Valkyria Chronicles 3 is The Best Game Of the Series

Kotaku - From the moment I laid eyes on the first Valkyria Chronicles’ trailer, I knew it would be a game I would love–for the art style, if nothing else. As it turned out, the graphics, while as beautiful as I had expected, were only one part of a great game. The plot was excellent, the setting was a perfect example of a historical fiction, and the gameplay seamlessly merged tactical roleplaying with third person shooting in a way never seen before. But as good as the original Valkyria Chronicles was, Valkyria Chronicles 3 outshines it in every way (except in the graphics department, of course).

Why don't they just make the games on the ps3 instead of the psp it would be so much better.

Summons754190d ago

because nobody bought the first one when it was released so they made it on psp which then again no one bought so we don't even get the 3rd one now.

Such an amazing series and yet so under appreciated

Yi-Long4190d ago (Edited 4190d ago )

... of which Sega nor Sony did barely nothing to promote this new license when it first game out, so yeah, not surprising that many gamers never picked it up.

I did though, and it's a fantastic game. Also, it has the original language. (I'm talking about the first game. Haven't played the 2nd and 3rd game)

Blastoise4190d ago

According to Vgchartz it's sold 1.07 million. That's quite impressive actually, A lot more than I thought it would have sold.

Servbot414190d ago

The first one actually sold rather well considering it was a new IP exclusive to one console. Two and three sold poorly, however.

Would love to see this come on the PS3, but i just might pick up a used PSP to play this.

Hicken4190d ago

Are they finally localizing it? I've been rather upset about that, myself. I'd buy another PSP to play both sequels; there are other games, but those two would be my most wanted.

rataranian4190d ago

The only thing SEGA ever markets is Sonic. And not even the old good Sonic. Newer crappy ones.
HD port for the ps3 and Id buy it easily.

The Best Games You Can't Officially Buy Anymore

From Xfire: "It's been estimated that roughly half of the video games ever released on the market can no longer be downloaded or purchased. Whether this is exactly correct is not the point. Rather, we think that either way, the video game industry, as a whole, has done a terrible job at preserving video games and making older titles available to play for future generations."

Terry_B1069d ago

You can play all of these games still lol. The headline is just misleading. Funny is that there is not one game in the list that you really can't play anymore due to it being online only games.

CorndogBurglar1069d ago (Edited 1069d ago )

Its not about games you can't play. Its about games you can't officially buy anywhere.

Terry_B1069d ago

The author changed it actually

Army_of_Darkness1069d ago

Who needs to buy these games anyway? Most of them are average at best and won't really be missed.

littletad1069d ago (Edited 1069d ago )

It says buy, not play though. You can't purchase Deadpool or the Simpsons game anymore. Unless you have a 360 for the simpsons or a physical copy of deadpool, or purchased it before it was delisted.

shuvam091069d ago

Look at his comment. It's from 9 hours ago. Article goes back 4 hours. Title might have been changed after realising the mistake

isarai1069d ago

One you actually legit cannot play AT ALL is Noby Noby Boy. I miss turning my brain off and messing around in that game, was so psyched to re-download it when i rebought a ps3 slim, but you cant, even if it's in your downl library, along with a few other obscure PS3 games i had.

NecrumOddBoy1069d ago

The original memes to the moon game. Loved NNB on PS3.

FreeckyCake1069d ago

I would replace Transformers Devastation with War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron tho.

Knightofelemia1069d ago (Edited 1069d ago )

Transformers Devastation was good but not as good as Fall and War of Cybertron they should be on the list. SH 2 I can play any time I want since it came free in a $10 Xbox I bought used. The Simpsons Arcade I have on my PS3 surprised the Xmen Arcade game is not on this list or the Turtles arcade game either.

CorndogBurglar1069d ago

I had the X-Men arcade game on my 360. I don't know if Xbox Live is still a thing or not, and of it is, I don't know of they still sell X-Men. But it was deinitely on Xbox Live at some point.

Knightofelemia1069d ago (Edited 1069d ago )

If you had X-Men before you can redownload it from your transaction history on the 360 Microsoft did not castrate the 360 from online. That is how I was able to redownload the old TMNT arcade game to my 360 you can't play it on XB1 or Series X but you can still access it for sure on the 360.
