SWEEET. TRAILER FOR SUPER HERO GENERATIONS IS OUT!
http://youtu.be/-ydFwHWWPLo
Ok yeah, its not technically SRW, but it at least has Gundam in it. And you have to admit, this does definitely look better than Masou Kiishin F.
For those who haven't played a Generations game (the Gundam Generations games), if you didn't like the recent trend in SRW where they just send a huge barrage of enemies after you, then do yourself a favor, just stay away from this game (at least til one of us plays it to confirm) Generations games are really bad in that dept.

Ok so am I the only one that thinks its weird/hilarious that only the Gundams actually have eyes in this game, if you ignore Ultra Seven. Not to mention that it just looks really weird when the designs aren't SD.
Yeah, that's weirding me out too.
Also, currently debating this with some friends- don't really know what to call this design style. Its not SD, but its not necessarily full-sized either.

Nope. I also find it creepy, but it's probably the only way they can make it less weird having robots next to living creatures. I'm assuming the Gundams don't have pilots, but are "living" robots. Kinda like the SD Gundam cartoons.
Possibly. There's a screenshot of Gundam Unicorn "talking", as opposed to it's pilot talking.

Oh thought you guys knew.
Yeah this is like the Lost Heroes games https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkZHTAMLPJA

Oh snap this is actually a thing?! I've been thinking about how cool a sentai hero srpg would be in the style of SRT.
the game looks cool and all but as a big fan of the G gen Generation games i would rather have a new Gundam G gen game.

They're making a killing with the new G Gen in iOS.
You guys were right about being familiar with the menu after playing another game. Messing around in OG 2nd right now, and I seem to know some of the spirit abilities/how to move and attack right off the bat (same menu placement yay!) But i'm still kinda sad I dunno whats going on lol.
Also I think I need to print out some of the in depth menu translations just to be safe. At any rate, game is beautiful in action.

For the 2 and a half people who still care, exophase has the trophies for Coffin of the End. They look like the usual fare, the structure, names and icons kind of give away the routes I guess:
Will probably pick the game up for 10 bucks in 2 weeks.
Edit to make up for my laziness, here's the URL: http://www.exophase.com/game/ӟ...装機神ｆ co/trophies/
Not sure how well this will parse.
there's 2 trophies for finishing specific missions whose names sound final, one has a Granzon icon and the other a Cybuster icon. So I guess there's a Shu route and a Masaki route.

These puns are never going away as long as Masaki is around huh.

And it's always for the same trophy. They'll run out of saifu puns at some point and they'll retire the character just because of that.

Assuming it still works, I have a DLC code for Super Robot Wars HD (PS3/Vita) if anyone wants it. First to PM me gets it.

It's a fun little game. Someone should snag it.
So I wanted to redo a mission in SRW OE for some EXP, but when I did it it set my levels down by 10? So no going back to grind in missions, then?
Kinda renders Masaki useless to me, because he showed up late and now he's like, level 4 when the main party is level 15 and he's got no means of gaining XP because his odds of hitting are all 0%.
Also sorta don't like how often I miss on a 70% in this game.

I feel lame now since I managed to download it on PS3 but cant install it on my vita unless I do some profile stuff.

The best is yet to come. Namely they can finally start teasing their next game/release. Just as long as it's not a phone/mobile/downloadable game, that's all I ask for.

Speaking of their next game and in light of yesterday's pre-TGS conference, I wouldn't be too surprised if they made it PS3/4/V as upports to PS4 seem to be becoming a thing.
Not that I'd complain.

New OG game confirmed.
I wonder what everyone's reaction would be to a new SRW OG game that uses 3D but mimics 2D visuals like GGXrd does.
Lostconfused
Member
Well Masou Kishin games have already been doing this except they are sprites of pre-rendered 3D models. Instead of 3D models being rendered in real time and made to resemble 2D art style.
It could be great, it could be awful. It all depends on the execution, because they certainly half ass it with the MK stuff.

Doesn't 2ndOG already did this on Ps3?

They were still 2D sprites on a 3D background in OGs2.

I'd love that but it would have to be done the right way.
Typically, as Lostconfused pointed out, I'd hate a CG like look as in Masoukishin. And I'd see as a regression "bare" 3D (ie pretty much every SRW with 3D units so far).
Still, if they pulled a cell shaded SRW, it could be glorious. Guilty Gear Xrd, the Naruto games or Tales of Vesperia have really nailed the "real time anime in 3D" look.
I don't know how resource intensive this would be though. Then again, drawing and animating that shitload of sprites must be awful too.

This was absolutely expected. On the bright side, it will be very cheap very soon.
And hey, they might consider a Vita version to recoup their losses.

Yes. But the HD remake of SRW1 isn't.

No shit.
It went down a bit but nothing comparable to Pride of Justice.
To be fair, I had already forgotten about the game, with all the TGS action and whatnot.

Is Coffin of the End (PS3) hanging on to resale value in Japan? I haven't seen a price drop anwywhere online yet (Amazon US, ebay, AmiAmi, Play Asia, etc.).
So there's nothing SRW announced atm, right?
Wonder if we'll have to wait until December to get that Z3-2 announcement for April 2015 release or if there'll be something between now and then.
Or maybe we get the surprise announcement of 3rd OGs for April 2015 and Z3-2 gets 2 full years of development for April 2016

Count on April for Z3.2. An OGS announcement would be good too but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Is it worth getting into Masou Kishin in the first place? The DS version of MK1 were pretty much identical to the SFC version so I was willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the sequels despite how terrible it was. Yet I have never heard anyone say anything remotely positive about any of the rest of the games.
Lostconfused

In order starting with the remakes?

The first MK contains 2 parts that kind of act as bookends to Masaki's story in the main series.
It's a SFC game that was ported on DS and PSP (including JP PSN). MK2 is PSP only, MK3 is PS3/Vita and MKF is PS3 only.
It basically goes like this:
MK1 part 1 > OGs > OG Gaiden > OGs 2 (with Dark Prison alongside) > MK1 part 2 > MK2 > MK3 > MKF
If you dig around the end of last year ITT, you'll see I liked MK3. It's not incredible but it's pretty solid if you're into that particular part of the OGverse.
