Amen, as much as I love the films, I'll pass. All the hype and it wound up so mediocre.

It's not mediocre; it's bad.

Good to hear. I haven't played it and was merely going on the gameplay videos I've seen and reviews. I'll definitely be avoiding it altogether. Thanks for the heads up! Metal Gear Rising will hopefully turn out alright.. On my way to pick it up now. I rarely ever make day 1 purchases these days.

I found Jak and Daxter HD Collection for $10 in a clearance bin... Avoided these in my PS2 days but I've read good things.

I just played a bit and it's pretty cool. Pure Japanese nonsensical insanity.

So PS4 was announced along with a inFAMOUS Second Son, Killzone Shadow Fall, and Watchdogs. A new exclusive game called Knack will be on it too.

Deep Down = DD = Dragon's Dogma. So yay, Dragon's Dogma sequel. First one was pretty neat. Personally that was the most interesting thing shown at the conference.

There's an expansion to the original (which comes with the entire original game on the disc with it) called Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen and it's releasing for PS3/360 soon. Best of all they are pricing it at only $39.99. I'm getting it!

rpd123 · 02-22-2013, 04:39 PM

Dragon's Dogma is awesome. I didn't think about Deep Down being a sequel, that's cool. And yeah, I'm gonna get the expansion too.

You guys going to get PS4 or the next Xbox? Or both? The PS4 is looking pretty sweet right now, looking forward to what Microsoft has planned.

I'll be swapping it for Metal Gear tomorrow!

I picked myself up a 3DS XL last night, along with Paper Mario Sticker Star. Pretty ballin' game so far, as always.

*Cure* · 02-25-2013, 11:11 AM

I'm playing Ni No Kuni. Not very impressed so far.

愛 · 02-25-2013, 11:14 AM

Because Studio Ghibli is terrible. And this is coming from an anime guy.

I know a lot of the regulars aren't PC people, but is anyone looking forward to SimCity? I'm a bit scared it's going to be awful even though I played the beta and had a great time. With the whole video game industry going that casual route, the complexity that made the franchise fun may be ruined.

*Zulithe* · 02-25-2013, 12:20 PM

Ni No Kuni is really good, it's just not the flawless, amazing gem the JRPG genre really needs to kickstart interest again here in the west the say FF7 did back in the day. It's really grindy and there's a ton of fetch quests. I still think it's the best JRPG to be releases in English since at least Xenoblade, and if you discount Xenoblade it's probably the best in a long time. I'm talking strictly consoles here, cause clearly there's some great stuff on handhelds (Persona 4 Golden being a major one!) Anyway I'm in the last dungeon and plan on working through most (or all if I can sustain interest) of the post-game content. I'd like to Plat it but we'll see. Haters can say what they want, but I love Studio Ghibli and we have gotten so few JRPGS on the PS3 that I'm really thankful for this game.

Anyway I'm mostly playing my 3DS. Got Fire Emblem: Awakening and it has me totally enthralled. Etrian Odyssey IV is tomorrow, think i'll pick it up to. Then there's Monster Hunter and Luigi's Mansion also hitting 3DS really soon... now is the perfect time to jump on the 3DS bandwagon for those that have been holding off.

I want SimCity but the city size has me really turned off. The maximum size is so small you'd be hard pressed to call it a "city" -- more like a town.

*Cure* · 02-25-2013, 05:23 PM

I literally fell asleep during Ni No Kuni today. Jesus Christ.

*Brodie* · 02-25-2013, 05:42 PM

That's some pretty telling ****.
