God Eater 2 Version 1.2 is a Change for the Better

Hardcore Gamer: Back when I did the import showcase for God Eater 2, I mentioned there was talk of story expanding updates. At the time I assumed that meant free or possibly paid DLC, but version 1.1 added new missions without the need to download anything else. This might seem pointless to some, but this choice allows people without Japanese or Asian accounts to experience the content without flashing their Vita. Now that version 1.2 is out, lets take a look at how this impacts the game.

Awesome to see a site continue covering a game after a big update. I really wish more sites would do that, since a number of games have had huge updates that fixed problems, but were overlooked due to initial reviews.

ChaosKnight3728d ago

I hope this game gets localized.

Gamehead---3728d ago

Don't know why it shouldn't.

Kamikaze1353728d ago

I wonder if they're waiting for the online multiplayer patch before announcing it for the West.

beakeroo13728d ago

Without flashing their Vita? lol, this terminology maybe a little off track.

killerluffy1233728d ago

What is wrong wth this game ? Even soul sacrfice took less than 6 months to localized , if it is reaaly that hard to release it for western ganers , can u just put in the english subtitles ? Lol most of us actually prefer the original voice rather than waiting for a year just to listen an english man talking -_-

1) Bandai Namco has a terrible track record localizing things.
2) Soul Sacrifice was published / developed by Sony, so it makes sense it would come here fast, just like Freedom Wars most likely will.
3) God Eater 2 has a LOT more text and dialog than Soul Sacrifice. Like, several times more dialog than Soul Sacrifice.
4) God Eater Burst had awful sales. According to even an unreliable source like VGCharts, the game sold 30,000 total. You can times that by 10 and it still isn't an impressive number.
5) Bandai Namco clearly has little faith in Vita sales State side. Recently we've seen them bring over several Tales titles, but neither of the Vita ones have came over. I assume those would sell better than God Eater 2 and probably make more sense.
etc

I think The Last of Us should be at the top of the list. Its such an amazing game.

WeirdShroom3431d ago

I just wonder how bad Xbox would get trashed if they had their own personal awards for their current console. Cries of pretentious hauty BS would surely fly. And as usual the tears would be delicious. Pass the salt?

Immorals3431d ago

Can you explain? From my personal experience, my friends that have xboxes enjoy the games they buy more than playstation owners.

WeirdShroom3431d ago

Because the trendy thing these days is for people to trash on MS for things, then praise Sony for essentially the exact same things. IE: Calling MS "desperate" for a "$100 price cut", when all they did was un-bundle Kinect....exactly like Sony did to drop their price by $100 by un-bundling the camera(only this was BEFORE launch). The salt is provided by fanboys on both sides crying like little bitches, pretending their views are world views and generally being hypocrites. That clear it up for ya, bub? :)

"enjoy the games they buy more than playstation owners"

Well thats a stupid thing to say. GTAV is equally as enjoyable on both i dont see how Xbox consumers are going to enjoy it more than PlayStation owners.

Im currently enjoying the heck out of the game and its my first time playing it so im pretty sure im enjoying it a lot more than many XB1 and PS4 owners.

Why is it that in order for a game to be more enjoyable than a game on the PS4 it has to be the Xbox version?

Immorals3431d ago

@MasterCornholio I was speaking about exclusives, rather than multiplats.

Pillsbury13445d ago (Edited 3445d ago )

It was bound to happen sooner or later. I would also expect other Sony 1st party launch titles to join ps plus in the future such as knack and lbp3.

Torque_CS_Lewith3445d ago

LBP3 is not a launch game though.

Pillsbury13444d ago

Lbp 2 eventually came to ps plus, is this not true?

Edi0073445d ago

I m happy with injustice for eu and first light i hope killzone or knack for February
