Personally I find their PC titles to be more interesting. Ever 17 and Anima Mundi look like they'd be worth their price.

You didn't like any of their Dvd titles? I know that some of them sucked, but Phantom and Hourglass of Summer were very good, provided that you liked action/drama and romance drama respectively.

As far as the PC titles go, I'm not so sure about Ever 17, and i already have been through and through the AiAo anime, so i won't be getting that either. That AnimaMundi does look pretty damn interesting... that is, if it ever comes out. They have a hard time releasing stuff it seems(like a yr and a half Mad) I think i'll check out that Breath of Fire ripoff, Dragonia(they have a short blonde-haired princess AND the blue haired protaganist is named Ryu. Did they have to be so obvious?). Fortunately, i preferably like Breath of Fire, so it might be decent to dive into.

I played Hourglass of Summer but was turned off by the audio quality (some of the higher voices had a ringing, tinny sound in the background) and having spent a week saving Mana and Kaho from injury and death, only to have Kaho find another way to die...Well, I got sick of it. Also, when I tried to skip some of the dialogue my DVD player told me this wasn't an option so I was stuck listening to the lead guy rambling on and on. Unless I hear from other sources that the rest of their DVDs don't have those problems I'm going to stick with PC games.

I noticed the slow translation as well. Perhaps they translate everything and then run it through a few times testing out the various sides of the story to make sure that they haven't missed anything? It would make sense to do so but would also slow down release time.
Don't know a single thing about Breath of Fire so no comment.
