RPG fans have been greatly enthused by the most promising trailers of Xbox 360 RPG Magna Carta II, but with the release of the demo doubts have swiftly been raised…
The promising trailer:
The state of affairs revealed in the demo:
Poor quality textures and low resolution are one problem complained of, and Vsync and popup issues apparently abound.
However, at least in Japan the game has none other than Aya Hirano, so perhaps its success is assured…

Wow this game will suck so hard. The graphics suck, and i bet the game will suck, Magna Cata 1 sucked, and this one looks no different.
Given that it's still a demo and any actual work therein is not representative of the finished product, it looks to be visually stunning. That is, IF they do fix all the issues apparent with the demo.
Those pictures are definitely not my ideal. I like my women with legs firmly in their hip joints.
360 vs. PS3, PS3 vs. 360... I thought this topic was about a game, not witch console makes you cream your pants. Really guys can't we talk about game play instead of this childish argument. It dose not prove anything and its really old.
If you like Halo and Gears of War, you probably have a 360. If you like Metal Gear Solid and God of War you probably have a PS3.
The real problem is for people who like Halo and God of War. Two hugeass consoles are a bit of an investment, so it's usually one or the other.
It's not about that actually, it's about 1 game being released on 2 different consoles, whereas one is inferior to the other. Sometimes the 360 version is better, sometimes the PS3 version is better. This makes pretty much everyone rage.
Like I have ToV for the Xbox 360 T_T
someone needs to bitchslap the guy who drew wallpaper 2, and give him a drawing for dummies book.
oh fuck no! Not aya hirano
I just had to endure that annoying bitch in eternal sonata
please someone kill her
I played Magna Carta: Crimson Stigmata on PS2 and it sucked. This second game is sure to be the same. The only thing the first game had going for it is Hyung Tae Kim's art.
Meh. I don't think it looks too bad... this is, after all, what most RPGs does.
We all know preview trailers and game arts can't be expected to be a faithful representation to the full game.
And in the end, if the gameplay and plot are good, I see no problems.
Oh yeah, and I couldn't careless if this game is for PS3 or XBox 360... both consoles have good games and good technical specs.
And to all fanboys who commented here: GO FUCK YOURSELVES.
Get your beloved console and shove it up your asses.
No one wants to know your personal opinnion about them.
I fucking hate your guts.
Have a nice weekend. :D
After playing Tears of Blood. Nthx.
I wait for the PS3 version lol.
What's the point in getting so hyped about Aya Hirano in there and some others I've also recognize if the western version won't get Japanese voices. It was already announced by Bandai Namco that there will be no Japanese voices in US version, same crap like Gundam Musou 2.
what's this about??
Fanboyism is a virus born in the minds of who has very little things to do in real life: and there are more awesome things to do in real life than criticize a game system.
Anyways...I'll buy PS3 only because is completely region free.
You can tell he Sony fanboys are desperate for this or they wouldn't post so much and cry about it so much. It's not going to be the best JRPG in the world but they're still fucking bawwwing. jeeze these guys suck at life.
IF you want JRPG so bad either buy a 360 or shut up and don't expect so much. You've bought the wrong console (even if that is just for the moment). Anyway PS3 has some good games and 360 has some good games so buy which you want but if you want JRPG and you have a PS3 do the smart thing and wait your fucking shoes off or get a 360.
The PS3 is region free though, would be nice to have the JP versions of JRPG. For the people who understand Japanese, though.
With the errors of Magna Carta 1 and the game engine the developers are using... I don't think even the XBox 360 RPG community is holding their breath for this game. The character art looks nice though, hopefully they make an artbook like BlazBlue that might guarantee better sales even if the game sucks xD.
On a side note Sony fanboys you make me ashamed that I spent $500 on a gaming system that I love. I'm sure Xbox 360 owners feel the same as well. All consoles have their problems Delay Station 3, Crash Box Please Fix Me, hell even the Nintendo WiiScam*cough*; it doesn't mean you should boast about the games or even the console, because even though you're a "fan" of the console in the end we all are just consumers buying a product in the developer's eyes, so you're being a fan doesn't prove crap except your own ignorance.
vertical sync issues? It's Aya Style!
Heavy Rain, White Knigth Chronicles, Demon's Soul, ToV v1.0 and soon of after a revised and patched version of Magna Carta II with the Japanes Dub included at the Occidental vesrion...
PS3 wins... even hardcore multiplatarform fighting games sells better at ps3... look at BLAZBLUE its out of stock at ps3, on 360? there are offers...xD
Sure SFIV and soul Calibur IV before, and Tekken 6 and KOFXII soon will sell better! because on shittbox360's controller you only can play some games...
...
this looks terrible. i mean, i buy as many freaking jrpgs as i can if for nothing else but collecting purposes and... this... this looks like shit. i wanna punch some babies and shove my 360 controller up this bitch's ass. hang on ima do that. "hey bitch!" BEEEYAAHHHHH!!!
Looks alright. If you want to see HyungTae Kim's awesome artwork in glorious 3D the upcoming MMO "Soul and Blade" should satisfy you.

I've always loved Hyung Tae Kim's artwork. Unfortunately it is a lot harder to put his artwork into a 3D, animated image.
fanboys are idiots, buy both consoles and enjoy the best of both worlds.
fucking little fanboy kiddies need shooting
What is it about Japanese developers that won't let them develop a decent RPG for the 360? Good RPGs on the 360 have been done--e.g. Fallout 3 (in b4 NMA)--but so far all the Japanese RPGs have sucked pretty bad. Even Nippon Icchi faltered on that console.
I think it's a sign of immaturity in the Japanese RPG. In the west, non-video-game RPGs are much more common and come in a staggering, experimental variety, whereas Japanese RPGs are much rarer and... well, the first one we got over officially, Maid RPG, was less than inspiring. Methinks Japanese developers need a few rounds of Godlike or Kill Puppies For Satan or Mage: The Awakening/Ascension or Ars Magica or the Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG or...
This looks like FFXII with better graphics and less fans.
...
This made me lol. Funny jokes. =P
lol it's magna fking carta what did people fking expect, Final Fantasy XIII,,,,,hmmm? Honestly xbros have this tendency to hype games that are exclusively in their platform. Sure so do playbros but lets be honest this is magna carta for crying out loud. Plant your face in a pillow and scream your lounges out about how awesome you think ur console is because it has another exclusive that ain't a system seller because no one but you cares. Seriously I was hyped for ToV on the 360 until it was confirmed that the balance was ruined (shared overlimit system? Someone got trolled into believing they where getting a tales games even the wiibros got trolled with ToS2). Now lets all keep eating our popcorn and wait for the next wave of shitstorm to hit so we can toss that popcorn in the air and go OMG DID YOU SEE THAT. Gossip gossip gossip.
Wow i'm surprised I actually saw this series again. I've played the 1st one in the PS1 before, didn't finish it though cuz of all the nosebleeding yuri action.
* PS2
Just another crapy version of Final Fantasy!
It's the 'Korean' version of FF. And first one was the only lame game I ever bought for my PS2
Now Im just feeling sorry for 360 ppl...
...More so then I did before...
You are dumb. I am feeling sorry for stupid PS3 owners that paid for an overpriced crap that has no games, and whenever they have, its inferior versions.
Only children with cheap TVs post stuff like that.
I have a 46" 1080p TV and Blu-ray looks great, and I have a job so I can spend a couple bucks extra to buy a Blu-ray instead of a DVD.
The PS3 is the best Blu-ray player so it practically paid for it's self just because of that for me, and I get to play some PS2, PS3 games on it as well, even if half the PS3 games aren't using the systems potential being they are 360 ports and ports never work out well.
The 360 was and remains the lower scale, more affordable system of the two and because of that it will always be more popular the way Honda Accords out sell 1 series BMWs. Get to the market first and make a cheaper product that works well enough is always the best business model.
Fuck you !!! STFU & GTFO !!! Oh, and dun forget to bring da green box full of shit dat get fucked up with ROD every single time u put a fucking DVD in this day and age inside its fucking stinking hole that stinks like your fucking mom's vagoo. U fucking talk about inferior version when Tales of Vesperia has like 1/4 more contents than your sorry ass version. And when those son of a bitch of Xboots try to compare the 2 versions, they purposefully use darker background for PS3 and brighter ones for XMOTHERFUCKINGSHITBOX and they called their trashy version "superior" LOLOLOLOLOL.
Ummm. You really showed him whos... boss???
dude...seriously...what the fuck...CHILLLLLLLL
Yes I agree with you, the 360 is just so damn awesome!!!
Especially the shiny Red Ring, how excellently beautiful it is! It's the perfect decoration for my living room!
but the problem is how did you use your blueray seriously.... my PS3 is already half a year old and is still alive and kicking....
If your Blu-ray drive died, you must have tried to dickwash it. It's for CD's, not for masturbation. Use your Wii for that.
Funny, I could say exactly the same thing about my PS3, what with the blu ray drive breaking a month out of warranty, and Sony wanting hundreds of dollars to fix it. Fuck them.
I'm feeling sorry for people that believe they have reasons to feel sorry for people who bought what they liked. Seriously, stop it, you only make yourself seem even more like a jack ass with these fanboy war things.
I agree, i like the 360 the wii and the ps3 but i refuse to buy a ps3 until the ps2 is completely unsupported or the ps3 is made 100$ cheaper
finally someone who has sense. people stop thinking your tough for arguing via blog post. everyone arguing about this looks like a dumbass...
here comes the dumbass american shitbox fangay
Except for Tales of Vesperia.
Truth about the ToV having all those extras on the PS3, though I doubt the xbox 360 will admit defeat like that. I've heard several rumors about DLC going to be released for the 360, I'll pray for that.
If not, I'll be having a ps3 sooner or later.
You forgot that PS3 demo of TOV runs at lower resolution than xbox 360 one and is more blurry.
But obviously you never see a news talking about that here.
Nice try though.
PS3 ToV has a loli
360 does not
PS3 wins
Sorry about your 360 purchase, those of us who are successful at life own both. And a Wii they never play.
In other news, the combat in this game looks somewhat interesting at least. It will be a nice bargain basement buy for sure.
Talking about low res and bad texture quality when the PS3 has so many inferior versions while 360 has the best.
Hilarious trolling.
Another xbox troll.
u still mad that the PS3 is sucking everywhere ? Not selling and without a games worth a shit ?
People are only saying it sucks due to the major lack of games. If we compare the consoles though the PS3 would crush the Xbox360. It is a more powerful console hands down. May not have many games but the console itself owns Xbox360.
that is not entirely true. The PS3 is more diverse in games and due to the companies philosophy ends up being garunteed that the fanbase will get AAA titles. Yet that wont crush the 360 since the 360 fanbase seems to enjoy what many would consider mediocre games. Also in a world where difference matters they'll take that which you consider to be crap like if it was the 2nd coming of whatever simply to show that they are different. So let as long as these kinda people exists the 360 wont be crushed
Troll failed bad. Was it not the PS3 that's been having people proclaim every game would be good or awesome? Wasn't every game meant to 'save' the PS3? Lair was meant to be good, heavenly sword, uncharted (I hate it) etc. Both consoles have good games but it's clearly PS3 that's had the fanbase clinging onto the new crap. Everything like LBP, uncharted, Heavenly sword or KZ2 got praised to sh*t regardless of quality. hell they even acted positive towards HAZE till it was found out to be multi plat and bad.
PS3 is a shooters console now. You get your Socom, MAG, Agent, Resistance, KZ2, uncharted etc. 360 has moved to RPG more now with Lost odyssey, Blue dragon, star ocean 4, last remnant, magna carta 2 etc.
Anyway you're a dumb troll if you honestly think the 360 is that bad. Both consoles have roughly the same games save for the odd exclusive.
lol u seriously mad about A TOY
Actually PS3 has a higher percentage of shooters than the 360.
But 360 has more shooters.
So, in the end 360 has more games, and most of PS3 games are shooters.
Please, tell me , FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, Where's you Final Fantasy versus 13.
And PS3 a shooter console? ARE YOU RETARDED? God of War3 is not a shooter and most of the other hyped PS3 exclusive games aren't either. You have the roles reversed here, The 360 is the one that's only famous because of Halo and Gears, take that away and you have cock. Up the ass. And I'm talking about some serious cock.
Actually , there's a lot of PS3 exclusive (not to mention , very good ones) coming out this season and this year end. So it's totally winning the console competition this time around~
aww stupid ass american shitbox user
Indeed, if it's showing such poor performance and quality on the xbox 360 it's probably not even possible to make it run on the severely weaker PS3.
Sadly very true
stop talking to urself...
You're quite touchy about this. Stop jumping to conclusions, your fanboyism is showing strong.
And why were people hyped about this again?
I'd never heard of it until just now
But now I'll play it
this
Is...
I think someone did imitate him. Remember, you can put almost every same name in here & act like him/her. Just delete that second "Storm Wing" & all done, no??
same exact post, same exact time... hmm, interesting
Is that someone tries to imitate Storm Wing? Or he's dumb enough to post twice??
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC~!! XD
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC~!! XD
good graphic
...He's using 20 E & 20 I to make that "Epic" word. Everyone with TOO much math lessons in his life will do it ^^;
Back to topic. I must agree... The only thing that'll save this game is only Aya Hirano's role. Nothing else.
HIHIHI
Aya Hirano
yeah man ;)
That voice sounded familiar but I couldn't remember who it came from. Thanks for the name!
I would have been excited about her back when Haruhi first came out, but after being exposed to her voice so much she just has the exact same bland sound in any other role (aside from Konata).
case closed :3
Just hope that the English version would retain the Jap dub...
Xbox 360... Not so sure about a Jap dub to be remaining in the English version to be honest.
Fuck YEA!! :D
+1.
Ah,i love case closed
videogames and anime are both victims of mainstream popularity in this day and age, and their quality suffers horribly from it.
Ok, seriously people. both he x-box and the ps3 have their strong points and just cause you have one doesn't mean you have to constantly criticize the other! both have fun games and what the hell do you earn for criticizing either. Grow up. Its not a war between consoles...
Thank you. Plus, it's not like those people actually made the consoles.
They almost always have the same mentality of a 7 year-old who think the entire world revolves around them. Right now it's gotten to the point where I'm starting to consider the term gamer as another word for whore. :(
The only true gamer is one that can accept that all consoles have something good on them. Even the Wii has some good games, not many, but they are there.
exactly. everyone here is making their own side seem like a bunch of jackasses
Who cares about xbox360. Aya Hirano... Ooooooo... *day-dreaming*
Fuckin' a! Whoever that is in the second pic is built like some sort of fusion between Sailor Senshi and stripper.
wish the game was in 2D...some how the 3D dosen't look right...
I own both I dunno what the big deal is. Why don't you fanboys get a job and just buy both? Oh btw PS2 is a better system than all of them.
I only buy one console per generation. Last generation I bought a Dreamcast, so I did not experience the PS2*
*I more than made up for it with emulators
I love the PS2. So many great RPGs. Some of them I would love to play on my PS3, but of course Sony refuses to add backwards compat to all. I could careless if the BC wasn't perfect, just so long as I could play all the games I have without them being blurry on my TV.
congratz on the win...lol
The graphics are pretty decent in my opinion and as long as it has some good gameplay and characters I'm set.
I agree with myself.
