Capcom have finally announced the release date of the long awaited Street Fighter IV, making a surprise announcement at the end of their recent exhibition; SF IV is set to have a multiplatform console release in Febuary 2009, they say.
The latest in the excellent Naruto based Narutimate Hero (or Naruto: Ultimate Ninja, if you prefer) series of 3D action/fighting games has been confirmed as being due for a winter release on the PS3. The game is entitled NARUTO ‐ ナルト ‐ ナルティメットストーム / Narutimate Storm.
I'm hoping for Shippuden to be released on the consoles more often, I've only heard of it being made mostly for the Wii(I think there was one for PS2).... More
I felt the premise was pretty good.... then ninjas started to have super powers, like mutants from X-Men. Thats when I felt it got out of hand. I only watched till Naruto beat Gaara. Then... More
Excellent strategic PS3 RPG 戦場のヴァルキュリア / Valkyria Chronicles, due in English in November, is set to receive a manga adaptation, which in something of a surprising move, is to be a BL title focused on homoerotic senpai-kouhai antics.
Much hyped PS3 moddable community platformer LittleBigPlanet, due October 21st, has been subjected to a MikuMiku onslaught, with Hatsune Miku, or rather Hachune Miku, added and providing a rather terrifying level of negi swinging hazard. You can see her in action in this video:
Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion seems to be departing from its normal aesthetic with the addition of this Alisa Boskonovitch costume (her name is rather unfortunately rendered into Japanese with the ‘v’ becoming a ‘b’). Just who is she cosplaying?
You can see from some of the other images that Tekken 6 is shaping up to be Soul Calibur IV all over again… Expect schoolgirl costumes aplenty.
PS3 owning RPG fans will be interested to hear that popular musically themed RPG トラスティベル 〜ショパンの夢〜 ルプリーズ / Trusty Bell ~Chopin no Yume~ Reprise, or Eternal Sonata – Reprise, to give it its rather better English title, has just been released in Japan for the PS3, with the English language release due in mid October.
Wow, so it is Aya Hirano's voice! I picked this game up because I was looking for an RPG and I set the voice setting to Japanese and I totally thought it sounded just like... More
From what i heard, the English release of the 360 version has the option to play in either Japanese or English voiceovers.. Wonnder if they're gonna do the same for the PS3 release.... More
And Microsoft’s reply would be “no thanks”? Crooked former billionaire felon Horiemon (堀江貴文 / Takafumi Horie), disgraced former boss of Livedoor, has come out in an interview saying that Sony would be better of selling off its hardware business, including the PS3, and focusing on pursuing its true calling of producing blockbuster movies, going on to claim he was planning to buy Sony and make this so.
You can forget about merely being able to knock the “armour” off of the characters in Soul Calibur IV; it appears in fact you can force them (even ones possessing such improbable pantomime figures as Ivy) into battle in their very underwear, or in at least one case, completely naked.
Final Fantasy XIII to get a PC version? Yes, according to no less a source than Nvidia itself, unless this is some sort of misunderstanding; see below for their words.
Covered in sweet milk? “SRPG” Tears to Tiara, which is shaping up to be a masterpiece visual novel in my opinion, somehow managed to get a CERO B rating in spite of scenes like this, which truly is heartening. More below.
The much anticipated ティアーズ・トゥ・ティアラ / Tears to Tiara was recently released, and I braved the summer thunderstorms in a foray to Ikebukuro to pick up a copy; much to my surprise the kind folks at Bic Camera also saw fit to provide me with the preorder goody box, despite having not preordered or even bothered to buy the collector’s edition. Having had a chance to get into the game, I offer my impressions.
Hot on the heels of the news that Final Fantasy XIII will not be a PS3 exclusive, doubtless thanks to some great clinking sacks of Microsoft’s Windows revenue, is the newly opened Final Fantasy XIII official site. And on it is a very nice looking trailer, though little else.
I remember my time at TGS where they announced the thirteenth game with a short film that you've all seen on that "train". And It ended with this: ONLY ON THE PLAYSTATION 3 Bet if you all... More
Ahh yeah, im not claiming that every exclusive gained by microsoft has nothing to do with money. Its things like the GTA4 episodes, lots of people say microsoft paid for them to be exclusive, when in... More
