeling that you\'re living in London too

shintar: the cactus on the guy\'s jacket is from FFVIII it was a secret summon charecter u could get

I would think that it shouldn\'t take to long for The Bouncer to be converted to US. It would seem the main thing to change: the language, is already done so it shouldn\'t be as big a hassle to convert it. Oh well it might just be wishful hinking because I want this game so much.

uhhh, yeah, FFVIII.
My bad.

you are the luckiest man alive bouncer
man i would pay sooo much to seee that game on my ps2...
but i gotta wait......

Heh; nice little detail

cactuar, was it?

The Bouncer is on my waiting list. I\'m going to buy it for three reasons:

1. Square

2. Graphics

3. Gameplay

I don\'t mind if it doesn\'t last so long. I think it\'s a game that you can complete various times even with beefed up bouncers

i couldnt help myself...i just pre ordered it at ebworld.com...lol and if you havnt pre ordered yet u might want to soon!

I ve heard that there are rumors that you can use your saved Bouncers on a future Square game.
Only time will tell.Could it be a new Ehrgeiz,FF,or Bouner2?

Hey, have you played Suikoden 2? If you did, you should notice that the game requested a saved file from the first Suikoden. Luckily I still have it and used it. So most probably that the future Square game that would request this saved file is its sequel.... The Bouncer 2!!

I can\'t wait til it comes out
