GA:
I have a bit of a chicken-egg dilemma when it comes to Breach & Clear: did the fact it's a mediocre, repetitive game make me more likely to notice that its politics are kind of appalling, or did its appalling politics make me take a dimmer view of its gameplay?
Limited Run Games’ first physical PS Vita release Breach & Clear has been released yesterday with an overwhelming success.
At 11:30 a.m. (EST), orders for Mighty Rabbit Studios’ tactical strategy game Breach & Clear could be placed for $24.99 via Limited Run’s online shop and after 103 minutes, all 1,500 printed copies have been sold out.
Yes, they already announced two other limited physical editions, Saturday Morning RPG and Cosmic Star Heroine for both PS Vita and PS4.
Yep, this is the final nail. This proves physical gaming is dead, and there's no market for it.
I'm joking obviously, but this proves what I've been saying for years. Physical gaming won't die because there's a market for it, and since there's a market do you really think greedy companies like EA and ubi would leave money on the table? I think not.
Not sure if serious or trolling. You obviously commented in regards to PS Vita being dead, amirite? ;)
No....I love the Vita and have bought two of them....
I'm joking about how people say physical games are dead when stuff like this proves that isn't the case. In, short I'm making fun of the people who say all future games will be digital.
Next time please read my entire comment, thank you.
For those unaware Limited Run Games is aiming to make physical game releases a reality for independent previously digital-only titles.
Their first sale begins with Breach & Clear for the PlayStation Vita limited to only 1,500 copies on Thursday (October 29th), with a further sale next month for PlayStation 4 title - Super Morning RPG.
Crash Landed breaks down all the details.
Awesome, I really like the sound of this:
"We are Limited Run Games a publisher of limited run physical games for PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 4. We focus on bringing games that were previously only available in a digital format to a physical medium. We're game collectors and players who fear the prophesied all-digital future. We hope that we're not crazy to think that there is other people like us that still want physical games."
Indeed. I hope they pursue developers a bit to realize a physical version for digital only games. I already have gotten SOMA, but I was upset that it didnt get a physical release so maybe one day it will happen. Id pick up Soma again on disc for a pretty penny.
This is cool but is Breach & Clear really the best Vita game they could secure to release for retail? Maybe try a Vita exclusive, or like, just something better.
Well seeing as Breach & Clear is their own in-house developed game, it's more of a test case to prove that they can do it to other developers.
I'm sure we'll see them stretch the titles on offer once it's a well oiled publishing machine.
Limited Run Games popped up out of nowhere early this month, promising to do exactly what their name states and do limited physical printings of games that would otherwise remain digital-only. The first one comes tomorrow, so get your wallet ready.
