A retailer is currently offering a modest discount for the pre-order of the upcoming Playstation 3 exclusive role-playing title, Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2.
So many great games, so many franchises saved by developers revisiting exactly what it is players want. Hopefully, other developers wallowing in mediocrity can look to these games as blueprints for what they should do going forward.
Oprainfall interviews the translation staff at Idea Factory International about how they tackle localization.
Michibiku's Jenni Lada writes, "Hyperdimension Neptunia is huge. It’s a massive series that covers tons of games, all of which are sort of connected? Though also not really, because quite a few are spin-offs and non-canon. It’s a lot to take in, to be sure. With Megadimension Neptunia VII on the horizon, we here at Michibiku felt like we should offer an overview of the main series’ installments."
Please don't make it all about sex appeal... -_- I heard that's how the first game was, so I stayed away from it. Why is it that anime-style things always get bogged down with unnecessary sexual innuendo and outfits?
I got the first one on release, and hated it...
Seemed like it'd be hilarious, poking fun at, and parodying, the game industry.
The gameplay was waay too boring for me, though.
Willing to give this one another shot, but only after I read a bunch of reviews.
