SRPG: The new black.

Is that the same Haruhi game we've seen with the dancing stuff or was that another one?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #176 on:** September 04, 2008, 08:32:31 AM »

Different one...The other game is purely a music/rhythm game...

Is it wrong for me to be excited about a new Shining Force? As my avatar shows it is my favorite game series. I know Camelot is still gone but its finally back to a strategy rpg again. I can deal with the new style but I'm scared of setting myself up for a fall. I could avoid Neo because it was arpg for some stupid reason but now they just sucked me back in and I can't not buy this game. They are obviously putting some money and effort into this with the famous character designer. Tell me its gonna be ok. Please, somebody?

Okay! Flight Plan is behind the Summon Night games, which happen to be a lot of fun! So this game should turn out pretty fun, too!

That good enough for you? =)

(from that 428 thing)

Wait, is that Arcueid?

It does list Type-Moon in the corner, I wonder what that text says...

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #182 on:** September 10, 2008, 04:29:39 PM »

It says that Type-Moon is doing the bonus scenario that will be included with the main game... =)

KDR_11k · « **Reply #183 on:** September 11, 2008, 01:32:04 AM »

So the bonus scenario is in the anime style while the rest of the game is made of photographs?

I assume some of the people in those pictures are famous in Japan?

Phantasy Star Zero is something that I've been wishing would happen for a long time. I played the original PSO on the DC to death, staying up until 2 AM playing it back when that was unusual for me. They immediately lost me when they started charging monthly fees, but now it's back to its roots and I can't wait to get it.

It's basically a live-action game, like those of the the Sega CD era, but with less interactive gameplay...

And I wouldn't know...I don't follow Japanese TV... =)

KDR_11k · « **Reply #186 on:** September 12, 2008, 03:01:51 AM »

I figured you'd know since you can even remember VA names.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #187 on:** September 12, 2008, 08:44:19 AM »

Haha, isn't that like assuming someone who reads the comics section in the newspaper to know what's going on in the editorials?

Japanese TV is pretty much as uninteresting to me as Western TV for the most part (except for GameCenter CX!)

KDR_11k · « **Reply #188 on:** September 12, 2008, 09:42:35 AM »

I thought there's some overlap between idol singers and voice actors.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #189 on:** September 12, 2008, 10:48:53 AM »

Oh there's certainly those in the VA world that also do singing (including anime drama CD stuff and original material), but most of them tend to stay in those fields (due to their contracts with their talent agency, etc)...At least all of the ones I follow do... =)

TV is better when it's on-demand on the interwibble.

Japanese TV is even better with Hard Gay.

HOOOOOO!

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #192 on:** September 16, 2008, 04:04:08 PM »

I found this. It is a new RPG made by Sega. It is suppose to be revealed in the September 26th issue of Famitsu.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #193 on:** September 16, 2008, 04:26:36 PM »

Rieko Kodama? Why won't Sega let her work on a Skies sequel? =(

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #194 on:** September 16, 2008, 05:36:33 PM »

Skies of Dragoonia.

Caliban · « **Reply #195 on:** September 16, 2008, 06:33:29 PM »

I hope this game is related to Skies of Arcadia.

I've never heard of Monster Hunter, but looking at those screens........I must say, I'm at least interested.

Can someone tell me two things:

1. Are those in-game screen shots?

2. What exactly is this game?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #198 on:** September 17, 2008, 12:33:12 AM »

1. Yes...

2. Well, it's an ARPG where y...Hey! Wait a second! Do your own damn research!

Caliban · « **Reply #199 on:** September 17, 2008, 01:05:57 AM »

*drools at awesome armour artwork*

I'm surprised Kashogi doesn't know Monster Hunter. I'm sure it has been mentioned a few times somewhere in the forums.
