I think I am getting dumber reading these articles. Shame on me for giving hits to this crap.
PS. Since when was "Gamestop" a journalist site that is giving gaming journalism a bad name? Gamespot perhaps?
I own a PS3, not a 360 and am missing the JRPGs big time. Star Ocean should be multi, but you say JRPGs sell better on PS3 than 360? What JRPGs are even out on the PS3? Folklore (which I don't really consider a proper JRPG, even though the game was pretty good)? The JRPG lineup is pretty sparse, in my opinion.
This game is about 9 years overdue in my opinion. A new Dark Cloud would also be awesome.
I have played through the R2 single player and agree with most of the sites. It seems that they sacrificed the single player campaign for the multiplayer. The story is practically nonsensical, and there are so many "GOTCHA!" one hit death scenarios that I found it a chore to even complete. For the record I loved RFOM and Insomniac is one of my favorite developers. The coop and competitive modes are unbelievable (by far the best on PS3), but single player is average at best.
My thoughts exactly.
Has anyone gotten the email that preordered a copy? Aren't you supposed to be guaranteed into the beta if you preordered?
Don't get me wrong. For the most part I really like Nintendo, and I've loved Mario Kart since the SNES, but seeing motorbikes in Kart was one of the most disappointing things I've seen from Nintendo in a long time. I miss the days of simple gokarts with ONE rider. Double dash was alright, but it didn't even come close to the level of Mario Kart or Mario Kart 64.
A FF7 remake would be like the second coming of Christ. That game got me into RPGs, but I am tired of having it teased like a carrot dangling in front of my face.
