Thanks finzenku!

I'll be sure to test the load times before I submit any runs. I won't be able to start running for a while but I figured it'd be a good idea to ask ahead of time. :)

Hi all, Just wanted to know what the version differences between NTSC-U and J are. I wanted to pick up this series for speedrunning, but importing the NTSC-U versions to Australia is quite expensive and I already own the Japanese versions of all 4 games. If the Japanese version is really bad for running, would running the American version off of a PS2 HDD at disc load speed be an option? Thanks in advance.
