PS2 Previews May 28, 2004'Non-linear' and 'Japanese' are two words that you don't often see paired up together, at least when it comes to games. Most Japanese games (and a lot of Western ones, to be fair) feature linear narratives that proceed directly from point A to B to C - Final Fantasy X is a perfect example. However, a few developers have dared to experiment outside these restrictive boundaries, giving players the ability to experience a storyline dynamically shaped by the choices they make.
