NewMonday3761d ago

the game is a big hit in Japan both critically and financially, Vanillaware deserve this breakthrough.

hazardman3761d ago

So why are we showing west chart. Its known the Japanese really dont like shooters. Also just because shooters dominate the list for the west doesnt mean thats all we play!! Its best selling not most played!!!

PixelNinja3761d ago

great list,every game is worth playing and give different experience of game,meanwhile in the east the top ranking is flooded of anime,roleplay games and final fantasy.
People have different opinions on games, the West isn't really flooded with shooters and sports games on the same level as Japan is flooded with anime games; you just need to take of your weaboo glasses.

Dragon's Crown is so fun and addicting specially 4 player co-op!

Lv 95 now

I have yet to try the Fighter and the Elf...the Amazon is Amazingly Amazing!

now I know not to base everything on Media Create charts

different strokes for different folks

digital download is so convenient

Dhuie3761d ago

Hell Yeah !

Dragons is so good, I loved playing it on the Vita on the way to work in the train. I even picked up the Digital PS3 version a few months later - its a lot of fun.

Lionalliance3761d ago

No Lightning Returns in the list, good :)!

Hicken3761d ago

... as opposed to Dragon's Crown, which has been out most of the year on both PS3 and Vita, LR is fairly new, and probably hasn't sold nearly as many digital copies as physical.

Anthotis3761d ago

I'm sure many people play Dragon's Crown for the tits alone.

nope1113761d ago

Probably, i just hope those individuals realise a deep and addicting game behind the tits.

Double_O_Revan3761d ago

Tits aren't addicting enough? ;)

cyguration3761d ago

Yes, because behind the tits is dat a$$. And that can be very deep and addicting, too.

Maxor3761d ago

There are things behind tits?? Why?

Klonoa-dreamtraveler3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

stop being weeaboo's and caring so much about what the west does.

Hicken3761d ago

Stop embarrassing yourself.

Klonoa-dreamtraveler3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

How am i embarrassing myself? I made the choice to post that and i dont regret it. Whats embarrassing is weeaboo's that act like everything from japan is superior. Sorry if that hurts your feelings. I would carry this on but this is my post limit.

thehobbyist3761d ago

"stop being weeaboo's and caring so much about what the west does." Don't you mean "Stop caring so much about what the EAST does." Seriously, just about anyone who speaks English addresses Japan as an Eastern nation. Go back to fifth grade social studies.

Inception3761d ago

@klonoa

Did you check the article? They've got Rain, Terraria, Soul Sacrifice, PSABR, and even Dust 514 on the top ten for some category. It's really varied, unlike western charts that only dominates by CoD, BF, Fifa, or Madden :P

SilentNegotiator3761d ago (Edited 3761d ago )

There's like, a dozen lists there; of course they're varied if you look at ALL of them. So lets see ALL of the equivalent lists for some western territories.

Inception3761d ago

Ok, where's all the western list you implied? Show it to me than we're talk.

SilentNegotiator3760d ago

YOU made the assumption about how it will compare to the west. YOU show me the equivalent western lists.

Inception3760d ago

You bring nothing into this discussion. You're the one who implied that western list are varied. THAN YOU WHO MUST SHOW ME THE LIST. It turn's out you can't. End of discussion.

Snookies123760d ago (Edited 3760d ago )

You're using that stupid term wrong by the way. A Weeaboo is someone who constantly tries to act Japanese despite not being Japanese. Like speaking perfect English, but throwing in Japanese words in place of ones they could have just said in their native tongue.

Regardless, the term is really stupid and it's childish to use. People like what people like. Can you not let that be without insulting them?

Why mention PS5 when talking about PS3

Magog323d ago

The load times in retrospect are unbearable but I did have hella fun playing couch co-op with my gf on the PS3 and PS2.

anast323d ago

Couch co-op is the best alternative.

Rynxie323d ago

Resistance 2 co-op was amazing! I wish they would remaster resistance 1-3 and killzone 1-3 for the PS5.

Let me save you the time to scroll down no Warhawk or Starhawk, 2 of the best co-op games on PS3

I have a friend who still has a sealed copy of Folklore. I’m sure it’s worth more now than it was when it released but I’m not sure how much more.

franwex1115d ago

Bought it for $5 at Walmart. I have yet to play it. But I did open it to look at it. Heh.

phoenixwing1115d ago

the game is actually good. I'd rather buy and play it than keep a sealed copy

Indigon1115d ago

Yeah I gave my brother my PS3 for free with a lot of games but I kept Folklore.

Teflon021115d ago

Folklore is an amazing game. Should have bought 2 copies. 1 to play and one to keep

Seraphim1115d ago

yeah I still have a sealed copy of Folklore too. I almost never do this but I had originally rented it. One day I saw it for like $20 at Walmart so picked up a copy. Always meant to re-play it but just never did. I think in part because it never got trophy support[?]. It was an interesting and unique game that didn't get the love it deserved.

I see Trails of Cold Steel II is tagged. Not sure where PS3 prices sit but the PS4 version of both Trails I and II were around $140 as recently as a little over a month ago. Ended up buying both of them digitally then buying III and IV on disc. Shame I kept putting off buying them. Just a couple months prior you could still get them both for about $45 each. Anyway I'm almost finished with II and hopefully be playing III and IV next.

Petebloodyonion1115d ago

I would suggest using price charting to evaluate the value of a past game.
https://www.pricecharting.c...
value for the game new is 60$

Hawk1986661114d ago

Its not worth much, about £20.

monkey6021114d ago

I want Folklore. I've been trying to find it for some time now. It's one of the only games set in Ireland so I've been busting to play it some time

And wait for emulation and/or till their PS3 dies?

franwex1115d ago

3D Dot Game Heroes is a cool game that may soon go up in price too. I enjoyed it.

Indigon1115d ago

That's one that has been quite hard to find for some time.

Godmars2901114d ago (Edited 1114d ago )

At least you didn't own ALL Panzer Dragoon entries only to sell them all on ebay.

Don't talk to me about seller's regret...

nommers1115d ago

I'm so glad I kept my copy of this game.

Soy1115d ago

Great game, lots of fun - and definitely tougher to find. I'm glad I kept mine.

Teflon021115d ago

Glad I still have it. One of my fav games that gen

Gardenia1115d ago

PS1, PS2 and PS3 BC right now is pointless. The top games are extremely overpriced or aren't available anywhere anymore. The best that can happen is Sony putting all the games on the PSN and/or PS Now. That way we all can play the classics, with trophies and some optimizations.

Godmars2901114d ago

Pointless, unless you have a 2st stage production model PS3.

One have to get fixed, but still, I've got it.

gold_drake1114d ago

exvuse me
i still play games on my ps2.

Gardenia1114d ago

That's because you only think about yourself. 90% of gamers don't have PS1, PS2 or PS3 games lying around. What do think is going to happen when there is BC and games like Vagrant Story, MGS, Suikoden 2 will be on sale? The few that are will be sold for hundreds of Euro's/Dollars.

Digital is the only option for everyone to be able to play those games.

gold_drake1114d ago (Edited 1114d ago )

ooff yea im only thinking about myself by playing my ps2 games haha.
the whole point about my reply was that, BC is not pointless. alot of ppl still have their old games mind you.

HankHill1114d ago

Nobody agrees with you so I guess you're the one only thinking about themself.

TheColbertinator1115d ago

Still have the Neptunia box sets unopened. Every year they get more valuable
