Ah alright. Color me disappointed. I was hoping for a new FF7 universe game to tell us what happens to Genesis.
Being realistic I hope it's another game in the FF7 universe to wrap up the story arc with Genesis from Crisis Core. I never played Dirge of Cerberus or watched Advent Children entirely, but I don't believe he's in those is he? So figuring out what happens to him after Crisis Core wraps up would be a great fan please. I'm totally up for a Crisis Core 2 or something along those lines. :)
Edit: Just remembered the secret ending for Dirge of Cerberus has Genesis in it. Maybe it'll ...
I'd have to disagree to be honest. Blazblue is the only fighting game I can think of that is geared for both the hardcore and the casual player. If you are casual you can just do private matches to play with easy mode controls via the right stick to do combos for you. It still gives you exp so you can still rank up even if you are in private matches, but of course ranked will give you more exp at the expense of having to know more combos and do more button inputs.
The offline has...
Maybe they should stick to what they know. If the past KoF games were known for the SP and offline fun, then why does this one lack it? They don't even have a cancel selection option when you are picking characters, so if you play locally with a buddy and want to change your mind TOO BAD!
Don't even try to protect this game. I own it and I am playing it, because I want my moneys worth. Yes the game is great if you can find a non broken online match, but I can safely say that is ...
I got the PS3 version for the Clan feature. That appeals to me more than some ranking boards. To each his own though. Exclusive features though still haven't fixed the broken laggy online. :(
You're right it deserves less of a score than it got. Gametrailers was being generous.
The online is laggy. So laggy it stops mid fights sometimes to resync the fight. No excuse for that. There's only 1 offline mode to occupy time with and it honestly isn't that interesting after you do it once or twice.
Only what 6 maps or is it 5? 4 character colors per character. Balance issues amongst characters that are easily noteable. Collision detection issues.(I've had Andy...
It's just tough to get consumers to pay for 20 hours or less games without multiplayer or real replay value. That's just how I assume the world works right now.
I agree not every game needs multiplayer, but very few go to sell many copies when that's the case. RPGs have more than 50hours of gameplay fairly often and the sales hold up great when you take world wide numbers, but a non RPG needs to be something really special for people to get it. Bioshock and Deadspace are two game...
I prefer the art style and play of what I've seen of Devil Survivor for DS more than this. Either way though seems the PSP and DS keep raking in on a plethora of great RPG titles. Wish the big 3 would follow up the portables strong presence with their own. :(
Finally! Multiplayer information and it being shown off. I knew before they said a thing that the single player would be great, but I don't buy FPS' for their storylines lol. I rent them for that and buy them for insane multiplayer.
This trailer made me more leaning towards possibly buying it, but again that will depend on if they really push the sequel to new heights and not just cash in on something that was successful first time around.
If they said the game will...
I've posted my thoughts on KoF12 in several places here on N4G in great detail. Most of these reviews aren't hitting on what people who would want to buy it need to know, so for anyone interested try checking my comment history to find them as it is pretty recent.
Sum up without much detail:
Online is broken
Offline content is missing
Character balance issues a plenty
5 battle arenas
4 character colors per character
A total of maybe 6-7 soundtr...
I actually like Hope as a character the most so far. I don't like his weapon is a boomerang, but his art design and voice actor for both USA/Japan is rock solid.
Snow would've been great if his name wasn't Snow...
Wow. This was honestly the only 360 exclusive I planned to buy this year if the reviews held it 8+ from big name sites. So many games I was just thinking of renting are now possible buys for me with this news.
Uncharted 2(buy)
MAG(If reviews hold up to 8+ then buy)
Modern Warfare 2(If the online isn't just more of the same with dedicated servers then buy)
Persona for PSP(buy)
The games I was going to rent list is smaller now too since Bayonetta got ...
Breath of Fire
Chrono Game
Zelda(Time to step up the story. Voice acting etc)
Brave Fencer Musashi
Legend of Dragoon
Mana series
Wild Arms
Tales of Series(Time to go back to the drawing board a bit on how the world map works, and maybe make the battles be full 3D environments like Star Ocean)
Dark Cloud
Super Mario(The series is still fun, but by no means are they day 1 buys f...
The game just didn't bring enough to the table when stacked up against competitors or heck even its prequels.
The only offline mode is Arcade. It's fast, easy, and the replay value is small unless you really want trophies/achivements for beating it faster. No other offline game types is a big deal to someone like myself who enjoy stories, score attack modes, and survivals.
I didn't read his full review, but did he say the online doesn't suck? If that's for the 360 v...
Just a general heads up warning if anyone reads what I'm about to say.
KoF12...sucks.
I bought it day of release for my PS3 and have been playing it up to just about an hour ago today, and I cannot recommend this game for a buy. I do recommend renting it if you are interested to see how you perceive it, but there is too much wrong and it lacks content to keep it above SF4 or Blazblue by a long shot.
If anyone wants me to honestly elaborate my experience ...
Persona 4 is a master piece of gaming on every level. Honestly a nicer coat of paint with HD graphics wouldn't have made it much more stellar than it already is. People who missed out on this one need to hunt down a friends PS2 if they don't have one and try it.
It wins the highest in the department of immersion. You start to feel a genuine bond and caring between you and some of the characters within the game. Nanako + me = Mad love.(not the perv kind either...)
I ...
The last pic is the saddest, because if you can afford 800 SDTVs then why not break out for 1 great HDTV already.
Weird that I've seen Qore, but never thought she was actually a legit gamer. After reading her fav games and such, and then showing off her exploits in them I think I can safely say this is the only good looking chick that actually games who is in the spotlight.
No Morgan Webb sucks at games. Cliffy B even made fun of her for it. Heck she almost blatantly admits off and on that if it isn't casual friendly then Webb will suck at it or pass on it entirely.
Olivia Munn ...
90 bucks could get me 3 PSP games, 10 or so PS2 games, 1 brand new game for PS3 or 360 + 30 extra bucks to get 1 PSP or DS game.
1 Game that won't be worth any hype OR a plethora of games...hmmm which would I go for lol.
Even if MW2 comes out at 40 dollars USA I'm still not buying it until they tell me something about multiplayer. I don't want more of the same...I want an evolution and learning from other games of the genre with what made it good. If they add dedicat...
Sorry to break your theory, but it's already been proven this new teaser site is for Lords of Vermillion. A card game. What platform it will be on and such is undetermined, but the guess work is done.
We'll have to wait longer to figure out what happens next to Genesis.
