Disgaea 3 gets Trophy Patch + Home Rewards

Nippon Ichi Software released a patch in Japan that adds 50 trophies and Home Rewards to Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice. Getting them is going to be a challenge. One trophy is awarded after dealing over 10 billion damage and another is given after a Counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-attack. That's ten counter attacks in a row. After you earn a trophy you also get a Prinny trophy of the corresponding color to place in your PlayStation Home space.

No word if NIS America will add this patch here, but they are playing with adding trophies to Cross Edge so…

Even as a huge Disgaea fan I must admit that this is friggin' ridiculous.

Marona6269d ago (Edited 6269d ago )

I concur, for the starters it will be a challenge for the dozens/hundreds of hours until some trophies get unlocked. Once the NA get's the patch I'll start over instead, looking forward to this.

Godmars2906269d ago

But then, neither am I.

I've yet to break 100K damage. But for in-Home swag, I just might start trying.

SaiyanFury6269d ago

I feel your pain. I like JSRPGs, but the Disgaea series is only for the hardcore of the hardcore. I got the game back in September of 08, and I was never able to figure out everything. People who knew the game were able to level up fast and take advantage of it. I have 180+ hours and I was never able to figure out how to effectively level up. The best level I got to was 85 just from sheer grinding. If I could've figured out the game better I know I would have done better.

Bebedora6269d ago

I agree it is hard to know the ins and outs of this series. Where's the FM? A more complete manual for the novice would be nice.

But I seriously hope I don't have to make a new save file just for these trophies. I spent too much time powering up my characters and items. So I hope the trophies are retroactive because there is no flippin way I'm doing all that powering up again from scratch on a new save file.

Also, as cool as this is, some of those trophies are INSANELY hard even for the most avid nippon ichi fan.

- Ghost of Sparta -6269d ago (Edited 6269d ago )

How many PS3 games were patched up with retroactive trophies? None. It sucks that I have to start over but I quit playing Disgaea 3 after I reached Chapter 4 for this reason. 'Cause I knew trophies would come and I'd have to create a new file. Same goes for Valkyria Chronicles. I'd rather wait.

Rmagnus6269d ago

ya i can't think of many games if any that has retroactive trophies but i did enjoy playing D3 alot and since i only spent like 60 hours into it, its not a big deal.... i guess..... wait.... I need to spend another 60 hrs just to get to where i am now...... Well for the trophies!!!

Godmars2906269d ago

You'll probably just need to do the damage, meet requirements with existing characters after you get trophies.

cLiCK_sLiCK96269d ago

Im pretty sure Warhawk's trophies were retroactive.

Alex_Mexico6269d ago

You got that right. Warhawk was retroactive!

I think its time I return to Disgaea again

Wildarmsjecht6269d ago

YES. OMG YES. I want to crack my case open again right now...but I'm waiting..waiting for the trophies...good god I love NiS.

LeGenDx6269d ago

i probably wont get plat but ill get most of them

DirectX 12 RPCS3 PS3 Emulator - New Video Shows Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice Running In Full Speed

The DX12 version of the most promising Playstation 3 emulator, RPCS3, seems to be progressing nicely. YouTube’s ‘John GodGames’ has shared a new video, showing Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice running in full speed.

It is awesome indeed. I wanna see if the emulator will be able to handle The Last Of Us or God Of War 3. And GTX 970 is a beasty card, not as beast at a Titan X or 980 ti but its still a damn good card.

I wonder what will be the minimum req for the emu.

Hoffmann3809d ago

Just spoke with a friend about it via twitter (I am @GameArtHq btw.)

Hope the emulator is able to play D3 at full speed completely in a year maybe. I have that game on PS3 but you know, Disgaea games are just perfect to play when I make a pause from my website work for a couple of minutes. I also wonder if it might be possible to pirate that old $50 DLC for D3. Would love to do that, except they will release D3 for PC anyway and include the dlc

xfiles20993809d ago

Geez buy a PS3 and the games you cheap bastards lol

DarkOcelet3809d ago

@xfiles2099

I already have a PS3 and i already own the games i wanted to play :/

I want the emu because of the features that could be included like MSAA, 60FPS, Higher Resolution etc etc etc.

Crimzon3809d ago

What about people who have a lot of digital PS3 purchases but don't want to have a PS3 hooked-up to their TV forever? I've already paid for the games, so I don't see what's cheap about running them via emulator on PC so that I don't have to have a whole bunch of video game consoles sat underneath my TV.

The same goes for older gen games for SNES, PS2 & GameCube etc. because there's no way I was going to keep those consoles lying around forever, but occasionally I feel like revisiting F-Zero GX, Killer 7 or Yoshi's Island etc. I swear the people who have mountains of consoles and games laying around must still be living in their mothers basement or something.

BattleAxe3809d ago

So if some guy in his basement can emulate PS3 games on a PC, why can't we get Sony and their army of Engineers to do this on PS4?

Congratulations on waiting years to play these games! Let alone the true AAA exclusives :)

MadLad3809d ago

Why do people think PC gamers don't already have consoles?
We just enjoy the idea of owning the superior versions of almost any game we play.

Emulation allows for that in a world where people are paying premiums for digital versions of games they own, let alone remasters that don't even offer what emulation does.

Don't worry about us. We pay, like, 5 grand for our rigs or something. We can certainly afford these consoles and the handful of games they offer.

SunnyZ3809d ago

Hopefully one day I will be able to play Red Dead Redemption!

Hoffmann3809d ago

You could always just buy a PS3 and the game though. What prevents you from doing it now?

ARESWARLORD3809d ago

That's amazing the future looks bright for PC gaming

ARESWARLORD3809d ago

And before the naysayers start yapping I already own a ps3

Hoffmann3809d ago

Let's paint our PC's like a golden calb and dance around them already ;)

Gwiz3809d ago

Some games will be difficult to emulate,i highly doubt this means you're going to get GoWIII at decent FR as PS2 games are equally difficult to emulate.
I expected this to happen years ago,but when really analyzing the inner working of a PS3 it's very unlikely you can emulate this on a mid range PC.

Crimzon3809d ago

When PS2 emulation just began it required incredibly powerful hardware because there was zero optimization.

As time went by and it was optimized however, the requirements for running the emulator went down fast. The same will happen with PS3 and 360 emulation as the developers of the emulators gradually figure out how to make it run more efficiently. Bear in mind a mid-range PC these days is absolutely lightyears ahead of the PS3, once things are optimized they'll be able to handle PS3 emulation easily.

Gwiz3809d ago

There is a difference between the 360 and PS3,not to mention me saying decent FR.The SPE's in a PS3 operate in a very unconventional way just like the PS2's multi processor does.

They're able to run,yes.... But it's far from optimal even with PS2 games.

Crimzon3809d ago

Dude you can emulate PS2 games on a toaster at this point lol. Most people jack the resolutions and framerates up higher than they ever were originally and even add in higher-res textures and ENB effects on top, far surpassing what the PS2 hardware was ever capable of.

Seriously, I know some people have some weird pride about the PS3 architecture and how unconventional it is but you're kidding yourself if you don't think PCs will be able to emulate it just fine once development progresses on the emulator and things are optimized.

I3loggs243809d ago

The reason why this is happening now and not years ago, is because of the capabilities of DX12, give it 6 more months and i bet we will have Gears of War running at 1440p @ 60fps.

rainslacker3809d ago

This is a pretty good start though. The PS2 and PS1 emulators weren't this far along this early. Power requirements are beefy, but I give props to the people making the emulator making it work as well as they have to date.

It takes time though. Lots of nuances have to be accounted for, and sometimes those aren't even known until someone tries a game in it and runs across them.
