Bundle with Skyborn? That was fast.
I suggest picking it, it's not a game of forever or anything but it is a good game. I just wish they bothered to add cards, a game would have sold better without resorting to being sold in bundle a few weeks after steam release.

I will pick this bundle myself as it has one game from my wishlist, what is so nice of them.

edited: now when we got and PopCap bundle and Sega bundle, I start to believe that we will get Capcpom bundle one day!

nope, just kidding (><)

I wonder if Squeenix will do anything about Last Dream. The review the devs put up on the store page mentions the chocobos but does anybody know if they're actually named that in the game itself?

I haven't played until meeting them, but some creatures in a game are named very similar to moogles too, I don't remember exact name, but it made me think about moogles instantly (may be, they named chocobos - moogles, that would be hilarious.)
SE do anything about anybody, if they can, not sure how easy is to do their thing on steam though.

uraizen, if you read this, play that Yaiba already! I need some impressions and nobody else bought it. (><)

Motor Rock was yanked a few days after release but there was a lot of noise about it being a carbon copy of R&R Racing whereas The Last Dream seems to have, for the most part, flown under the radar.

It's an RPG maker game, most likely not particularly great either, so it can remain under the radar forever!

Is it just me or does Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z have an outrageous price?

Isn't it standard retail?
South Park is $60
Castlevania LoS2 is $60
Yaiba is $60
Titanfall is $60

Seems to fit the pattern to me.
Granted, I don't really care since I paid $24 for it on preorder.

I'm an idiot! Tried connecting a 360 controller with a play n charge usb kit!

Yeah, unfortunately, that doesn't work. You need the stupid dongle.

[Arthea]

You know, I remembered just now, that some time ago SE managed to do something against replica swords sellers, if they can do that, they surely can finish off Last Dream.

$60 is fine, 60&#8364; is not

ups double posted. anyway, $60=44&#8364;, while 60&#8364; is almost $85! If that's not ridiculous, what is?

sorry! are you on my fl? If yes I somehow missed you bought it

The reviews says Chocobos and then moas in parenthesis. What does it mean? And also over 200 achievements for an RPG Maker game?

 

[Arthea]

I hope so.

you are so evil at times (><)

I've read it has save plus feature, so probably it is ment to be played many times, in light of that, 200 ach don't look so strange.

Would like impressions too. I am now hesitant on whether to start on Normal or Hard. If the game has a New game+ like mechanic I'd start on normal then jump into hard with all my upgraded skills.

 

[JaseC]

I'd guess that even though they're clearly chocobos, to avoid legal action (or rather, in an attempt to avoid legal action), as far as Last Dream's fiction is concerned they're moas. (Or is that Moases? Or Moasi? I've no idea what the the plural form is supposed to be.)

Not evil, just pragmatic.

I don't know if I'm on your FL.
I don't even think the game is out though -- I tried to preload it last night and it didn't have the option. So you'll have to wait until the 18th, either way, I think.

I havent messed with those playfire rewards. I mean, actually playing the games? I dont play videogames...

wait, it's released on 18th, lol, I thought today for some reason. (><)

I have to say, Metro 2033 can get pretty damn tense. It's a great game.

Yaiba? It shows March 21st for me.

As I posted previously, work is kinda slowing my OT writing progress so it may be up by the time the game gets released ^^;

ya, I know it's 21st for me too (Europe), but I thought it's 14th for US (uraizen is from US), when in fact I just double checked it's on 18th, it was my mistake.

edited: Xsees forums are back, no new info on release date, though.

So, what's up with Asian region locks? can someone explain me this? I mean, I can't think of any reason why publishers would do this, unless they hate money or something, and seeing how they treat some of us (EU and AU and Japan, for example), that's not the case.

Japanese publishers are stupid dicks, they are like dicks, but they are stupid.

Even Valve has a stance against China which is a decent part of Asia.
It's all China's fault

I don't know, maybe suing and litigating Asians for pirating their games is a bigger money for them than discounting their games. Maybe its just the typical licensing crap we also get.
They just want us to pirate Games to get our fix. I still am not able to buy that Metal Gear thanks to Konami.

 

[JaseC]

Just the game, however GamersGate has one piece at 80% off ($1) and the other is free.

The problem is the east Asian countries aren't poor at all, publishers don't have to lower the game prices to gain sales like they did in Russia.

 

[Arthea]

but still that seems just silly, they region lock our games and impose ridiculous prices, why they just lock Asia out.
Piracy is an issue everywhere, not only in Asia, surely. And how locking out all region out of their games makes it any better?

To boost console version sales maybe, still very dumb though.

 

[Arthea]

Still seems silly, our games on steam already cost same or more as their console counterparts in some cases, and these being digital releases, they are cheaper by definition. Why can't they do the same for Asia?
Unless they take into account steam discounts, as console games discounts rarely match those. OTOH you can resell (or giveaway) a console game if it's physical, so they lose money, that have to make steam releases (or PC in general) worth for them.
