Sony dropping them JRPGs on us! Also Persona 5!!!!

Snookies123518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

I know! So freaking excited! Disgaea 5, Ys PS4, and Persona 5? This alone makes me want to go and buy up a PS4 right now.

bouzebbal3518d ago

this is a good start!
Ys isn't a bad series it's at same level at Star Ocean for me. Definitely keeping an eye on this.

Snookies123518d ago (Edited 3518d ago )

@abzdiine - Ys for me is now on a higher level than Final Fantasy. This coming from someone who considered Squaresoft the best developers in gaming, ever. SquareEnix has really dropped the ball since then, so now when I need a good JRPG I know I can look forward to Ys games. (Gotta say though, FFXV has my hopes high with Nomura heading it.) Sure, Ys isn't even on the same level as Squaresoft's masterpieces, but at least they're consistent. I have yet to be disappointed by an Ys game. That's all I'm really trying to say here, lol.

PS2 is back again :D
It's like the last 8 years never happened, where was this crazy support during the PS3 era?

bouzebbal3517d ago

every JRPG is on a higher level than FF nowadays. it's still below old squaresoft FF standards and that's why i put it in the same level as a Star Ocean, which is a very good JRPG series.

Next stop for Sony, a GRANDIA game! Please...

Bigpappy3517d ago

The Y's series was my favorite RPG series back in the day. It had real time combat and was the first, I know of, to have you return to previously visited towns and areas, and you could see the effects of what previous events did to those areas.
I wish X1 were doing better in the west so there maybe a chance of a port. As things are now, it is very unlikely. The series has never been on Xbox. Not even the very successful 360.

Lol hope you guys are happy now. I forgot who it was on this site that was doubting my claim about the RPG announcements coming in September.

Persona 5 made my life, and a new Ys is incredibly exciting.

jjonez183518d ago

Sony getting back to what makes them unique. Those JRPG roots.
TGS is shaping up to be more exciting than both E3 and Gamescom for PS fans.

Memories of celceta rocked! Completed it twice. Will be getting this!

Snookies123518d ago

Have you checked out Ys Origin, or Ys Seven? Those were my two favorites of the franchise! I don't think I've ever been disappointed by an Ys game though. At the very least, they're always really enjoyable games.

slinky1234563518d ago

I loved Memories too. Had a great story I was not expecting. This looks like such a huge update too. Hopefully the Vita version won't be dumbed-down too much.

fullmetal1563518d ago

My heart was thumping just from watching this and the persona trailer but when that ps4 appeared i went crazy i even stripped lol

Hanso3517d ago

lol cant wait too :D
Loved Celceta but for Ys 8 im thinking buying the Ps4 version now. Probably 60 fps..hehehe

imXify3517d ago

They were right. We're making quite a fuss lmao.

Spotie3517d ago

B-b-but making a fuss is only a bad thing!

I may drop out of college again...

Relientk773518d ago

What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.

Cacabunga6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

A rumored game at a rumored show.. we’ve seen it all

TiredGamer6h ago

Agreed. The first remake was stylistically beautiful and a very noticeable improvement over the original in every regard. And it was reasonably priced and sustainably developed (i.e. not some mega big budget game that was do or die for the developer).

Zeke688h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

RonnySins7h ago

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled7h ago

If you played the original print I can see your annoyance. I didn’t and probably a lot others the past 20 years.

Was it any good? Would you suggest playing the original print of 2, or suggest the remake? Just wondering because I didn’t play the originals as I had an n64 at the time

TiredGamer6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

I played the first remake and absolutely loved it. The quality of life and control improvements were very noticeable. I tried playing the PS1 original and gave up halfway through at the janky controls.

Expect the same for part 2. The PS1 version is janky as heck, but I would gobble up an improved remake day one.

The beauty of this kind of stuff is that I find myself enjoying more retro gaming today, so a relatively low budget classic remake (call it a single-A release) is exactly what is missing from first party releases in the modern age. I don’t want every game to be an unsustainable AAAA endeavor that is just overwhelming in every regard. Truly miss when game releases could be modest-sized surprises and still be commercially successful/viable.

Bring on more quality classic remakes!

Knightofelemia7h ago

Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.

Omegasyde6h ago

My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).

I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder

InUrFoxHole2h ago

SOCOM! SOCOM! SOCOM!
But please not like Socom 4

"Darkest Dungeon II" is coming to Playstation consoles on July 15th, 2024

"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Red Hook Studios are today very happy and excited to announce that their roguelike /strategy/RPG “Darkest Dungeon II”, is coming to Playstation consoles (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on July 15th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

TwoPicklesGood8h ago

Don't sleep on this, it's a great day

Michiel19893h ago

I personally didn't enjoy 2 as much as I did 1. Actually didn't even finish it.
I do praise that they didn't just carbon copy the 1st game and added more of everything, but I think that during the process a lot of what made Darkest Dungeon appealing to put a ton of hours in, was lost.

The new mode does look cool and I will definitely jump back into it and try it out.
