It’s always a pleasure to talk about action games. Look, for instance, on the daring leap that Santa Monica has taken with this game. A multiplayer mode in a franchise with five big entries focused solely on single-player. Sure: it’s Sony. They’ve got money.
Even so, it doesn’t hurt to play it safe, specially when you’ve got a potential God of War 4 or Descent or… Betrayal HD.
Nostalgia plays a big role when you decide to play this game again. While we are quite far from the oft-requested HD remake, some people would be satisfied to have slight improvements such as upscaled graphics and pristine sound quality.
But we are talking about Square Enix, so you can bet there is a catch. Prepare for some tradeoffs (or rather, sacrifices) if you’re willing to pay 12 gil, specially if you really want to play the same game from 1997.
Can it get any cheaper than this?
Also known as IF Prototype LQ-84i, this mechanical beast plays its part in the main game’s narrative from both sides of the intense cybernetic war. Owner of a sentient and superior AI compared to his mass-produced clones, Bladewolf struggles to become more than just a pawn in Desperado‘s plans.
In the other hand, Platinum hasn’t shown the same resolve to create this side-story.
Almost 3 years have passed since Red Seeds Profile was released in Japan for the PS3. EU and NA got a localized version, of course, but only for the Xbox 360. To compensate for this delay, Rising Star Games now brings us an upgraded version.
If you expect an improvement of superficial features akin to an HD remake, think again. This works more like a massive patch and it fixes some of the most important qualities present in this raw gem.
After numerous adventures through alien-infested caves and haunted elegant hallways, I’ve been thinking of how the same platformer structure would work in different setpieces. It is something that made me realize the importance of the metroidvania genre in this current generation. After all, Other M and Mirror of Fate are gradually straying from their 2D origins.
If anything, this could be a greater example of the genre’s success if it wasn’t so short! DrinkBox isn’t at fault for this, though.
Not everyone is resting easily while Square Enix develops Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster. The fact that both games got exclusive content in a Japan-only release still makes most NA and EU fans wary of what could be potentially cut because reasons.
To make you guys aware of this situation and make some noise, I present you Operation Full Throttle: a non-profit fan initiative intended on convincing Square’s developers to release the games across all regions without removing anything.
Crazy, indeed! But this is not all FFX-2 has got up its sleeve. What happens when you put a lot of extra content in a game that is designed around side-quests?
That thing about Vegnagun and the whole Shuyin / Lenne romance? I’ve got better stuff to talk about!
Jetstream Sam. Possibly the most iconic character in Rising considering his influence on Raiden, both physically and psychologically. Amidst so many crazy bosses in the game, there was this guy with a code of honor and ideals that would rival the protagonist’s. He wasn’t evil, but was also not willing to give up without a fight. Who was he, anyway?
You may not see everything you wanted to, but it’s good while it lasts.
Subscribers, rejoice: PSN action title Malicious is up!
After what seemed like an eternity, a demo for the sinister Monster Hunter lookalike from Marvelous AQL has finally appeared in the storefront. At the time of writing, the store’s full update hasn’t happened yet, but you can find some of its pieces scattered if you look hard enough.
Wait, so there were actually FOUR versions of Final Fantasy X?
With the re-release of Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster, it would be nice to tell you what exactly is new in the package and what was already there back in the old Playstation 2. This game is one of the weaker examples of software revisions and updates before DLC was commonplace in the industry, with Square Enix being one of the most fond of such practices.
The lead producer of the Tales of Series unveiled some details about the franchise’s future and the release date of the next PS3 entry following Tales of Graces f.
PSP owners, rejoice! NIS America just announced that the two-year-old Action RPG will be localized and made available via download on PSN. Vita compatibility is still a mystery.
Because why not? It’s been 4 years already and Dark Souls 2 is right around the corner.
An unofficial mod for the PC version of Sonic Generations achieved what Sonic Unleashed lacked: a focus on the GOTTA GO FAST style. Half of the home console-exclusive title had you controlling a werewolf with Dhalsim’s abilities. Not anymore!
Only for PS Vita, though. However, there are some reasons for double-dipping the 100-hour grindfest if you’ve already played the PS3 version.
