Namdai would have to give them the rights. And if Graces did well here, they'd have egg on their face, so to speak.
Sounds like a fun game. :)
Maybe thirteen minus 2? :p
I bet the thirteen people who don't have a PS3 but have a Xbox 360 and are JRPG fans in Japan are really happy right now. *laughs*
@mastiffchild: Yeah, if it was true that they already voiced all the new stuff it doesn't make any sense why it'd be held back.
You're losing money that way (since they'd likely already have the promotional material done in that case). They don't like to advertise that much so that cost wouldn't add up to that much.
Not saying they can't reuse everything, but some scenes would be changed due to adding in Flynn/Patty. Plus the newly-voiced scenes and the changed skits.
@silvacrest: Vesperia 360 was around the time Namdai started putting mothership titles everywhere, so I guess they hadn't gotten enough data to realize it was a bad move.
The basic premise of the article was showing that Namdai is moving back to having the series on the PlayStation brand instead of spreading it out to everyone.
As for your question, this is possibly a good sign for the series (since they don't have to have the Western releases go every which way), but they haven't stated any localization plans.
IIRC, they partially did it because Microsoft was giving them dev kits earlier than Sony was, plus they probably got some money to have a temporary exclusive release.
Also probably helped jump start their PS3 development tools I'd imagine.
It's amazing how good some of the downloadable games are this gen.
I really liked this game's art style. Hopefully the game sells well for them.
Epic Muscle March picture is epic. :p
Have to say I got a good laugh out of the old person talk in this article. xd
Have to go all out in Vegas. ;)
I had no idea there was a LotR MMO.
Yeah, that's for sure.
Hopefully they don't "burn" out of making them.
Looks like the dog didn't have his day.
It'll be interesting to see how Bungie's final Halo game turns out.
Should be interesting to see how well the game does.
