Has anyone else noticed Tokyo Rose's broadcasts on the first of the month? I hope I'm not the only one hearing this...

I didn't know it was a schedule though...I just thought it was random.

I usually run with sounds off anyway.

You might want to consult a counselor. Tokyo Rose is featured in the ambient sounds of the game but if it is really having a pronounced negative effect upon you then you may be bordering somewhere near what is called "paranoid schizophrenia" in modern psychological parlance. It would probably be a good idea to get it checked just to be on the safe side.

Yeah....There are maybe 3 of them that are played randomly and very rarely in the game..
Search for them in this forum and you will see at least 2 prior threads about their inclusion..I believe they arrived with the first "upgrade"....
They...are....awesome...........

Pacific general has lots of similar radio broadcasts as its music. Japanese radio, british radio and US radio. I even converted its music to mp3 to listen it in UV.
