That's honestly pretty much what I was expecting from the game.

Sounds perfect to me. Those cutscenes are the reason I got the game, so it's good that there's a lot. The gameplay itself is so-so, but still pretty cool. Also, they did something different and outrageous, which is more than I can say for 98% of games these days. Creativity should definitely be rewarded. In any case, I can't play that game anyway until I beat Kingdoms of Amalur in a decade or so.
Making a game that is mostly cutscenes is not something I'd classify as good creativity.
Since the game isn't really much of a "game" than it is an anime box set with interactive segments inserted, I might wait a while for the price to drop before I pick it up.
Might as well see how Binary Domain holds up.

So, what, Heavy Rain wasn't a good game? That game was awesome and it is nothing but an interactive movie. So I guess Asura's Wrath isn't that creative, since it just took what Heavy Rain did, cut out the bullshit, and made the interactive sections more fun. How horrible.
Of course it wasn't a good game. It was a good movie.

That's true. LA Noire and Phoenix Wright don't have great gameplay aspects, yet they're still great. God of War has good gameplay, but the cutscenes were more brutal than ridiculous. Bayonetta's the only game I can think of that has great gameplay and a lot of truly ridiculous cutscenes. The only thing that sucked about those cutscenes was the fact that there was a button press you had to do in a handful of cutscenes that would kill you if you missed it. They were random and stupid. At least in Asura's Wrath and God of War, you'd be stupid to not expect them.
Its not that I find the game bad (I was actually rather hyped when I watched the trailers). I just feel it would be justified for me to buy it when its cheaper since it can be finished within a weekend and there's not much replay value from what I hear. I mean, I live in Australia, prices for games can be ridiculous up to $89.99. Not to mention there's tons of other games I want to check out as well which recently came out. I'm still going to play it...just not at the moment.
Just call it bad. It's a movie.
Just wait for once I feel the price is good enough until I can give my final verdict.Ivalset wrote:

It's going to take a while for it to fall to around/below movie ticket prices.
Once it reaches about $60.00 or so it should be fine. I've been meaning to get my hands on Catherine, Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2, Binary Domain and even The Last Story for Wii anyway.

Well, the Killzone 3 multiplayer is going to be free on the Playstation Store and I'm definitely going to get it! Sure, there is going to be a certain level ranking limit but I'll deal with it. 
Edit: Damn... I just found out that once you reach the ranking limit, you either have to pay or quit. It's kind of like a demo.... Well, this sucks. :/

I never noticed this before, but awp's been updating his list of games on the first page.
Anyway, after a solid 18 days of nonstop playing, Kingdoms of Amalur is finally done. I'll probably never play a better western RPG than that, but that's not saying much. Also, for such a huge fucking game, it never froze once. And it never got old for me. I've moved onto Fear 2 cause I wanna see if it is, in fact, a scary game. So far, there's been too much boring FPS crap.

I've played a lot more snes/psx era games but my sense of nostalgia isn't strong enough for me to care about most of them.
Hey man, anime isn't for everyone, personally I'm a HUGE fan of the Ar Tonelico series, and to quote Rantai, my MK2 is being shipped now too! college wut nao?
I think FF13 was ok cool story, and looks pretty wasn't all that though. FF13-2 on the other hand is one of my favourite games in my inventory, same with Resonance of Fate damn that game is just so awesome.
I never played any of the star ocean series, but i thought that was more anime style? same with persona or at least that's how it felt to me when I played p3.

Star Ocean 3 isn't anime enough to bother me, neither is Persona 3/4. If a game is difficult enough and/or enjoyable enough I can overlook a lot of things.
I think I liked 13 more than I liked 13-2, even though 13 was certainly a flawed game. 13-2 is also criminally short; it's hard for me to justify the purchase of a game that lasts less than 30 hours, especially considering my wkc2 save file has recently surpassed 2000 hours.

From what I've gathered after playing for about an hour, it's definitely better than the first game in a number of ways. Combat's much faster-paced and a bit more challenging, the skills are a lot less frustrating since it now just depends if you have enough AP to use it, dungeons are slightly more interesting, enemies are more creative and possibly a few other things.
Nepgear is adorable.
But yeah the two biggest things I noticed were the upgrade in environments and the music. It's at least decent now opposed to abysmal.
Also I quite like the use of the models in dialogue now, purely personal but seeing them move at 60 fps is something else.
Lol yuri too

Assassin's creed 3 (starts drooling:D)
Setting for Assassin's Creed 3 is going to be really interesting. I'm excited about it based on that alone.
Topic Starter
I'm happy they're finally making a new Assassin's Creed game instead of remaking the same one. New traversal, new combat style, new free-running style, etc. And they're apparently ditching the castle defense thing they stuffed into Revelations, so that's nice. A bow and arrow will be cool to use. I wanna see what they mean when they say that momentum is a big part of combat now. It seems like it'll be less counter-based, so that's cool.
Edit: So yeah, I got really bored with Fear 2. Fighting the same fucking enemies with boring guns over and over just to get an occasional, not-even-scary pop-up... Trying out Bioshock. I don't know why I didn't like this game when I tried the demo, because I'm having fun with it.

Tower defense sucked, and spamming counter kills although cool as hell did get boring. Is it just me or is this franchise meant for a controller, playin on pc just doesn't feel the same, had to plug in my Xbox controller lol
For some reason I don't like bioshock as well... I think I've figured it out why, it's te time period, I don't really like anything set far into the future or bioshock's time period (modern yet ancient ala la noire)Seibei4211 wrote:

So I finally started up Asura's Wrath. Played Part 1 (Episode 1-6). Holy fucking shit, I underestimated how awesome this game would be. I knew this game would be outrageous, but I never thought I'd be fighting a duel when I don't have any arms. And then kick ass. The fighting is so fun in this, too. It's so fast-paced and exaggerated. If this is just a movie, then it is the greatest movie I'll ever fucking see. I did underestimate how many cutscenes there would be in this game, but I don't give a shit cause every cutscene is awesome. Or hilarious. Or hilariously awesome.

2 more trophies until the mk2 plat!

Last chapter on mk2 right now.
I still haven't gotten Noire join my party yet since there are barely any quests to raise Lastation's shares in Lastation and yet Arfoire doesn't have any shares to mooch off anymore since I already got rid of all of them.
Well, at least I'm almost done. Been playing it for about a week now.
EDIT: Just beat the game with the Normal and Human/Makers Endings. Time to get those other endings if I can.
