Nice, thanks for the anime recommendation: I won’t have to think twice! As for the dubbing, I have to hope that it’s just as good in French! ;)

It’s true that the visual novel requires an awful lot of time, but the different endings are well worth it, for they are absolutely gripping. If you’re just curious, I’m pretty sure that you can find playthroughs on youtube, so you don’t have to go through the full VN (I can’t believe that I’m writing that!). But good…

I’m so glad that you mention Steins;Gate, Jason. It seldom gets a mention, when looking back on 2015, no matter what website/blog you check, even though it’s certainly what I’ll remember from 2015, gaming-wise. I just hope that thanks to your top 10, more fellow Kotakuites will get curious about it: sure, it starts…

When I mentioned Shadow Hearts, I had the series in mind, rather than the first game (if you don’t count Koudelka that I hadn’t the chance to play), maybe it wasn’t clear. But you sure are allowed to criticize the whole series! I agree that the jokes are not always subtle, but they are never mean-spirited, and they…

Thanks!

An HD remaster would be total bliss, but I’m with you here, I would even buy just a standard re-issue. The thing is that Aruze still owns the IP (or Universal Entertainment Corporation, as they’re called now), which they renewed last year, but they just sit on it! Their core business involves pachinko/pachislot (hello…

Fully agreed. Saying that P3 has the more gripping story can trigger endless debates among Persona fans, but the truth must be told! ;)

I’m a regular Kotaku reader, but I don’t post that much. I know for sure that Jason has unearthed the JRPG list, when all of a sudden my star/reply counter gets an unexpected boost... And it’s endearing that Shadow Hearts still gets such fond comments from fellow Kotakuites.

Same here, got that Roger Wilco vibe as well (the janitor thing, right?). Could be a Space Quest prequel then, and I’d be queueing to buy it.

Right! I did as well for my Japanese PSN account, so yeah, you’re right, there’s always a solution!

Well spotted! You need a keen eye and a taste for Studio4°C to notice it, right?

Is it already up for reservation on the US PS Store? Here in Europe, nothing on the store, not even a mention on the PS blog. Makes me wonder if it’s just a US release for the time being, and Gio Corsi didn’t specify the launch territories. If so, I would be a sad panda, really!

No... Tell it like it is! You were not blind, you were just testing your readers’ attention. ;)

I can’t imagine that Sega will pay much attention to the Yakuza 5 sales. They fully know that the PS3 is on its way out, littlre by little. The real test will be Yakuza 0, so let’s hope that it does well, as Yakuza fans.

Yakuza 5, Fahey, Yakuza 5!! On Tuesday!

Wow, 2 PS3s, that didn’t even cross my mind! Tried playing SSX3 on my launch PS3, and it would freeze every now and then (I know it’s sort of normal, it’s all about winter, after all...). So, the PS2 had to stay (had to replace its power unit). As for the PS3, it’s still running, and it never missed a beat. And it had…

Only reason why the PS2 is still plugged in the TV. OK, Rez is the main reason. Give me SSX3 on the PS4, and it can retire.

White European here, but I never played any CoD... Therefore, I guess that I don’t qualify as a male, according to Activision standards. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Still, there’s a new game planned for both the Vita and the PS4, right?
