What do I need

To play Japanese games on my PC?

I'm trying to get Sora (a shooter game made by a Doujin Group named Orange Juice) to work on my PC (Windows 7) but it won't. Note that it does support Windows 7. It Just came out a year ago.

Do I need a Japanese language pack for my PC? If so then is there any trusted places I could find one. (Norton crapped out on me so I can't search for damn near anything safely right now)

You need working antivirus, get avast or nod32 or avg or windows security or anything I am forgetting of the many serviceable free-for-personal-use antivirus suites.

I like avast because of antivirus programs I have used it has from my experience been the thing least likely to take a huge shit all over my system resources but I am sure that other people's experiences will vary.

I have AVG now. But never mind that, what I need to know is how to get my J games to work on my PC. Do I need a language pack or something else entirely?

Definitely a Language pack.

Thanks Doc. I figured that was what I needed. I'll try it out now.
