Yeah, Drakengard 3 is still nuts, so a giant baby invasion wouldn't be out of the ordinary. Of course, the first game already DID that, so it's passé. If you're worried about spoilers, the character stories don't reveal anything; they just introduce the cast and their various psychological problems. Some of the DLC side-quests (Four's and Five's, for example) are spoiler-free as well, but I'd avoid any YouTube footage if you want to approach the game fresh. |

I have fond memories of my time with Castlevania. Aria/Dawn of Sorrow, Portrait, Ecclesia, Lament (technically in 3D), and especially the newer Harmony of Despair are in my opinion some of the best examples of 2D platform gaming at their finest. I've also always been rather invested in the backstory of all the games.
I have fun with Judgment. I certainly think it could have been a bit better (character choice & story), but for what it is, I have lots of fun with it. It's a shame that it's hit such turbulence as of late - I tried to give Lords of shadow a try, but after hitting the giant rock.....golem....thing towards the beginning of the game, I just found it to be sooooooo pointless and boring that I went and returned it to the store - one of the few games I've ever done that with. |

P3 and 4 use basically the same battle system as SMT3. They both use versions of the Press Turn battle system with the same rules and functions. Persona 1 shares gameplay elements with previous SMT games of that time as well in things such as negotiations. So they do actually have gameplay similarities among common names of things and demons and whatnot. As for Konami. Well they are terrible and can die. The mess that is thier game side is all thier own fault. Of course they make tons of money on other things like hotels so I guess Konami will never turly disappear.

Mmm, Fujisaka's art is beautiful. His art really helped to sell The Last Story to me (well, along with Sakaguchi and Uematsu's involvement, of course). Hope Drakengard 3 itself will hold up well enough beyond the art design.
Yum, yum, and yum. Am a bit curious, though, as to why Squenix graced you with the Japanese version/memorabilia rather than the more 'common' limited edition that Square Enix is putting out this May. Just how do they love so? ![]() I suppose there won't be any translation booklets for some of the memorabilia like Aniplex USA does with their limited edition releases, huh? At the very least, toddc, does the Japanese release of the game itself come with English subtitles? |

Konami just launched a new Yu-Gi-Oh! game on XBLA/PSN for 360/PS3 last month. It's developed in Canada, but that was Konami's decision. Evidently they yield a higher return on F2P phone trash than retail video games. |

Nice to see someone else liking Castlevania Judgment. Yeah, I can understand why people didn't like it, but I found it to be a very fun fighting game that definitely delivers a good challenge, even when fighting the CPU; shame that Time Reaper is so freaking annoying to beat on the highest difficulty. Also, there was some surprising hidden depth in Judgment, mainly through item canceling, but most people didn't seem to really give it enough attention for that depth to really be discovered. |

Millennium Duels is an extremely barebones Yu-Gi-Oh game, but since it's outsourced that's to be expected. No story mode, no visual novel elements like choosing partners and forming relationships, cutscenes, and all that stuff. Pretty much just one of those dueling program. I'm going to assume Konami will do a "1 game per series" rule now if Zexal is anything to go by. Arc-V probably won't get one until the end of it's run |
