Probably the first and only time I needed since the English dub in the game was either atrociously funny or funnily atrocious. When DW4 and 5 came along, they didn't have them. I was wondering why they didn't include them, yet in the DW5 Xbox version, they have it. I wonder why they are inconsistent, unlike the Soul Calibur games.

If they can only fit one vocal track on a disc, they go with the English dub because they assume that's what the majority wants to hear. Of course they're wrong, as most Musou players are into authenticity.
