Wow, alt. storyline in Code Geass PS2 :3

Hey guys, has anyone played Code Geass games for PS2? Just recently received it, though at the moment I'm trying to extract any original videos in the DVD, but it failed some unapparant reason. I could extract the video, but the audio track is separated. I wonder if someone else has ripped it? Please let me know, I'm using Cube Media Player 2

There are some striking differences on the game, concerning Euphie:

It seems Bandai is kind enough to provide alt. ending on this game, basically Euphie's geass effect was somehow cancelled and she became unconscious. Could we assume to say there is a happy ending scenario here? (I think the main character of this game got Geass-cancellation Geass)

No bloody killing

There are also some interesting video such as this one, depicting some glimmering lights fell from the Island. I wonder that could be? Perhaps a sign of something important? I think the main character of the game is dead, or using up his geass to the max (the similar light also appeared during previous scene)

(there are more scenes actually, havent been able to upload because bad connection)

And now, another cliche from typical anime, watching fireworks:

I think there are still more to report, but I'm yet to figure out how to correctly ripping the video and the audio D:

And also, I'm looking for walkthrough if anyone have, because I have watched Code Geass I probably could guess the conversation context.

I'm not really up for writing a full FAQ, but I think there are some walkthroughs/information threads on the GameFAQs boards for the game.

About plot (Spoiler Warning!)



The fix-it routes only occur after you've played through the game once. The island of sparkly lights thing is from the first play through, where Rai goes back into hibernation on Kaminejima because his Geass power is going out of control. He uses his Geass to make everyone forget he ever existed around episode... oh, 20 or so of the anime. He's effectively removed from the timeline and one assumes that, were Lost Colors canon, this results in the later events of the anime remaining largely unchanged.

In the Black Knights/Britannian Military scenarios, the massacre never happens because Rai stops Euphie after she's accidentally Geassed by Lelouch, the SAR takes off and becomes a success and you're propelled into a happy shiney AU where things eventually all work out and nobody dies. The Ashford Academy and Blue Moon scenarios end before that point, and I don't know what happens with the JLF route because it's only available in the PSP version which I don't have :P

The main character's background is pretty angsty by definition, you'll see when you play it. ^^;

The terrorist incident is original to the game. It's pretty neat, makes you feel so sorry for Lelouch because he's utterly incompetent as a physical fighter ^^;


*Spoiler Warning again*



That is from the ending for the Ashford Academy and Blue Moon scenarios. A bunch of terrorists (not affiliated with Black Knights) hold the students of the academy hostage at the School Fair. They're about to shoot the students when Rai, furious, uses his Geass and commands them to commit suicide (like what Lelouch does) and then uses it again to make the students forget it happened.

Overuse of his Geass causes it to go out of control again (this is why he was originally in hibernation), so Rai runs away for fear of hurting his friends and is either never heard from again, or, if you got Lelouch's ending, returns later to help Lelouch after mastering control over his Geass.

I'm expecting the main character to Geass LeLouch actually 8D

I saw a gameplay video of Rai geassing Lelouch into liking him. It was really hilarious. Not sure which route it is from, though, Blue Moon, perhaps?
