Neocrisis: 20 new screens. Game will be released February 20th in Europe.
The Hachiko writes: "Besides Final Fantasy, throughout the years the Dragon Quest franchise has proven itself to be one of the best RPG franchises around. When you mix a traditional old school RPG system with the charming character designs by Akira Toriyama (of Dragonball fame), you get yet another classic in the series. Making its way to the North American audiences for the first time in history, it's yet another great game deserving of the Dragon Quest lineage."
MyDS writes: "The DS remake of DQ4: HotHB originally on the Super Famicom does a fantastic job of updating the game, with some gorgeous and amusing character designs and a couple of new additions that make the game feel like new. Its quaint and familiar coming-of-age story doesn't break any ground, but it is well told and it's clear that the localization folks put a lot of love into crafting clever dialogue. The only place the game hasn't seen a suitable adjustment is in its slow and laborious climb through levels. The game demands a devotion that old-time RPG fanatics will be familiar with. Other players may balk at the intense grind necessary to progress."
According to their GDC presentation, here are the top-selling video games from Level-5.
I never realized Dark Cloud sold a million.Wow.
Also I easily knew Dragon Quest VIII is their most successful game.
The first one was horrible though. The second one was pure awesome. Just creating your own towns, fishing and taking pictures of stuff to create things was addicted enough.
O man "Jeanne d’Arc (PSP) - 220,000 World Wide"- this game deserved so much more than this :(
Dark Cloud 2 also deserves way more than 900k, that game is so awesome, i finished it 3 times, don't remember when i last did with any game. For me that was/is Sonys Zelda.
Jeanne d'arc is amazing. Sad to see great games with such low sales and see generic average games get big sales numbers. Level 5 are great game makers and I can't wait for WKC to arrive in the U.S.
Yeah, that is a truly a shame how badly it sold. It was a high quality title. My favorite Level 5 game by far. I'd say even deeper and more balance then Valkyria Chronicles and it was a handheld game. But I guess we may never see a sequel to either game though...
so why havent we heard anything about a new Dark Cloud since obviously Level 5 has a large fanbase? And Im sure Sony would be glad to publish the game...
Heh, Sony own the rights to the game, but I have no doubt Level-5 will be happy to carry it on.
I'm guessing that coming off White Knight, they're probably starting on their next project which will probably be announced at TGS.
They're probably busy with DQIX right now but they've probbaly got plans for it.
Can't wait for DQIX, Armor Project + Level 5=Awesome.
