GE: Nintendo seems to have high hopes for the Wii U's capabilities vs PS3 and 360.
Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
This could be fun as they make great tables. Go big or go extinct. Prime your senses for a neural handshake and step into the cockpit of a Jaeger. It is on you to cancel the apocalypse when Pacific Rim Pinball comes to Pinball FX on May 16.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
The thing is, the people who love Call of Duty already have a PS3/360 to play it on.
"GamePad will allow you to declutter the TV and pull gaming items like maps down and not interrupt your interaction and enjoy the cinematic quality of the game on the TV" - I would disagree, having to look down at the controller to see something that's normally on screen would definitely not be beneficial.
*Looks down at map, looks back up* Dead now.
I don't see how they came to that conclusion. I already have a PC and PS3 (and currently not-in-use X360), why would I buy a Wii-U to play Call of Duty of all things if I already have so many other less costly options?
And when the next Xbox or Playstation come out, why would I buy a Wii-U to play core games when I could buy either of the other two since they'll most likely be powerhouses (and plenty of other games that aren't Mario)?
Silly thing to say as I'll never buy a Nintendo console for "core" games. They pretty much set that in stone with the Wii.
It's not Call of Duty the game that would make me go buy a Wii U in the first place, show me exclusive mature experiences Nintendo and i will go back to my gaming roots but Call of Duty wont do it.
Highly doubtful, but still.
If devs can prove that they are making the CoD, or any other multiplat, as good or better on the Wii U, it might change the hardcore Nintendo fans mind, but I doubt it will change the minds of people who don't own Nintendo consoles.
