A look at how the combat system has been completely overhauled for the JRPG sequel.
On this week's episode of The 1099 Podcast, Game Informer features editor and JRPG guru, Kim Wallace, joins host Josiah Renaudin to discuss the JRPGs you need to play—whether you're a hardcore fan or entirely new to the genre. From Dragon Quest XI to Chrono Trigger, the duo details why turn-based games still have a place in modern video games.
US PSN is having a Flash sale this week. This is in addition to the Double Discount sale that is currently on-going as well as the promotional Totally Digital sale.
That was fast, August barely even started
I hope this month gets another flash sale cuz this one is disappointing especially in comparison to last month’s flash sale
Wow The Crew 2 is already in sale? Just like the last NFS.
I guess this gen Forza Horizon is the best by far and perform the best as well, and GTS is the best sim yet.
Gary "Dominoid" Sheppard from GameGrin writes, "The first Ni no Kuni was one of my favourite JRPG titles of the last few years. With elements of traditional and modern RPG games, some beautiful Studio Ghibli artwork, and an engrossing and entertaining story, it had me hooked from the outset and I really loved it. It wasn’t expected to be any more than a cult hit, but with worldwide sales of 1.4 million between the PS3 and DS versions of the first game, it turns out that there’s a much more widespread appeal than Level 5 initially expected, especially in the west, where this is a niche genre. Given the unexpected success of the first game, it’s understandable that we’ve had a wait of about five years in the west for a sequel. Was it worth half a decade of waiting though? Let’s talk about that."
