Do people even buy physical anymore? I understand why some would want physical over digital perfectly fine, but speaking of general trend? Brick-and-mortal retail (other than couple huge chains) seems to be on its dying bed - judging both by the news reports and the fact that I didn't stumble into a single videogame…

Hold it! I have no issue buying eShop games in English eShop using Russian Master Card. Maybe you're cross-region or something?

Phoenix was the main character of AJ game anyway, even if he wasn't the player character. Now Maya, that's the girl I miss...or, better to say, missed - before she re-appeared in her full glory in Layton crossover lastspring.

>The first three Phoenix Wright games are killer

Wait, what? Did they put all 3 games with XIII in title in one? Or ,maybe they just gave up and pre-rendered everything?

I'm not exactly sure what's so 'BS' about those excuses. They say they intentionally made both versions as close to identical as possible. What part of it is 'gimping'? To elaborate: I can play Spelunky on Xbox and PS3 and it looks identical. Is 360 version gimped? Or maybe PS3 one is - because I'd bet it does not…

I'd say that depends on the marital state of the person rating.

Who knows. It's not rare for runners from Kenya to win the first marathon they compete in, set the course record and maybe even break the world record. Not that they come unprepared either, but still that's astonishing.

Yakuza 5 first though

I think estimation is pretty spot on with Aladdin. Every Disney movie adapts the historical setting to suit modern morals and stuff like that anyway, spicing it up with some totally modern archetypes, too. Be it Ancient Egypt, Greece or Caliphate. And common date implied in Arabian tales is around year 800(reign of…

Reason? Because fuck you that's why!

I thought that one with the stars was amazingly weird, but this? This I don't even...

Deadly Premonition is a bit of pain to play. I played it on 360 and later got the PSN re-release and couldn't bring myself to complete it for the second time, having already seen most of the story. But when you're diving into it first, suffering through action segments is hardly an issue. It's a Japanese open-world…

You're totally confusing things. It's not a ripoff, it's an excellent passionate homage.

You shouldn't have ditched your PS3 so fast. It got Tales of Xillia 2 and Fairy Fencer F just recently. And now Ar Nosurge is coming out, too, although I'd say it's a release of a lesser magnitude(a very niche subtype of JRPG) despite Kotaku highlighting it more.

Absolutely. However I'm not sure why would you limit yourself to Danganronpa. Seeing as you're interested in it, chances are, Vita has a lot of games you'll love.

B-but they aren't the same. The asterisk bearers regroup making for totally different fights. The crystal bosses are almost the same, with higher stats and sometimes a new attack, somewhat boring(but easy and fast anyway). But the optional bosses are super fun because of new challenges you face.

No Luke, please play some other game if you don't like the grind and don't spoil Bravely Default for the people who love it.

Every entry sold at least hundred thousand copies. That's OK for a niche title. If they need to spend millions on a text-only translation, that's an issue with SEGA and I feel like I have right to blame them for that.

What kind of resources does it exactly take? Do you know an estimate? Looking at previous entries, they are all but guaranteed at least $2M revenue. Seeing as this is close to the budgets of entire RPGs or adventure games with voice acting funded on Kickstarter, I'd say a text-only translation should not probably be…
