I did a little research, and indeed the motion capture was performed with a ballet dancer, called Maria Udod (that will make your search that little easier). But what really blows me away is the fact that the onscreen character responds perfectly to the pad moves. I’ve watched a short hands-on video, and the moves…

I know, right?

I have a feeling that it could be an ecological tale, because of the lively colour palette used for the aquatic life, contrasting with the dark man-made structures. Then, I could be wrong: my opinions are always fishy...

I was waiting for Abzû since the few pictures we got during E3 2015... Not disappointed with what has been shown this week, it will be a definitive purchase (you can’t go wrong with Matt Nava and Austin Wintory), yet another game shown at E3 was high on artistic grounds as well, and I haven’t seen anything on Kotaku…

Is this the reason why No Man’s Sky was totally absent from Sony’s E3 conference, and seemingly from the showfloor as well? The sudden disappearance so close to the August release seems somewhat fishy, or is it just me?

I couldn’t agree more: favourite gaming news site, indeed... Even if you consider that I live in Europe and that English is not my mother tongue.

Visual-ish novels with puzzles, you say? Danganronpa, yes, of course, but Virtue’s Last Reward too (can’t wait for Zero Time Dilemma!), Corpse Party: Book of Shadows (the PSP game is on the PS Store) and BloodDrive... Plus pure VNs such as Steins;Gate, with Steins;Gate Zero coming West on the Vita too! Plus VNs that…

VC2 got a Western release, though... And if you can’t find it on the cheap in stores, it’s on the PS store, and it can be played with the Vita as well. It’s a pretty good game, a proper VC, even though you have to make do with repetitive game areas to accommodate the PSP. And gone is the canvas cell-shading... But I…

Yep, THAT point... But it puts the V in VC, doesn’t it?

I played VC on the PS3 and loved it to bits. I played VC2 on the PSP, I bought VC3 and one of these days I’ll have a try at emulating on PC with the English language patch... And because I want to send a message, I got the PS4 remastered version today, not that I want a VC2-VC3 collection, mind. In fact, I’m rather…

I’m torn between complaining that SH didn’t make this list, or feeling smug that it got so widely mentioned in the “best 20 JRPGs”... Anyway, even if it got the same recognition as FF, the SH series so good that it would still be underappreciated!

And we didn’t even have the holy hand grenade of Antiochus...

Same here. In fact, I get suspicious when I hear that some people are shocked by Senran Kagura. What kind of strange thoughts are they trying to repress, exactly? But I’m most probably dead inside, if I have to pick one of your two possibilities!

Welcome to the wonderful world of visual novels, Mr Walsh. And one could add “not quite book”...

When I saw that, I couldn’t believe my eyes either... If he ever picks it, I’m pretty sure that he’ll be comforted in his national superiority. Look at the French, they’re stuck with black and white! That, or he’ll have his A/V system checked...

Old game for the old console, but I quite liked The Last Guy, not a system seller for sure, but a modern reinterpretation of Pac-Man with a Google Maps twist.

No worries. PES fans will be delighted to hear that every player, every team, and every stadium will be featured in the UEFA Euro 2016 Pachinko machine.

I was looking for such a comment, thanks! I was (and I still am) quite fond of Unison, and their long-rumoured new LP should get a release this year, hopefully. Maybe there’s still some life left in witch house, then?

I have two Vitae (yep, show-off who happened to learn Latin here!), one PCH-1000 and one PCH-2000. OK, I got the PCH-1000 back from the missus, who didn’t give it any love.

As both a Vita player and a Danganronpa fan, I’m glad that more players are now able to enjoy Monokuma’s antics.
