Apparently, according to Tecmo US (I am certainly not this far along) there is a big bug in the MF4 game. When you complete everything, the game save you are allowed doesn't actually save your info for later play, it gets deleted and you don't see the ending animation you were supposed to, the game freezes up and that's it a a certain point.

Oviously,this will be fixed in the US, and they are working on patching it for Japan.

HOLY COW!!

Tecmo seems to have more then their fair share of bugs in their games, that's for sure.

It's nice to see they're patching and fixing it tho. How exactly will they patch it for the Japanese players tho? Release a second disc or something?

Well, that would suck. Good thing it was caught and is being fixed.

I would think they'd almost have to release a whole new revised disk and offer to replace the defective ones for people.

Hopefully they add more letters available to name monsters o_O

Wow, this reminds me of Black and White, and how much of a turd it was for being buggy, and unplayable even with the installed patches (Not trying to say Mf4 is bad, but B&W really had a lot of problems even the patches failed to fix).

This problems really bothers me. Didn't Tecmo learn anything from MR3 with that buggy quest? I hope they fix Mf4 asap while maybe they add some extra stuff for the Japanese customers. Is that a good sign or a bad sign when you found out your finished console game is buggy where you can't fully play it?

No offense, but that's kinda sad for a console game to be that buggy even if it's and MR game (Console games should never be this buggy). Sorry about the attitude, but after playing so many buggy games where developers do almost nothing about it (cough Molyneux with Black and White cough), this has become a huge pet peeve for me.

the kararagi bug only occured in MR3 not in MF3. I have MF3 and i never encountered the bug (I lost to Gadamon in kararagi)
