Engadget reviews the new "Super Slim" 2012 PlayStation 3.
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.
On Amazon, you can't get an RTX 4090 for less than this one from Gigabyte, which now offers great value after an eye-catching April deal.
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.
What a bunch of tools.
Having a glossy exterior finish as one of the main cons really?
I wonder if they have that as a con for all major cell phones as well.
160GB PS3 is not linux compatible lol
Credit is due to Sony for making a slimmer ps3(which we never knew would be possible).Im waiting for the so caled 12gb ps3.They say it would be cheaper.If its cheap then my guess is everyone will have a chance to own a ps3.
i really want this new model.. I like its size & simplicity.. I just wish the US would get the 16GB model so i can just upgrade it myself.. Buying another $300 console is pointless if im going to discard the 250GB HDD it comes with.. 750GB from amazon & a 16GBflash memory PS3 super slim model would be a nice treat but doesnt look like thats happening this year.. Oh well, i dont need it cuz i have the mid & phat already.. i just like new system models & my living room needs the best of the best sitting there.. ill move the phat into my bedroom & sell the mid version or give it to a relative..
Im curious to see what ppl choose this holiday season.. i know the wii u will sell out cuz of their sales tactics putting out limited quantities but can this slim attract more customers? it has so many great games out & incoming.. not to mention its features & psn.. we will see i guess.. i want nintendo to succeed in attracting the core audience but with all ports & very few AAA new IPs, its going to be tough to convince ppl who arent fans..
It does look cheap imo, but I guess that's kind of the point.
My 160GB beast of a Netflix player is still going strong.
