Square Enix's new next-gen RPG has been confirmed for both platforms and for a simultaneous US/Japan release.
Many overlooked RPGs lie dormant in the catalogues of gaming, but players can pick up their swords and shields with these amazing JRPG hidden gems!
Game Rant - "From Star Ocean to Final Fantasy, there have been a number of JRPG's that have been unfairly undervalued by their Metascores. Here are 10 examples."
While I agree that the combat in Star Ocean 5's combat is pretty fun, saying that its story is more enjoyable than its predecessors is highly debatable. Also, it's not just the technical issues the game suffers from.
Completely disagree the games I played from the list all deserve their scores (Star Ocean, Nier, Tales of Zesteria, Type-0). While there are certainly people that love these games, they have flaws in many categories, that justify those scores.
Star Ocean especially bored the hell out of me. Lame story and face roll battle system (I finished the game anyway). These games are really niche and when rated by a broader public, fall short. In my opinion even in their own genre.
In this episode, we explore The History of The Last Remnant. A game the recently received a remastered release and had an interesting development cycle.
It's a good game, but the story is only okay. The gameplay is where the game really shines, but the game itself does an atrocious job of explaining it's own systems. Basically, you need to read a "what I wish I knew before I started" somewhere online, and then the game becomes great.
that they are still going thru with the simultaneous release in US and Japan! Looks like I'm gonna have to flip a coin to figure out which console to buy it for ^^
I am curious though as to how Square will handle 360 media, and PS3 media.
This is going to be interesting.
LOL no surprise, no mention of the Euro version.
once this is out in US/Jap , Euro waits 2-3yrs as usual.
even though i thought it was time exclusive..lol..lets see if the 360 version will come in multiple disks.. this is confirmaton that final fantasy viii and versus is exclusive for PS3..which is great!!!
new it wasn't for the Wii, that thing cant hold the unreal 3 engine, lol and intendo fans thought it cud
