E3 2008: NIS America Making a New PS3 Exclusive RPG

From RPGFans:

"He also mentioned that NIS' home branch in Japan was interested in using the Wii's motion capabilities in RPGs in the near future, but mentioned that the Sony family of platforms was still NIS' main focus. He continued on to say that NIS' next title for the PS3 will harness more of the power of the platform and shouldn't garner complaints that it looks like a PS2 game, like Disgaea 3 did."

Hope we get to see some details on this at TGS though. Anyone have any idea when playstation premiere is happening ? Last year, it was just 4 days after E3 and the amount of new games that were announced there were just mind blowing ( GT5:P, Valkyria and others)

Wildarmsjecht5772d ago

I completely forgot about that. I thought after the Gamer Day this year, there wasn't anymore Sony based events. I wonder...if its still on what titles they kept in hiding?

decapitator5772d ago (Edited 5772d ago )

I thought Gamersday was more of a EU event, E3 been a NA event and then finally, Playstation premiere been Japan event ?

EDIT: Interesting, the last paragraph on the page says a new RPG will be revealed before the end of this month (no platform announced) and another one will be announced September or October (TGS).

Looks like another A-tier rpg coming to the PS3. The quality is endless on this system.

some positive PS3 rpg News!

decapitator5772d ago

Dude, am amazed at the fact that Sony did not show any rpg's for PS3 (understandable since they might be saving some for TGS and also since this was more of a conference for NA than the rest of the world.) but yet have so many in development that we just don't know about.

I was hoping to at least see WKS.

Drekken5772d ago

Honestly after the other two, sony didnt have to pull out all of the guns.

decapitator5772d ago (Edited 5772d ago )

Yeah I heard Heavenly Rain was removed from the line up the last minute after the Microsoft's conference. Leipzig it is then.

Chris3995772d ago

Sorry to get all biblical there, but my PS3 has been starved of RPGs. As an RPG junkie, my 360 has been getting all the love and positive announcements lately. I'm actually very excited about NIS making an RPG. They are as traditional is it gets. Sure they add little innovations here and there, but nothing that breaks the mold - that's not an insult, it's what I like in a JRPG.

I hope it's something sprite based ala Odin Sphere, only in HD. As a few posters above mentioned, I'm excited for TGS. Hopefully, Sony unveils it's - exclusive - RPG hand there. I was disappointed in this years E3 (mostly shooters and such).

Cheers,

This game deserves a remaster for current consoles. It was awesome on PS3.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast1d 10h ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM1d 7h ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife20h ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit15h ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife13h ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
