Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg comments on what it would take to bring back Guitar Hero.
Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.
This could be fun as they make great tables. Go big or go extinct. Prime your senses for a neural handshake and step into the cockpit of a Jaeger. It is on you to cancel the apocalypse when Pacific Rim Pinball comes to Pinball FX on May 16.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
WHERE MY DIABLO 3 GOLD BOBBY KOTICK ???????????
ha!
"Guitar Hero used to be a yearly thing for Activision"
Umm, no. At first it was, but after Guitar Hero 3 (which is by far my favorite), they started doing 2 a year. And then come 2009 or so, and early 2010, they had between 3 and 5 in a single year. That's what killed the franchise. I would love to see the series come back, but it needs to be toned down a SHIT load. One a year is fine, but I would prefer to see 1 every 2 years, and with each game, just release songs as cheap DLC like Rock Band does. That's why Rock Band doesn't have nearly as many games as Guitar Hero, they kept releasing songs for one game, and it's still successful today as Rock Band Network. That's the correct way to go about it. Sport game developers should take note of this, and just update rosters every year for like 10 dollar DLC, but of course they will never do that.
they killed the genre giving the people a poor product and now they are talking about maybe doing it again?!?!?!
Wow that would kinda be a shocker if they return.
