Feb release for Heavy Rain! Epic win. Sony has so much in the first 3 months.

Would be in line with the 2/16 date American retailers are listing for the game.

True. Hope Sony says something soon about the game. Just having confirmation would confirm the first few months of 2010 will rock on the PS3. :D

Master Miller origin story~!!

big boss kills Rotor, a beautiful robot lady who has helicopter blades in her back that let her fly (she is the best master of helicopter combat in the world)

super drebin the first calls up big boss over the protonet: "snake. rotor lived a sad life. when she was a little girl, soldiers attacked her village. they shot and killed all her family and threw them into spinning blades. but then the blades became helicopter blades on a helicopter and sliced up the soldiers. but snake. there was no helicopter, it was just rotor. except there was a helicopter, since she invented the first helicopter right there all by herself (she pooped it out) since she is the world's best helicopter person. shooting her in the face cleansed her soul, snake. also, i have a son... his name is... drebin."

big boss sighs. "i'm sure that won't be important." (rolls eyes, audience chuckles at dramatic irony)

Please... no one spoil MGS4 in this thread.
Snake almost dies but he kills Snake and then there's a big stupid twist when Snake talks to Snake when you think Snake is dead and Snake is just about to die.

I guarantee we're going to see a lot of these March titles get pushed back (or maybe even forward). There's just too much.

Too bad no one is scanning more REGINLEIV. We only know the voice actor for the male character.... Daisuke Namikawa. I really want to know who's voicing the female character. :(

Looks more story heavy than EDF games. Cutscenes, voice acting... Maybe Nintendo of America won't localize this after all.

More info on the Atlus game, please.

It's not like a game really requires either of those things for NoA to decide to take a pass.

It's an "adventure RPG" and it is part of the Tokyo Majin series. It has pretty much nothing to do with the megaten side of Atlus, unless they're suddenly developing this one themselves now. It's more likely that this could be the game that Murayama's firm is working on the scenario for, since he has worked on recent Tokyo Majin games previously. I don't think you'll be very interested in it.

Did Disaster have a heavy emphasis on cutscenes too? :(

Oh. I guess not. I didn't even know what Tokyo Majin was. I just looked it up.

I think Atlus is just cashing in on the Persona branding they have going with their name at the moment. So it makes some business sense to be using their association to push another RPG with a fantasy/occult and school life setting. Although... yeah they're really not anything close to being similar. Lol.

I refuse to believe that even a Toshinden game is worse than Samurai Spirits Sen. :lol How in the hell did Sen get 6's and 7's from them?

Wait, is Sen the 3D one? I haven't paid attention to SS since Tenka.

Yes, Samurai Spirits Sen = Samurai Shodown Edge Of Destiny.

I made a PSA for it:

Samurai Spirits Sen/Samurai Shodown Edge Of Destiny Public Service Announcement

***THIS GAME IS COMPLETE GARBAGE. DO NOT BUY. IT PLAYS LIKE A BAD 3D FIGHTER FROM 1995. AVOID AT ALL COSTS***

This has been a public service announcement from the What-The-Fuck-Happened-With-SS Foundation. Please pass this along to anyone who expresses interest in this title; SNK cannot be rewarded with our money for releasing this kind of trash.

The $39.99 price point is their way of saying "yeah, we know it's crap and hope to get a few suckers to unload this game on!"

Avoid, avoid, AVOID. I cannot say this enough. And this is coming from a mega-huge SNK fan and fan of the developer's (K2) Tenchu games.

You know how KOF XII was a major disappointment? At least at its core it had good game play. Can't say the same thing for Sen. K2 fucked up on it BIG TIME.
