Eurogamer:
Enigmatic Japanese developer Suda 51 (of Killer 7 and No More Heroes fame) has teamed up with Tokyo Jungle developer Crispy's Inc and Akira director Katsuhiro Otomo to make the absolutely bonkers PS3-exclusive 2D sidescroller Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Day.
The Outerhaven was able to get an early hands on of Bandai-Namco's off the wall title,Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day and we loved it. But why did we like it so much? Check out the review and see for your self.
Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day is both weird and wonderful. The game itself is a lot of fun, but it obvious that this game is influenced by Suda 51 in some of the aspects as far as the weirdness factors to the gameplay, visuals and story.
When it comes to entertainment designed for mass consumption, no one pushes the envelope for weird as much as the Japanese. When it comes to animation, no one has embraced the medium for mass consumption as much as the Japanese. So it should come as no surprise that some of the most memorable and weird animated works come from Japan, and, of all the nations in the world, they’re the one that most frequently dips into less popular well of storytelling, the anthology.
