Support NeoGAF

[RPGCrazied]

I don't completely hate the font this time, woo.

Guess we have to wait until who knows when for Bamco to announce the LE? After like 15 leaks of it I guess?

Man, I hope the CE this time is cheaper than Xillia 2's. Dang thing was $130.

$99 is the sweet spot for CE's for me.

 

[Mifec]

I thought the Naruto games ran fine, aside from the 30fps limit because of the engine or something?

Apparently the newest one is 60. Someone on GAF told me that.

Try 40 lol

Do we know if PS4/PC versions will hit Japan?

 

[Novel Mike]

So... Anyone else want to start trying to get the PS3 version of Vesperia ported to PC? I'd help with that! XD

Now I'll have to decide if I want it on PS4 or PC... hmmm...

Let it go. Be easier to just get a 360 and the game at this point.

That white coat/vest thing makes him look a bit pudgy

 

[Jay RaR]

No.

Leave it alone.

Nonsense.

This is Neogaf, we have to believe in near hopeless possibilities.

#BELIEEEVE

I was going to get this on PS3, but fuck that noise definitely nabbing that PC version. I hope it runs 60 fps with good AA, but I hope that's not asking too much.

Spoiler

It prolly is.

 

[Suzushiiro]

If they weren't saving it for E3 why didn't they announce it at Tales Festival?

 

[Mendax]

If they weren't saving it for E3 why didn't they announce it at Tales Festival?

because that was a japanese only event. These ports are not japanese/for japan.

 

[RPGCrazied]

If they weren't saving it for E3 why didn't they announce it at Tales Festival?

As people said, PS4/PC version isn't releasing there. Plus the game is already out and has been in Japan.

 

[Hristi]

Oh God its real! I hope they port the rest too.

 

[Dandy Crocodile]

Well hooray for finally getting official confirmation on the cross platform/gen release.
I'll still be sticking with the PS3 version, though.

For those who played the import, I read some character/story spoilers and was wondering if it was true that Sorey and Mikleo

Spoiler

are loosely canonically a "couple." Or at least romantic in some sort of way instead of just being queerbait.

 

[matmanx1]

Very tempting on that PC version. I hope NB does a good job on the port and gives us some actual decent graphics options this time.

 

[Xena]

PC as well? Oh man, oh man! That's amazing news! Cannot wait! I hope the other Tales eventually make it to PC as well.

 

[kewlmyc]

Nonsense.

#BELIEEEVE

It's not about believing, it's about Vesperia begging in every single Tales thread being annoying as hell.


How have Namco Bandai been with PC ports in the past? I'm only familiar with Dark Souls and Dark Souls II, one which was god awful and the other being fantastic. Total opposite ends of the spectrum.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Going to get it for PC if the ports doesn't suck. Seems all the big Japanese games are starting to show up on PC. Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy and now Tales. Really happy to have invested in a gaming PC"

 

[Khrysler Jerikho]

Can't wait for the Alisha mods in the PC version lol

 

[Basileus777]

It's finally in the steam store. If we only could pre-order it now >.>

Hey, this lists full Japaneses audio.

 

[threelights]

Wow, what a surprise! Bamco really doing unexpected moves here.

=X, but yeah, finally a confirmation. Will be getting on PC for sure.

 

[bede-x]

Day one on PC even if it's a bad port

 

[kewlmyc]

Hey, this lists full Japaneses audio.

It's been confirmed dual audio for a few months now.

 

[Khrysler Jerikho]

Lokos liek it's October 20 for both PS4 and PC in NA: https://twitter.com/BandaiNamcoUS/status/609360760733433857

 

[Spoony Bob]

A PC version is very cool to hear. I used to love the Tales series but haven't played any since Vesperia. This came out a decent while back in Japan, right? Anyone happen to know what the general consensus is on this one? If it's worth getting, I'd definitely be getting it on PC.

 

[Zaventem]

Hope we get a decent priced steelbook versin, don't feel like doing that CE shit again.

 

[Parsnip]

Finally an actual official confirmation.
The leaks were getting ridiculous.


In for PC. I hope the port is good, they've been working on it for a good while now at least.

Also, the recommended specs on store page seem surprisingly reasonable. I wonder who's doing the port.

 

[ezodagrom]

Wasn't Naruto pretty fucked up too? It depends on who's doing the port I think. Dragon ball turned out fine since Dimps could handle it.

Naruto (both 3 and Revolution) are barebones ports, but they run fine despite the 30fps lock and easily the best version of those games.

Graphics options wise they only had resolutions options and an option for 2x SSAA, iirc.

On no, don't see PS3 on there. Is this going to not be on PS3 for NA? Just PS4/PC?

I'll probably get it on PS4.

Simultaneous release on PC and PS4 is awesome news.

 

[mr_toa]

In for the PC version

Ohh YES!

 

[Vamphuntr]

I wonder if it could show up in the Steam sale. I know the announcement is tied to E3 but the timing also works for the steam sale.

Doubtful. But the Fall or Winter sale isn't too far after.

 

[Shengar]

Tales of Zetiria for PS4 and PC and yet you don't bother releasing GE2RB in the west? smh Bamco

 

[Falk]

Day one on PC even if it's a bad port

Wow.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

I wonder how easily the game will be to mod; that'll be my deciding factor down the line.

It's a little weird how that twitter links to the facebook that seems to be a fanpage lol

Was that all? Oh, I thought I heard about more than the animations/engine making it locked to 30fps. Then again, some PC gamers do complain even if it's just that.

 

[LuuKyK]

I noticed that too. Weird indeed.

 

[Kagari]

Wow.

This should come as no surprise... over 300K people bought that shoddy FF13 port too!

 

[PhaZZe]

Thanks Namco Bandai for your games in PC

 

[Dimitri LH]

Which console to get it on.....decisions decisions.....

 

[Kain]

This should come as no surprise... over 300K people bought that shoddy FF13 port too!

Durante pls

 

[kayos90]

Expecting this game to run still pretty garbage.

Amazing use of the PS4 with those Russian subs...

 

[ezodagrom]

IIRC the online mode was broken for some months too, though I got the game and played it just for the single player, so can't comment much about the online mode.

 

[Grief.exe]

Please don't be locked to 1080p/30 FPS

 

[Nirolak]

Wow.

Almost 2 million bought the Dark Sous 1 port.

This is how we actually end up getting all these games though. Usually port quality increases over time.

 

[Stuart444]

Screenshots are of the PC version, looks better than the PS3 version already. Can't wait to see what it looks like at release

 

[Grief.exe]

I think the issues with the Dark Souls 1 port are somewhat overblown. The actual game ran just fine, fairly well optimized, and I had no crashing issues. Along with Durante's fix releasing literally within minutes of release, it wasn't all that bad.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Please don't be locked to 1080p/30 FPS

If it is I'll just save my money and time, no problem.

Spoiler

Please don't do something that stupid, Bamco.
