To be fair though the August update does look pretty shit.
Also, when was Yakuza 5 on there? I'm not sure if I downloaded that.
I'd be interested to see corresponding sales numbers as well, because I'd wager my left nut on them decreasing also.
On the flip side, a game that was shameless in its showing off tits n ass (the newDead or Alive Extreme) has seen an increase in sales from the previous iteration. So anyone saying T&A doesn't sell can eat my ass.
@FamilyGuy Ah, I think that's another stipulation actually, that they're not allowed to have sex. They have to remain pure for.... whatever reason.
I remember there was a female idol from an idol group (I think it may have been AKB48) who apparently was discovered to be having a relationship. Anyway when she was found out she shaved her head as a show of apology. I think it was only last year or the year before this happened, so it wasn't long ago.
It's bonke...
"B-but we're not trying to take your games away!"- SJWs
Oh, also. Kaleb, I'm going to by multiple copies of both of these games just for you.
Wait.... What's a pastafarian?
"Sharticles". I like that. I think I'll use that from now on.
You assume that those PS4 sales automatically equal "neo" sales. I personally can't see either new system selling all that well. For my part, once I'm done with PS4 (launch model, still works perfectly fine) I'm switching back to PC. If I'm going to be expected to upgrade my hardware every couple of years I'd rather do it with a system that I can get the most benefit out of doing so and I just can't see any potential benefit from releasing these two new syste...
@Cobra951 I meant all of the restrictions that are put on them. Imagine being told that you're not allowed to date or get married or you'll lose your job. It's pretty fucked up man.
Idols have it rough man, whether they be female or male.
I was more surprised to learn that he's 41 though, when I saw the thumbnail I thought he was in his 20s :/
Huh so it's a VN? I'm interested, though I wouldn't have thought it would have got a release outside of Japan.
I see mobile casuals use the excuse of not having to carry around more than one device quite often. Then in the same breath defend mobiles by saying "well you can just buy a bluetooth controller if you don't like the touch screen", due to the fact that touchscreens are utterly terrible for proper gaming. So you're already carrying around extra hardware anyway. That's not to mention the fact that you'll be carrying your charger around anyway because mobile batteries a...
Square Unix?
They'll never announce it at e3 either, like a lot of people thought they were going to this year for some reason.
Rockstar haven't been to an e3 in.... actually I don't think they've ever been to an e3, at least not in recent memory. Or at least not since they became Rockstar, they may have gone to one as DMA, but I don't remember.
Their parent company (Take Two) does show up from time to time though.
If you can afford to pay $500 on a mobile phone every year, you can afford the $100 or so for a 3DS. Hell, even less for a 2DS.
Don't be so entitled.
Holy Jesus, are western devs incapable of making attractive female characters now. She's ugly as sin.
Been bloody years since I watched it, though I do remember enjoying it and the (anime) films.
Not sure how it would work out in game form though, a lot of games based on anime come in the form of visual novels as VN are the only appropriate genre to get the story across.... Well, RPGs sometimes work too.
Then again wasn't there a couple GitS games on PS2? Did they ever get a western release?
You know, I'm really surprised kotaku hasn't thrown a shitfit over nutakus name being fairly similar.
Then again, I suppose they have other things to worry about. Like finding new jobs.
GameHi owned by Nexon, a South Korean company.
Before I even clicked, I thought "I bet they're Korean".
For those not in the know, South Korea has some very backwards laws on pornography and other sexual material (or what can be considered sexual material at the whim of the government).
From what I've heard you can get a longer jail term for possession of porn than you do for rape over there (you also get put on a sex offenders register).
There was a government funded inquiry done in the UK a few years ago that came to the conclusion that games do not cause violence.
I remember at the time the clickbait rags such as kotaku and their ilk were running stories along the lines of "SEE WE TOLD YOU GAMES DON'T CAUSE VIOLENCE!" while running articles on the same page blaming games for sexism. It's hypocrisy at it's finest mate.
Yeah and we all know it will be getting used only for homebrew.
