VandalOnline: Hand in hand and Hit Maker Nippon Ichi, creators of Dragoneer's Aria, comes a new role-playing game for the PlayStation 3, Last Rebellion. Gradually the market opens timidly to the genre of Japanese role, and this new title comes to add more variety to the current catalog of the console, although it will face two heavyweights of Square Enix, Final Fantasy XIII and Star Ocean The Last Hope International, who will arrive around the same time.
Evan discusses how trophies and achievements can add or take away from value and gaming experiences.
Trophies are always iffy for me. I'd rather gain unlockable weapons and modes from completing a game if I had to choose but very rare that a modern game offers both.
I like trophies, it's kind of a public list of games you've beat the crap out of, I've made a few friends online based on trophies. The reason why trophies and gamerscore are fun is because it's a number that keeps growing, and the trophies set a goal to increase it, it's a game in itself. I wouldn't want no new weapon for beating a Dark Souls game, thank you, give me the plat or at least the trophies for beating all the bosses.
Doom has you pretty much following a guide your entire playthrough for the plat, because there's so many easily missable collectibles that it would take 100+ hours if you wing it versus 20-25 w/ guide but it's a great experience. Some games have you grind for it, have you replay a game several times with only minute differences, I don't call that replay value.
“Prior to our release of Z.H.P. Unlosing Ranger VS Darkdeath Evilman, it was a period of great struggle for us,” says NIS CEO Sohei Niikawa.
Meristation: Last Rebellion comes to us, a title resulting from the collaboration between Nippon Ichi and Hit Maker, which aims to fill the void in the genre on the PlayStation 3 have role in this generation.
