23? Nice, but I’m more partial to this 23.

Pascal Langdale, it must be said, is one hell of a voice actor. He delivers one of the best, non-verbal representations of pain that I’ve ever heard.

Considering the relative success of Steins;Gate in Europe (or UK at least, but I’m pretty sure that quite a few sales came from continental Europe, like mine, to start with), I wouldn’t dismiss a localisation just yet.

Right, that’s what I read in different reviews, not my word for it, for I haven’t played the still unreleased PS4 version. Sorry, I should have been more precise, and I’m sad as well to see the franchise leave the Vita.

That’s Japan for you: everything has been cleaned up the next minute!

I would add to Eledonkeyfunk’s list the DanganRonpa series, Virtue’s Last Reward (still, play 999 on the DS before), Steins;Gate, Corpse Party: Blood Drive, Muramasa Rebirth, Gravity Rush (if you don’t have a PS4), plus a few more that I can’t think of, at the moment.

Thanks. I know only too well our problem: when I was a kid, I used to read about games in magazines, and then I would wait for the games to be released, and it seemed to take forever.

OK, dont do what I did. I was getting close to the ending of Suikoden when I realised that I failed to recruit one of the “stars of destiny” (the recruitable characters that join your castle and help you in the quests). Next thing I know, I fiddle with my saves and, bam, I erase them all...

A team from the Italian gaming website geekgamer.it made an interview of the series creator and the character designer, translated in the video below.

Please, don’t remind me of the Shadow Hearts series. It deserves a rerelease so much that it hurts...

I can only assume that this is my fault.

“on my nerves for the first chapters” d’oh!

And then you reach the point when everything you took for granted is turned on its head, and boy is it brilliant!

Thanks for making us discover such artists, Bashcraft. Starts like your standard melancholic pop fare, enters a shoegaze guitar-led vibe, and moments later it turns into something prog-rockish. Wow! After importing Oeil’s CDs, it looks like I’ve got to check Japanese record shops again! Thanks!

Don’t worry, Kabosu. To me, you’re still beautiful.

Fully agreed. If Doug really wanted to stand out of the crowd, the giraffe was the way to go... And there was some money left to buy the compulsory convertible anyway, just because... giraffe!

Yay! András made my day, and now you just saved it! Thanks!

When the missus discovers it, I’ll put the blame on you, András! You’d better be prepared...

At first, I thought it was a cartoon triceratops. A triceratops that jumps. Is anything cooler than that?

Correction: ‘Machida-san’. D’oh!
