EDGE are usually quite harsh when it comes to reviews so a 9/10 for Persona 4 is pretty impressive. Can wait to he my hands on it.

EDGE also gave the original PS2 Persona 4 game a 9.

Was hoping for better for The Cave. Excited about Kentucky Route Zero - really loved the mood piece of the trailer they did, but I found their previous game, A House in California, a pretentious waste of time.

The Making of Final Fantasy VI feature is sure to be interesting.

Did I just read Edge's preview includes Yakuza 5? Does that mean it is possible for it is to be released in English soon? It would be awesome if that is true.

.
EDGE also usually gave the Japanese Yakuza games reviews too, way before the English versions, either its already announced for localization / not.

NewsForSnowflakes4092d ago

Funnily enough my issue has just this minute landed on my doorstep.

The game's out now in Japan but says TBC for US/EU.

Here's an quote from the magazine:

"Yakuza's formula sells, so there's little pressure to deviate. However, it's a formula that only sells well in Japan, which explains why Sega has been reluctant to announce a western release. With that in mind, an import purchase is all the more tempting, although we'd advice against it unless you're fluent in Japanese."

If EA and Motive Studio plan on remaking all the main Dead Space entries, they have to change a lot of what made Dead Space 3 so divisive.

Simple, do not bother with a Dead Space 3 remake. Rather have a new entry for Dead Space.

myfathersbastard415d ago

Yeah I agree. Make a dead space 3, but have an original story/setting. They’ve proven they can do the game justice, and I think they could evolve 2 in a good direction, keeping a similar tone. I’d love s Dead Space 2 and 3 though. The remake was fantastic. Top tier remake, up there with RE2.

jznrpg415d ago

Remaking 3 would need to be a reworked and somewhat changed remake as 3 was flawed in most peoples eyes and the worst entry.

Ninver415d ago

It's the worst in the series.

Dead Space 3, A Ten Year Reunion

WTMG's Kyle Nicol:

"Was Dead Space 3 really that bad?

Well, it’s a complicated question. Dead Space 3 is undeniably the weakest of the trilogy. It’s a game that deviates so far from the original formula, that it throws a lot of what made Dead Space special in the first place out of the window. Although, where it does make up for it is one of the best cooperative shooters on the market, even after all this time. Do I recommend playing this game ten years later? Hell yes. But make sure your expectations are in the right place. It has a lot of problems that bring it down."

They need to seriously continue this ip with a new entry. Even if it's just another movie I don't care I love everything about this game.
