Nightmare Mode remembers Septerra Core, a forgotten old-school PC RPG with a Japanese RPG twist and an incredible setting. Another one's not coming, but join them in remembering one of the oddest games ever (and not just because it loosed Steve "Master Chief" Downes on the world.
The PC has a wealth of great Role Playing Games, but when it comes to Japanese imports - well you really need to look hard to find something decent.
Kat Bailey: In my drawer is an unopened copy of Muramasa: The Demon Blade. Having really enjoyed it at E3, I made a point to pick up a copy for myself, then proceed to completely forget about it following a trip to Japan. It's still there, waiting for me to finally start clearing out my backlog.
Umm. Muramasa: The Demon Blade was actually made by Japanese developers, Vanillaware.
Good Old Games announced today that they've added Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator to their digital games store. The 1999 role-playing game is now available for $5.99.
I remember this game!
