Despite the amazing artwork, compelling characters and stunning storylines of most anime television shows and movies, whenever they make it over the the USA they get dubbed over with hamfisted script re-writes. Video games often get this treatment as well although presumably with more flexibility as far as changing cutscenes and animations to fit better with what characters say. Some Japanese video games give you the option of hearing characters speak in their original tongue. While it wasn’t included in the original release of the game, American 360 owners can download the Japanese voices for Naruto: Rise of a Ninja for free. The only catch is that you have to be able to access xbox live of course. Since this content is free of charge it is available to both silver and gold membership levels.
