Battle system is pretty extreme. Almost like an action game in regards to exploits you can use.

awp
It's a Tetsuya Nomura game though, so if you like his other games, I imagine you'll like this one. That's what I'm expecting - I expect I'll really enjoy it, solely because of Nomura.

But I'm cheeeeap.

EDIT: ARGH WHAT BATTLE TRANSITIONS whyyyyyy why are you still doing battle transitions Final Fantasy get out of the fucking 90s already
Bestelle
If you're getting it, don't bother with the English version. After hearing that they're apparently replacing the song with "My Hands" by some chick, I was extremely happy. Then I heard the song, it was ear rape. Of course this is just my opinion about that song. Not sure if others will like it.
Otherwise, the game looks great, and I have no problems with the voice overs.

Seibei4211
That's a pretty good philosophy. If the theme song sucks, don't get it. Who cares about gameplay? That's why Kingdom Hearts was so great. It had a great theme song. But seriously though, I don't think I like the English dub as much as the Japanese one, but whatever. As long as the battles are good.

awp: I think you're thinking of Final Fantasy Versus XIII. He's directing that one. Also, those battle transitions suck a bit. That stuff's gonna add up. Like in FFX, they were so annoying. In FFXII, there were none. I liked that, although it did make the game feel like an MMORPG.

Now those are a lot of exploits and crap that I know I will never ever bother with. Good grief. Although, then again, I have no idea what most of that shit does yet. I know the gambits from FFXII were wtf until I got used to them. So useful.
awp
The one that was in that trailer, with the Seifer clone and that - pretty sure that's Nomura too. I read as much, somewhere. He (Nomura) tends to to that (Seifer -> Beat -> ...Snow, was it? Dude with black toque. They all kinda look similar.)
Topic Starter
Seibei4211
Nomura's an artist in FFXIII, but he's directing FFvsXIII. The guy in that one has that wicked name, Noctis. I can't wait for that one. It's supposed to be like a more mature Kingdom Hearts. I never knew he was the guy that directed TWEWY.

did you stay away from TWEWY entirely? It was blisteringly apparent from the game box alone, but it also tells you it's a Tetsuya Nomura game about 4 minutes in.

Well, I did think that the main dude looked a lot like Sora, but I thought it was just a coincidence. Other than knowing the basic gist of the battle system and seeing the box art, I did stay away from it entirely.

Man, Bayonetta is some fun shit. Beat it on normal, playing through hard/unlocking other shit/just fighting motherfuckers, now.

My index and middle fingers are in serious pain from all the dodging and shit though. The parry/counter bracelet is awesome.
awp
Disgaea is worth twice as much as 70 dollar titles like Prototype and RE5 (though RE5 finally dropped to like 35 dollars) because you get like quadruple the play-time from it. I know I exceeded 200 hours. I didn't even buy the second-storyline DLC. idk I don't like Raspberyl. Though, apparently Flonne gets up to some antics, I imagine it's only for like half a chapter.

I know, man. Good shit. Moon of Mahaa whatever's pretty cool. Have you tried Evil Rosary yet? Pretty fun on Hard/Non-Stop. You should get the Saifung, dude. Fucking gunchucks, bro. They're kinda lame, but, you know, GUNCHUCKS.

I had tons of fun with Disgaea 3 as well. And I don't even give a shit about getting all the trophies. That game is sweet as hell.

I'm hoping White Knight Chronicles is rad (for something to do until final fantasy 13)

Yeah, I tried the rosary out a bit and was surprised at how much damage it does for how easy it is to dodge.

For some reason I've been using the Onyx Roses on both arms and legs all the time now while going through hard. I didn't even use them on my first playthrough really. Damage isn't even all that stellar, but popping up next to an enemy in Witch Time, shotgunning them in the face, and watching them shoot into the air is way satisfying. And Kilgore is so OP I feel dirty using them.

I'll get the saifung today and see how they are.

And I'm getting Disgaea 3 today most likely. I know D3 is packed with replay value, but it's been so long since I've played an action game that was so much fucking fun.

Saifung's hella weak, but she does the Bruce Lee yell, so it's awesome. There's also, like, no combos for it. Have you tried doing the Kilgore Combo? THAT is ridiculous, but so funny.

I bodyblocked selvaria with the eidelweiss. Got an A rank. My 3 lancers and an engineer never left the top trenches and my tank took out everyone who came with selvaria.

4 lancers, spawned one lancer at the lower left camp and had him wreck the walls then had him help take down the tank.

White Knight's online is pretty cool and fun, but the single player experience seems a bit eh. I'll probably just rush past the main storyline and spend the rest of my days dicking around on online.

I got Star Ocean for the 360. It was good, somewhat similar to the one PS2. I stopped playing because my xbox froze after about 4 hours of none saved gameplay. damn scarce saves. It doesn't even save when you change the disc. wtf is that?

Difficulties in an RPG are okay so long as they don't make you unlock them. Given that the learning curve in RPGs tends to be much lower than in other games, someone who catches on quick is probably safe to step up the difficulty early on.

Yeah, it might be fine if you could just skip to the hardest one and get it over with, but there's two extra difficulties in SO4 and you have to unlock them both. 3 playthroughs minimum if you wanna beat the hardest.

Skip cutscenes. It's really not that bad. I beat Star Ocean 3 four times or so, everything goes by pretty quick once you skip all the dialogue and know what you're doing.

Maybe you're not hardcore enough?!

That RE5 DLC was hecka sweet. They don't let you use your earned guns and definitely no rocket launcher, so you're stuck with what very, very little they give you. And on Pro, they throw even more guys at you and it's just impossible to kill them all. Which is unsarcastically awesome. Got gangbanged so many times. It was hella scarier than the main game, too. They finally got some survival and some horror parts right in their "survival horror" game.

Oh man, I had a pretty hilarious glitch with the hooker. You know how when you first walk in, she's at her nightstand setting the alarm or whatever? Well, I don't know what I did, but for the entire time after that, whenever she'd try to move into position for a cutscene, she'd fly back to the nightstand after a couple of seconds. She just went back and forth like that the entire time until I was the FBI dude.

I should have had the GoW3 demo last month but my GoW Collection disc (which incidentally is missing THE THIRD GOD OF WAR GAME hi PSP is a real system too) was like invalid coupon since you bought this game used and I was like oh idc

I want to buy GoW3 but I just know it's going to launch at 60 or 70 dollars so I won't get to play it for a while since I'm cheap. Even with income, I'm not paying 70 for a game, even though it's a great game.

It's hard to get into a game that treats using an inhaler as a dramatic scene.

I played that God of War III demo and it just reminded me of how much it is exactly like God of War 1 and 2. I don't know if I can even go back to that after playing Bayonetta.

God of War 3 should be like God of War 1 and 2, because those games were perfect

The new Borderlands DLC's pretty awesome. The monster is awesome with the epic rocket launcher. But the Racer when I heard about sounded pretty awesome, but it turns out it's just a Runner with more speed and a spoiler. But the best part is that it's almost another fullblown game, there are enough missions to call it that.

The odd thing is though, I'm playing on my second playthrough but all the lance are showing the 1st playthrough names and the bandits are a mix 1st playthrough and 3rd playthrough names. Course the new level cap is amazing. And Chemical Troopers are my bane, makes my Defiler useless.
