Btw, I'm more than 200 hours only on FFX. I haven't even touched X-2 yet :)

I know that FFX-2 is a nightmare to plat without a guide. i'm thinking about just a simple play through first and then going for the platinum next year. Haven't decided yet.

Plan B: Go for Platinum next year but forget all about it.
 
So I beat P3P (like 3 years after starting it)

Holy shit. Nyx is just like "this isn't even my final form". I must have spent at least an hour and a half fighting it. Goddamn I almost had a heart attack when it got me down to like 80 health once. I was very very confused when I didn't die. Turns out that's what the answer is for D: Currently just watching all the cutscenes stitched together on youtube. Also, FemMC is best MC.
 
Good game

What a mess:



This really is going to be an E3 announcement isn't it?

I said it a few pages ago, but in Europe they bundle the Vita with almost every retail game that is released.

What double post? I accidentally do double posts all the time :V

It's a joke. Killa's first month was full of double/triple posts, he climbed to one of the top3 spots in the wall of shame so we started making joked about it. Don't you remember? :P

how bad is Mind=0 exactly? Obviously it's not anywhere near the level of Persona, but is it enjoyable at all?

If you want a dungeon crawler, people will recommend you Demon Gaze over Mind Zero.
 
Idk where else to post this but something is really pissing me off with my auto save upload on PS4. Whenever I turn it on, after I had played Child of Light, it keeps telling me my save data failed to upload and thus I have to upload it manually. Has anyone had this issue or resolved it?

Are the dlc for Muramasa worth it? It just adds a couple of hours of gameplay?
Click to expand...

Each DLC have two endings. The first you get by playing the DLC story (with around three bosses). The second by beating all of momo's and kisuke's bosses, then beating the dlc final boss again.

So it depends on how long you take to get the second ending (and if you feel like doing it).

I say they're worth it. There's some fresh gameplay on then.
 
I doubt anyone would've noticed since it's quite obscure, but has Maken Shao been pulled from the EU PSN store? I know I certainly can't find it. :/
 
wtf it IS showing up on the french Belgian PSN Store, it's only absent on the dutch one.

That's got to be a mistake. :/

Anyone know when this will be released.

I wouldn't be surprised if it got cancelled.

No offence to Heavenly Sword fans, but I'm not sure what their mindset was when authorising the go-ahead for that movie. Decisions like that give credence to why Sony is losing money.

Ratchet & Clank movie makes sense, they can market that really well to kids and adults alike. I think people will be surprised by how well that movie will do.
 
I've just beaten first boss in Demon's Souls!

I've advanced a little through the next area, but my ass got kicked after 20 minutes or so. Bad luck, mostly :)

I was alive for a while, but now I'm again into the spirit form. The blood I left where I died (while on my body) disapears if I die while in spirit form again or stays there so I can reclaim my body?

I agree. R&C could sell because of nostalgia to old fans and kids due to its aethestic and a funny script. Hope Insomniac is involved, I like their sense of humour and the crazy stuff they can do when they're inspired.

I'd try to convince my friends to watch it if it's any decent xD

Your avatar is Sansa for Game of Thrones?

Sony isn't making those movies. Even if they were, Heavenly Sword was animated in China, so it's probably got a small budget.

any news about next month IGC ?

On the blog, Fred said it'll be announced next week around Wednesday or Thursday. It's always in the last week of the month now, which I think is better. This is regarding the EU Plus update, sorry, I have no idea how the US blog works.

First boss is quite easy and is weak to fire if I remember correctly.

I'm having trouble making Destiny of Spirits to work. I'm from Asia and I use a US account. So the problem is that when the game automatically updates at the beginning, it always has a network connection error. This is my first time playing it. Any ideas?
 
I still believe in something at this E3 for the Vita.

My dream?

Diablo 3 with or without Reaper of Souls for the Vita. Believe.







Never gonna happen, though

Yeah. It's a core surrounded by those weird black things with a shield and a spear (they can throw the latter). The room has a lot of columns where you can cover and eat some herbs, I kept moving protected by my shield and attacking those weird things from behind until there weren't so many adds and I could start attacking the core.

Some tips for the next few stages would be to invest in a good bow. Either that or magic cause they are both OP.

Why doesn't Umineko no Naku Koro ni have an English release? That series would work great on the Vita.

There's a Japanese release?

Do they use PC assets? If they do then my guess would be because of the art style. They need to update it.

The company Alchemist redid all the assets in the Japanese release for PS3/PSP. The characters look far better than their original PC counter parts.

Also just saw this: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/project-giana/dieselstormers

And the page confirms it's coming to PS4!

Honestly, the entire game of FFX-2 is like one big love letter to FFX fans, I'm not sure how much it would stand alone as a game to someone who hasn't played FFX, no matter what they watched. X-2 is all about seeing characters from X again in the future and small references all over the place, which you could only get by playing X. That said, the combat and dressphere system is still really fun, but I really don't know if I could wholeheartedly recommend the game to someone who hasn't played X yet, even though I adore X-2. (If you've already played X and are just looking for a refresher and I misunderstood, sorry for wasting your time!)

Edit: To answer your second question, pretty much every entry in the FF series has different combat unique to that game, so you can start anywhere and be fine. This even applies with X and X-2, they have radically different gameplay systems. Though again, I don't think I could recommend X-2 to someone who hasn't played X first and is new-ish to the FF series.

Second Edit: Hmm, you already have the X-2 code. I thought there was a way to buy X separately but it appears there isn't, so unless you still have access to a PS2 I guess there is no way you could actually play X without rebuying X-2. So I guess my post was pretty useless, as you can't really play the games in order without wasting money.
 
Watch_Dogs
Platforms: PS4, PS3
Format: Digital and retail
Crossbuy: *laughs*
Price: $59.99 (no digital discount)

Originally scheduled for release last year, this free-roaming, third-person criminal activity simulator allows you to exploit a networked world for fun and profit. This is the big release for the month, but I suspect many have seen their enthusiam cool a great deal since its original next/current-gen debut at Sony's PS4 event in February 2013. I know I'm not nearly as gung-ho as I was back then. If I get some good recommendations from people I trust, then perhaps I'll be back on the bandwagon.

The Sly Cooper Collection for PS Vita
Platforms: PSV (duh), previously released on the PS3
Format: Digital and retail
Crossbuy: I'm going with "no" (but EU people got it crossbuy, so it's nasty)
Price: $29.99 (estimating no digital discount)

Did you like Sly Cooper on the PS2? Then you can now fulfill your desire to play those original platforming games, starring the master thief Sly the Raccoon and his band of friends, on a small, portable screen. As I recall, this is a pretty good port (although it isn't as favored a the PS3 version), but you have to want to play previous-previous-gen games with almost all of the retrograde design of that era. As I've said many times before, nostalgia is poison, so I recommend you find something new to spend your money on.

Lemmings Touch
Platforms: PSV
Format: Digital only
Crossbuy: N/A
Price: Estimated at $14.99

I was shocked at how long ago this was announced: September 2013. Who knew it would take this long to get to market? I kind of wonder if this isn't a sign of how low-energy some of Sony's team is on PSV stuff. Anyway, if you've ever played the classic Lemmings games, the idea is to get lemmings (mindless creatures) from an entrance to an exit by providing them with various jobs and devices to help them out. This version adds touch controls for the PSV screen, and has scores of levels in a variety of themed environments.

Mind Zero (or MIND≒0)
Platforms: PSV
Format: Digital and retail
Crossbuy: N/A
Price: $39.99 (no digital discount)

This is another Japanese role-playing game brought to the U.S. by Aksys. It was originally released in Japan in August 2013, and is now coming to the NA and EU territories. You play a high school student who forms a mental link with some sort of other intelligence which gives him extraordinary powers. The story takes place in two differenet worlds, the real one and a fantasy (crazy) one. The game is described as a dungeon-crawler, so expect to crawl ... through dungeons.

Monster Monopiece
Platforms: PSV
Format: Digital only
Crossbuy: N/A
Price: $29.99 (so says Takao)

This is a ... um ... card battle ... um ... game with monster ... uh ... girls. Sorry, I keep looking at this GIF and getting distracted. What the hell, people?

Ace Combat Infinity
Platforms: PS3
Format: Digital only
Crossbuy: N/A
Price: Free for large values of free

The Ace Combat series has had its ups (Ace Combat 04) and downs (Ace Combat: Assault Horizon), but its always been kind of fun even when it's been down. You fly sorties in tricked-out jets, and this time it's free -- provided you don't shell out for the F2P goodies. The last few things I read in the main thread here on GAF suggested that perhaps it wasn't as exploitative as it could be, but until it has what is effectively an infinite play option, I'm going to try to hold back.

_______________________________________________________

I sure would drop $10 on Ace Combat 04, even if it would be some of that nostalgia poison. :( Dangit.

Also, where are all the new tables for Pinball Arcade PS3/4/V? :(

I got a bow from a enemy drop before. Don't remember the name. But yeah, I've discovered I'd need it. I need to buy some arrows. I'm relieved I can have my Shield / Bow + Sword/Spear equipped. So far the spear has proven to be a great weapon to deal with human enemies. And it's quite good with those fucking dogs (or wolfs I dunno).
