12 minutes of off-screen Omega Quintet gameplay footage have surfaced from an Akihabara shop demonstration event.
Watch the footage below. The Compile Heart-developed PlayStation 4 idol RPG is due out in Japan on September 18.
The big game sale on Steam is in full swing, once more putting thousands of deals on Valve's online store. Some of the biggest sellers include The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Grand Theft Auto 5 and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds; the usual suspects
I would usually say regret, loneliness and a full HDD, but I'm seeing someone now for the first time in ages, so I didn't even know there was a steam summer sale going on. Thanks for sharing that info though.

Omega Quintet is a jRPG that your wife/girlfriend/mother is going to look at you strangely for playing. Moreso than the usual looks you get from jRPGs. Crafted by the crew at Compile Heart, this entry in your library is super Japanese, even though it's been translated over. That is not meant in any sort of disparaging sense of the term, but instead, if you tend to embrace the concept of Japan's pop idols, and always wanted to turn those into battling jRPG characters, well this is your chance.
Omega Quintet stars the verse maidens, magical girls who slay creatures called the MAD using song and dance. These monsters are spawned by the Blare, a strange black substance that turns organic beings into MAD. With the old verse maiden Momoka retiring, it's up to Otoha and the newest verse maidens to defeat the MAD once and for all.
A little bit too japanese for me :S
If that came out in the US today, I would buy it. Looks like a decent RPG, and there really isn't any better games to play on the PS4 right now.
When did this game come out? 10 years ago?
Actually, it looks alot better than I initially expected. Basically like a Neptunia or Atelier game but on PS4. Visuals don't look any different, but I'm sure it won't matter to the real target audience. I'd prob snag it on sale if it came to the US.
