Playstation haters are so stupid believing that the Playstation brand is responsible for the current state of Sony. Sony does not only makes consoles, kids. It is a highly diversified multinational company that makes a wide range of products. If you read the article and follow the links provided you will realize that the reasons for Sony's losses are lack of innovative ideas in recent years, stiff competition, non-cooperative organizational culture and absence of any clear strategy for th...
Awesome intro once again! Got me pumped up for playing the games once again!
"Biggest Action Game"... so sad... It used to be "survival horror" and those were the good times. This commercialization of gaming industry and online functionality has ruined console gaming. I miss the good old 90s and early 2000s when we used to have so many genres of flagship franchises. Games in those days focused on story, gameplay, soundtrack and experience. Just listen to the soundtrack of Xenogears and Chrono Cross. Today they focus on shooting, dlc, money, shooti...
Come on bro, I cant believe that you hate Vagrant Story. I can understand the other two but Vagrant Story was awesome and is a legendary game now. Did you play it when it was released or more recently? It really makes a difference. I have often seen that many players who play a game long after it was released do not like it.
Thanks for explaining it to Larry. I was just going to reply that all three of the games mentioned by him were by the same team and set within the same universe. All of the fans already knew that and it isn't a mystery.
Has anyone noted that it looks more like a sequel to Vagrant Story than FFXII? Even the writing style of Valiant Saga and the premise is similar to Vagrant Story. The T in Valiant is written just like the T in Vagrant. If this is true then, well... I WILL BE DAMNED!
Isnt this game taking too much time?? SE announced it in 2010 and said that it had been in development for the past two years. It is 2012 now and the game is still not coming. Another similar game is Ninja Theory's DmC. That game got announced in 2010 as well and wee still do not have a release date.
These numbers are from March. The fiscal year for Sony ended on March 2012 so it does not includes sales for April or may. VGchartz on the other hand constantly updates sales each week. Thus the difference.
Even though vgchartz may not be completely reliable, it can help you get a general idea of teh situation so I will use it. According to VGchartz NG3 sold only 210,000 COMBINED FOR XBOX360 and PS3! How is that strong!???
I really wanted to play this game. Noctis looked cool and using his multiple swords simultaneously would have been awesome. However, it looks like this game is turning into the next Duke Nukem Forever. I wonder if it will ever come out. Six years is a very long time for a game to be in development. Moreover such a long time of development for any game almost guarantees that it will be disappointing. Customers' attitudes and tastes change over time. In such cases the graphics and gameplay ...

Here is another fan of FFVIII. I LOVE IT! Check my name. :-)
The hate isn't just about the character model. The hate is actually about the westernization of the franchise, discontinuing the story and abandoning the old Gothic feel of the franchise
HOT!
Those... "THINGS" are babes!?. Except for a couple of them ( who are just average), all of them are she-males! Damn they are fugly!
It is nice to see a JRPG getting a good review. Really miss the good JRPGs that used to be made.
Cool! I cannot wait for this game. I hope they announce an English version
Come one guys. Try to understand. Do you want the Mass Effect series to sell in japan or not? Each culture has it's differences and standards of beauty. Just like to many people in the west, Japanese video game character seem androgynous; the western game characters seem ugly to us who live in the east. For us the western women look like men and men look like ugly monsters. In our part of the world a tiny nose, mouth and large eyes are definition of feminine beauty. It all comes down to c...
I find the game very interesting. It's name always brings a smile to my face. It seems it might be fun to play. Besides, Juliet is HOT!
What about deaths of Jin Uzuki from Xenosaga Episode 3 and Boss from MGS3 Snake Eater. They were really depressing. After seeing the death of Jin Uzuki and KOSMOS I could not forget the tragedy for days. I was so depressed seeing my dear character die like that.
Man, I wish this game just gets released as soon as possible so we can get this over with. Initially everyone was hating it but now the fans are divided into two sides. The original fans of DMC are still angry including me but the newer kids who started gaming maybe in the last half of the last decade are just fine with it. It is very hard to make these kids understand what is wrong with the series or the gaming industry as a whole these days. They opened their eyes in the COD era of shooting...
