"Shadow of Memories" looks like it was a JP EU release for the PS2 and Xbox but didn't come out in the US as far as I can tell.
Is there a plan to release it to the US? Was it ever officially canceled? This game is almost six years old (on the PS2) but I've only recently heard about it. Maybe it was just bad.
Anyway, has anyone played it? Care to give your impressions?

It did come out in the US as "Shadow of Destiny".
And it's a fucking excellent game, to boot.
It's more along the lines of a graphic adventure, so it's definitely driven by plot moreso than anything else. The graphics are middle-of the road, as it was an early PS2 title.
The premise of the game...your character is killed, and you travel back in time to find the killer. However, the story continues by means of other deaths and various mysterious events that require more time traveling to solve.
I loved it, and I know others who have as well. Just don't go in expecting anything extraordinary-it's just a solid game.

Shadow of Destiny? Because "Memories" wasn't hip enough? Jeez, darn marketing department almost cost me a bunch of money (almost bought it from the UK).
Well, okay, then thanks everyone for letting me know it's a good solid game. I can certainly enjoy a good adventure.
