Excited for Tales of Xillia, it's so close, yet so far away

Snookies124550d ago

Picking it up day one. Already have it paid in full. :]

I loved Graces f, so I know I'll love Xillia. That's what I like about the Tales series. It's like what Final Fantasy used to do. Keeping the structure that made the series popular, but changing enough for it to feel like a new game.

I loved Tales of Graces f, and that's exactly why I'm buying it, introduced me to the series, pretty much.

Just a heads up the battle system is a step down from Graces.

Looking forward to Pikmin 3, It looks to be pretty solid, I know its niche but it can only help sell some WiiU's

This is the best pikmin game yet!! yeah, it's getting hi scores, but that doesn't mean anything to me... I don't trust the video game media.. I rent a game for myself, and judge it my self, but I have a feeling pikmin 3 is going to be worth the money I pay for it.. will rent it first, but I have a feeling I will be buying this one as well!!

Why no color tho?

Also $150? No thanks

Tross2430d ago

What decade did I just walk into?

0hMyGandhi2430d ago

I think it looks quirky, absurd and utterly adorable.
But damn. 150 is not cheap for something that looks this...gimmicky.
Though, some huge names behind it, so...We'll see.

I'm Causing The Slow Death Of Gaming Magazines, And It Hurts

by Damien McFerran:
"Last week, we reported on the rather sad news that Future Publishing is closing its GamesMaster and gamesTM magazines, a pair of UK-based monthlies that, between them, have amassed an incredible 40 years of multi-format coverage. The former launched way back in 1993 (Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was reviewed in its first issue, in case you need to give that year a frame of reference) while the latter arrived just under a decade later in 2002. It carried a comparison of the PlayStation 2, Xbox and GameCube – the key machines of the era."

And it's a shame that online games journalism is so predisposed with social controversy, rather than sticking to the base subject of games, and how fun they are.

I'd prefer if more were like Game Informer and stuck to the basic elements of gaming again. So many sites I don't visit anymore and paper mags have all but died due to low sales.

It really is a travesty.

i can’t say i will be missing physical magazines, but i miss journalism, too. the quality of articles reached an alltime low.

in the past they made their money by learning the chops of the business and selling ads for their magazines. today every legasthenic is able to post a blogpost and all that counts is the clickrevenue. this mentality shows and it‘s offpushing to say the least.
