Really? I've never had major technical problems with any of SF's releases, although I have to admit that my experience with them is limited to JA, Disciples and Robin Hood. Sure, there was a minor bug here and there, but nothing like the werewolves' physical damage immunity not applying to critical hits. Interesting.Strategy first has done that many times before. They have even released unfinished press versions of games without telling anything to the developers.

I dont know about Akella but Strategy First's history is full of bad releases. Som of the worst I have ever heard infact. They lie to customers and they lie to developers of the games they publish. SF has a reverse midas-touch. Generally I avoid buying anything from them. Im amazed they are still operating after all the years.
Anyway, the reason I don't put much faith in the console taint version is because, come on, nobody could seriously believe that a tactics game had any future on consoles without a big name like Final Fantasy or D&D to back it up. JA3 must have been developed as a niche title from the very beginning.
