In a world full of dark and complex role-playing games, it's been some time since we've seen a simpler kind of game, where good faces off against evil and adventure is accompanied by a sense of wonder. Enter Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, a collaboration between veteran RPG developer Level-5 and internationally acclaimed animation house Studio Ghibli. This visually stunning game, with the sensibility of a fairy tale and the scope of an epic quest, is exactly what the doctor ordered.
Matt from We Game Daily writes: "Cross Worlds isn’t going away. It’s making a small fortune, particularly in Asian markets, so there’s no reason for Level-5 to pull the plug. That said, there’s no real reason why a full PC/console sequel can’t be developed alongside efforts to support Cross Worlds."
While Ni no Kuni 3 would be cool, if it was like the first game, where is Dark Cloud 3 and Rogue Galaxy 2?
They should've worked with Ghibli to put out a proper movie. Should've also made a Pokemon-esque spin-off rather than make Yokai Watch. If they do make a third game they gotta work with Ghibli!
Get ready to embark on a journey filled with monsters, magic, and overpowered haircuts, because this list features the best JRPGs on the PS3.
There wasn't that many. Thanks to the west's criticism. It was definitely lacking compared to every other ps system. Dont get me wrong there were a few good ones i know that.
Only gripe I have with Ar Tonelico 3 is that Saki is annoying as hell whether English or in Japanese. Then Saki's English voice actor became Ionasal on Ar Nosurge she was a little annoying but not as bad. Johnny Young Bosch voicing Tatsumi I thought he did a great job. And Akiko Shikata with her vocals and the music from the games just went hand and hand.
Twinfinite: "During the PS3’s tenure, plenty of huge games launched, but the interesting thing is, many of the system’s rarer titles are largely not amazing games. Sure, there are one or two exceptions to that rule (I’m looking at you Ni No Kuni!), but many of the more desirable and valuable games in the PS3’s library are usually rare for a reason."
Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
Sold my Painkiller for around £3 years ago and my Asuras Wrath for even less. Managed to pick up Lollipop Chainsaw and Splatterhouse again but they cost me a fair bit more than I initially paid on release when I first bought them.
Wish I bought Godzilla, the number of times I saw it in the game store for the price of a coffee and didn't bother.
i own nba, lolipop and nino kuni. never heard of the rest tbf xD surprised they are worth that much, for what they actually are.
Getting a valuable game is all luck.. I had three of these. Africa is one that people might have seen coming, but otherslike Ni No Kuni wouldn't have been.
My most valuable game I remember owning was Conkers Bad Fur Day. When the game was being re-released on Xbox (remake/ upgrade if you will), the price dropped dramatically. Once the game released and the changes were seen, the value went back up. Then it was released on Rare Replay and value dropped again. 2020 hit and all collectables shot up along with Conker. Before stopping around $110 which it currently is.
Games change all the time because their digital media that can be reproduced even in weird contract bindings (GoldenEye as an example). One day it can be worth $300 and the next $150. The shrink wrapped items in mint condition cannot be reproduced.. but that takes strength to spend, not open, and hope its worth something.
Lookin' good. I'll be bringing it home next week, if I'm lucky.
Looks terrific. I ordered this game this morning. I hoped to cut back my spending on games. I'll start being more responsible after buying this one. Maybe.
have anyone played the game?
i myself love Ghibli but not a fan on turn based combat system, thats why i have a hard time with JRPG games, but man, i really want to try this game out, not just a demo version, cause i think a demo cant really justify a game.
If anyone has played the real game, not the demo, can you recommend the game for a gamer that loves Ghiblis work but aint a fan of turn based combat ?
Thanx :)
im going to pick this game up day one, i love RPG games and ghibli studios.
But like i said before, i dont like turn based combat system and thats why i have a hard time playing JRPG games, but if it is like you said, real time combat for the most part, with elements of turnbased combat system, then i think i can adapt to that :)
