that really outstanding considering how niche this game is.

majiebeast3793d ago

Yeah best selling game Vanillaware has ever produced.

miyamoto3793d ago (Edited 3793d ago )

I guess I have to thank the haters for giving this game publicity and great exposure to the public eye.

Congratulations Vanillaware and Atlus for picking this game up like you did Demon's Souls.

sequel maybe on its way!

Level 78 Infernal difficulty!

hulk_bash19873793d ago

Congrats to Vanillaware and Atlus, this was a great game that deserves alot of sales.

Knushwood Butt3793d ago

Yeah, I'm very happy for them to have success with what many would consider is a retro title.

Let's have more in the future.

yeahokchief3793d ago

HELL YEA!

KING OF COUch coop RPGS!

800,000 is NOT ENOUGH! Keep buying this game!

badz1493793d ago

I definitely will! damn...why am I waiting so long to get this? shame on me

DanielGearSolid3793d ago

Havent played it but the word of mouth was crazy for this game. I wonder if the sex appeal or the gameplay were the main driving force for the sales

Ratty3793d ago

Definitely gameplay. There is no sex appeal at all in this game. The boobs and butts are so exagerated it's more of a turn-off.

The art is still amazing if you can get past that and so is the gameplay. It's also rather cheap. I'd say if you're looking for a good couch-coop experience it's probably one of the best game for that on PS3 right now.

The only downside is there's a lot of griding involved if you keep playing after beating the story... which is pretty much the reason I quit but it's still an amazing game.

SilentNegotiator3793d ago

"Definitely gameplay. There is no sex appeal at all in this game. The boobs and butts are so exagerated it's more of a turn-off"

Tell that to people that think Kim Kardasian is hot.

Bhuahahaha3793d ago

yeah great game.
grinding is okay to me. its way better than making it some kind of dlc a.k.a micro-transaction

i wish if theres even a sequel they tone down those tits a little

Inception3793d ago

Gameplay, beautifull graphic / artstyle, and amazing music: That's the reasons why people bought Vanillaware games.

Stringerbell3793d ago

Look at it this way Atlus is now owned by Sega. Sega commented they would allow Atlus to work on some of their IP's that have collected dust. Bring us a proper sequel to Golden Axe. If anyone could do it, its this development team right here.

Chrono3793d ago

Just saying, Atlus doesn't own this IP, they only published the game.

Eyeco3793d ago

Golden Axe on the PS2 was a travesty, that said 3D Beat em Ups have worked The Warriors was an excellent example, but if anything I would love Atlus to do either Phantasy Star or Shining Force.

Stringerbell3793d ago

Dont remind me of that crap lol It didnt even have the iconic title theme, which by the way the remixed version on Sonic Racing is epic!

Blank3793d ago

Wow excellent intelligent comment vanillaware+golden axe=proper revival!

EmptySkyForm3793d ago

I loved this game. Clocked in over 200 hours. Everyone is lvl 99 with almost the best weapons.

Why mention PS5 when talking about PS3

330d ago
Magog331d 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.

anast330d ago

Couch co-op is the best alternative.

Rynxie330d ago

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

1Victor206d ago (Edited 206d ago )

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

We've rounded up a few PS3 games that show serious potential for big price jumps over the next few years. Could these reach "Holy Grail" status?

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.

franwex1122d ago

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

phoenixwing1122d ago

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

Indigon1122d ago

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

Teflon021122d ago

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

Seraphim1122d 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.

Petebloodyonion1122d 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$

Hawk1986661122d ago

Its not worth much, about £20.

monkey6021121d 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?

franwex1122d ago

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

Indigon1122d ago

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

Godmars2901122d ago (Edited 1122d 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...

nommers1122d ago

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

Soy1122d ago

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

Teflon021122d ago

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

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.

Godmars2901122d ago

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

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

gold_drake1122d ago

exvuse me
i still play games on my ps2.

Gardenia1122d 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_drake1121d ago (Edited 1121d 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.

HankHill1121d ago

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

TheColbertinator1122d ago

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