Looking to get into the import (games, not brides) scene? Don't know your Kyojin no Doshin from your Choaniki: Sei Naru Protein Densetsu? Wondering if you should finally nab that Panasonic Q? Gamespot has a primer on what you need to know and where you need to go to get your Japanese (or European) gaming thing on. It's a good resource for those looking to dive into the deep end of obscure gaming, but lacks a decent list of recommended import-only titles. Sure, they mention some of the recent highlights, such as Ouendan, Earth Defense Force 2, and Baito Hell 2000, but where are XII Stag, Vib Ribbon, Gunstar Heroes: Treasure Box and a dozen other great titles? And not a single mention of the still kickin' Dreamcast? For shame, Gamespot.

If you're looking for more info on reviews, previews and opinions of Japan-only titles, check out NTSC-uk, NCSX and Insert Credit, or visit your local library.
