So I just heard Hyperdimension Neptunia is making another sequel/alternate universe. With some delicious designs

Just yes please.
Known about this for a while but nice.
Also nice is that Keiji Inafune is getting another cameo in it as well.

I'm pretty sure Pascal is the best.

But yeah, I dunno. Something about Graces f prevents me from really enjoying it, and I can't quite figure out what it is.
Yeah, Pascal's pretty cool. I like Sophie better overall cause she's a cool character and party member, whereas Pascal isn't that great in battles. Her health is so stupid low and she's got no healing spells to make up for it. It's kind of crazy that Sophie gets high HP, high attack power, and has healing/revive spells.

I'm a little sad that I won't be able to get Atelier Meruru this Tuesday at my local gamestop... but that's fine!

I decided to pre-order from the site to get that barrel t-shirt instead.
Not sure why I haven't been pre-ordering from the site before... I'm stuck with just the standard HDN2 game =(

I might just get Dragon's Dogma too even though I don't know anything about it/haven't played the demo.
Ivalset
Just started watching a live stream of dragon's dogma at http://www.own3d.tv/live/33395/GyoruSPY

I'm seriously on the fence but the more I watch of it the better it looks. I'll probably end up getting it.

Might get Dragon's Dogma. I'm currently waiting for how well it does with reviews.

I take it back. I said Pascal was a bad party member. I've been going through the different characters to get their "Use X character in 100 battles" titles. Pascal has some fucking kickass A-Artes. She can pretty much hit shit from miles away. Her health's not much of an issue if you hit people from all the way across the screen. Hubert is also fucking awesome to play as. He's got some pretty ridiculous combos, and his dual pistols are nice. I'm starting to think Asbel's not the best person to control.

Edit: I played as Sophie finally. It should be illegal to be as fast and strong as she is. She's the most fun to play out of any of them.

Pascal can rack up the damage quite a bit if you use her B artes correctly. Granted I mostly use "Fangirl Dream".

Demo for Max Anarchy (Anarchy Reigns) came out on JP psn last night. Game is super fun and it's fully translated in English with an option in the menus. It's like a crazy brawler.



p.s. mathilda is the best

hide your wife, hide your husband, there's a transformer in this game

So it finally came through the mail and I opened up the shipping box. I removed the bubble wrap and all I saw was the limited edition box with the game inside and I was like "where's the shirt?" I then proceeded to write an email to the company as to why it wasn't included. Before clicking the send button, I decided to remove the wrapping from the box and open it up. The shirt was inside there! A shirt fitted itself inside that box! What the heck!

I thought the barrel picture would be more realistic as it did on the site... but doesn't matter, got shirt.

Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One? That Lara Croft: Guardian of Light game that's supposed to be decent? Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, I guess? Not to mention good games like Just Cause 2, Saints Row 2, and Sideway: New York. And inFamous 2, if you're into that sort of thing. Sony's finally made a good case for PS+. This is just the excuse I need to finally get it.

By the way, did they get rid of full game trials or am I just not finding any? They're under Exclusives...

I'm not sure if I should subscribe to PS+ or just spend the money I'd use for it on games.

That's the mentality I had for the past two years, but now they've finally put up a bunch of quality games that instantly give me a profit over my $50. There's $300 worth of games on there for free. The R&C game I wanna get is $60. Any games I get after that is just a bonus. This isn't even including any discounts I'll get for games I wanna buy anyway. They've actually gotten better about discounting decent games, like Journey. Even if there's only one game on this list of 12 that you wanna play, but for some reason don't wanna play any others, then you've still got an entire year to make up the difference. So chances are you'd probably get other shit to make up for it. Actually, since you don't get a lot of games on day 1, there are probably a lot of older games that they'll put up for free that you might wanna get.

The problem is my perceived value of digital games is lower than physical copies and is lowered even further since I am not actually purchasing the games.
Also it's the Australian PSN, which basically gets screwed over constantly.

Oh, right, I forgot you're Austrailian. That is a problem since the selection is different for each region. Like I think if I had the PAL selection, I'd be less excited because it doesn't have Ratchet. It does have Darksiders, Outland, and Renegade Ops though. But that's not quite as worth it. Anyway, I've had a bunch of extra money lately cause I haven't bought a game in a month since Tales of Graces is taking waaaaaaay too long.

Saints Row 2 is such a cool game.

That skeeball scene might be the greatest cutscene I've ever watched in a video game ever.

With you there. I really need to get The Third at some point.

Ok, here's the stupidest thing about the PS3 now. Ratchet's a 14 gig download. I cleared up space so I could download that. Now I need to clear up 14 additional gigs just to install the damn thing. That makes no sense. I've only got a 40 gig PS3. I've deleted all of my game data and I'm still 2 gigs shy, which also makes no sense. I don't know how I'd have 9 gigs or whatever of save files.
Ivalset
Should probably look into getting a new hard drive; 40gb is extremely limited. I've heard the process is quite painless.

Mine's a 120gb slim so it's generally workable for me.
adam2046
I think I've got a 500GB jammed in my PS3. We also have Play TV, so a chunk of that's filled with random episodes of The Closer and The Mentalist.
Apparently the large size is the cause of the issues I get when playing the Gundemonium games.
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
FUCK. MY. ASS. I had about 2 more gigs that I needed to free up, right? So I went through my save data and starting deleting everything that wasn't nailed down, basically. Any games I didn't own anymore, stuff I didn't need, like extra Fallout saves, stuff like that. I must've had about 500mb to go or something. Then I realized that I still had Playstation Home installed. It was over 3 gigs.

Anyway, yeah, I got my PS3 back in 2008 or something, so 40 gig was one of the only sizes and it cost quite a lot. I don't wanna drop the money on a new hard drive, because if I do, the next day my PS3 will die and I'll have to either fix it or get a new one anyway. And if I'm really lucky, I can just wait long enough and get a PS4. Although I doubt that'll happen.

Yeah, I know, assuming that the 37 gig max in System Information means 3 gigs are system crap. Even if the system stuff is part of the 37, it was still a big difference.

ZOMG HYPERDIMENSION NEPTUNIA V: VICTORY GONNA BE LEGENDARY!!!!!!!!

:D
awp
okay Ival I got Resonance of Fate just for you
Ivalset
Wow, about time.

Also, you should have said for Selphie as well, I'm pretty sure he likes the game almost as much as I do, if not more.
awp
he's less likely to point a gun at my head if I pass up the opportunity to buy it for 19 bucks
Ivalset
I'd point a gun at your head just for having that deplorable avatar.
awp
yeah, it is pretty adorable. I could set your avatar to it as well and we'd be BFFs

Resonance of Fate is pretty rad. I've gotten the base mechanics down by now, and I'm partway into Chapter 2. First two chapters were really short; are they all that quick or do they get longer over time?
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
It goes back and forth between short and long. If you're doing all of the guild requests and arena matches, the chapters should be longer. The main game itself isn't all that long because it's meant for multiple playthroughs. You could rush through a second playthrough in about a day or two.
awp
I heard a second playthrough can be done in like 7 hours. I've been doing all the missions/arena because missions go away when a chapter ends and there's a trophy for that

iirc you can do the arena at any time, it's just in your best interest to do it asap
YodaSnipe
Depends on the chapter, for the length. You should keep up in the arena simply because when you want to farm levels at (arena 45 i think?) you know, you don't have to go from start allllll the way to that point :D. But yeah you can do it anytime. I freaking love resonance of fate <3333
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
Yeah, you can farm the MG levels on the bronze/silver/gold slimes in the arena (somewhere), and HG/Grenade levels on 45. Filling out all of the hexes is really annoying to do in that game. The animation when you find a treasure on a hex is so damn annoying once you see it about 100 times.

So I got Quantum Conundrum. It's like Portal if Portal wasn't funny and had crappy FPS platforming gameplay. The puzzles are fine, but it sucks that simply figuring out how to do a puzzle doesn't guarantee that you beat it. Because there's so much platforming bullshit. Also, the physics aren't exact, so the same thing can happen twice, but two different things could happen. Also, when you pick up an item in Portal, it reorients itself in your hands so you always hold it the same way. Not in Quantum Conundrum. Which is dumb, because a lot of objects you need to use are oddly shaped.
