From the article, "Atlus used to be our go-to company. When it came to a hot Japanese game, we would know in our hearts that Atlus would be there. Yet suddenly, in the span of a few years, XSEED Games is the company that we can really trust. While Atlus has stepped back and played things safe, primarily localizing Japanese games from its own development studio, cutting back on other localizations and publishing generic and less-than-impressive games like Rock of Ages and the forthcoming God Mode, XSEED is blazing a trail and testing its boundaries. XSEED has gone from publishing niche games like KORG DS-10, Flower, Sun and Rain, and Half-Minute Hero to providing the kinds of games that change people’s lives, like The Last Story and the entire Ys catalog."
Killer is Dead arrived a decade ago, and despite not receiving a sequel stands-up as a unique work from SUDA 51.
Goichi Suda (Aka Suda 51) is a peerless developer, renowned for the making of some of the most unique games. Here are the best ones to date.
Peerless?
I’ve always heard his games have repetitive portions. I appreciate unique and creative games, but repetition dilutes even the greatest games (ie Arkham Asylum).
Shadows of the damned was pretty wild. That and lollipop chainsaw are the only ones ive played but I’d give it to SoTD.
It has been 10 years since Xenoblade arrived in the US, we look back at how the game almost never showed up if not for a group of dedicated fans.
I wish The Last Story would make a comeback.I played it years before I got around to Xenoblade. Mainly because of the scalping going on because of Xeno's limited run. It took me a few tries to get into it but once I did I couldn't put it down. A Wii hidden gem for sure.
As much as I love Xenoblade, Last Story was the better game IMO. I wish Nintendo would remaster or simply port the game onto the Switch.
I wish the Last Story get a Switch remaster or remake. That game deserves a second chance
*twitch* Ys, must have... Ys...
Man, I love Xseed.
Namco needs them to localize there tales since there not going to do it. They just care about the money then the fans.
It would have been nice to have a point-form list of what they're publishing in 2013.
I have to be pretty thankful to these guys. Without them I wouldn't have experienced the exquisite Last Story and I wouldn't get to try out Pandora's Tower. I hope they continue to be successful in their endeavors.
Ys is fantastic time to slay thousands of monsters again
Adol mass murderer xD
