[Sayah]

Can't wait for more Tag 2 news. Game of the Forever.

 

[Penguin]

Oh Namco was serious about Tank!Tank!Tank! I guess

 

[kayos90]

I guess they don't have anything to show for Xillia or they're still trying to heavily present/market Graces.

 

[Desmond]

No Naruto?

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Wish they'd do an HD collection of Ace Combat.

 

[LuuKyK]

I guess they don't have anything to show for Xillia or they're still trying to heavily present/market Graces.

Yeah, they will probably wait for Graces f to launch etc.

And I can't wait to play Ni No Kuni. Ugh.

 

[Aguirre]

dark souls and one piece GET

day 1

 

[ULTROS!]

Wish they'd do an HD collection of Xenosaga.

Fixed

 

[SolsticeZero]

Mmmmmmmmmmm

Dark Souls

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Ninokuni, Tales of and One Piece. Great line up.

Probs my fave publisher at the mo.

 

[DR2K]

How much is One piece going to be?

 

[KillerTravis]

Why Namco Bandai decided to sell Tank Tank Tank! at retail instead of a premium digital download is beyond me. It will completely bomb.

 

[Het_Nkik]

First time Tank! Tank! Tank! is playable? Looks really fun from the videos I've seen so I definitely want to hear impressions.

 

[hiro4]

Sounds like a pretty good line up.
Kinda curious for Tank! Tank! Tank! The other games I already have preordered.

It's local multiplayer only too afaik. Kind of hard to believe.

Tanked! Tanked! Tanked!

Gamescom 2012: Namco Bandai reveals line-up

Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition
Tales Of Graces F
Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch

This is not the Bandai Namco that I knew.

 

[PixelHorror]

Dark Souls...

So they were waiting for Gamescon to show new stuff about the PC port. Well by that time we'll see the final build, working.

 

[Boerseun]

Tank! Tank! Tank! looks like superb fun. Day one for me.

Regarding the rest, I hope they announce Wii U versions of those games not already coming to the platform. A Wii U version of Tales of Graces f would be especially welcome.

 

[Speedymanic]

Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition

What is this? DLC?

 

[SolsticeZero]

What is this? DLC?

Yep. New weapons, areas, bosses, etc. Sold as a complete game for PC/360/PS3 or just as DLC for PS3/360

 

[LuuKyK]

What is this? DLC?

The new version for consoles and PC with new content iirc.

edit: beaten.

 

[Orayn]

Please let Dark Souls PC be...

1. Direct feed.
2. Good.

 

[Katana_Strikes]

How much is One piece going to be?

£24.99 from thehut and Zavvi right now. £34.99 most other places.

 

[dot]

No Naruto?

Probably don't wanna show it yet until it's a bit more complete. I'm gonna say they'll show more Naruto at TGS.

It's too bad there won't be a retail version of One Piece...

Please let Dark Souls PC be...

1. Direct feed.
2. Good.

Plz Bamco.

 

[Durante]

I hope they'll use real computers to demonstrate Dark Souls and not some shitty laptops.

Thanks.

Think I'll offload my vanilla copy of DS now and buy the complete edition upon release.

 

[PixelHorror]

Where's this "game was running on laptops" rumor is coming from? Wasn't it running on some top of the line Origin PC or something like that?

I had no idea there was such a rumour. I was simply extrapolating from Namco's overall competence in marketing the port so far.

 

[AssassiN]

Am i the only one who finds it strange none of the DBZ Games are there.

 

[Sentenza]

I guess he was a bit confused by how me and you apparently made the same joke on two different threads.

 

[KingJ2002]

that's a good lineup. looking forward to hearing about the games... especially tank!tank!tank!

...


am I alone in thinking that i miss the late 90's namco style. every time i think of namco... i think of that era.

 

[Pie and Beans]

I have no idea why One Piece and Ni no Kuni aren't just out right the fuck now in drought season. I still cant fathom Ni no Kuni going for the fucking insanely crowded Q1. Why do they do this. Its like the world's slowest fucking train crash. Theres like just under half an entire year left to change tracks. But no. Everyones goin for that Q1 all at once. FUCCKKKK.

Seems to be because Bamco is terminally slow with RPG localizations. See Tales games.

One Piece though, I can't understand that.

 

[Hours Left]

I just want more TTT2 news/reveals.

 

[SykoTech]

Would be nice to get a price for One Piece. Would be nice if it didn't cost a full $60 since it's late, kinda on the niche side, and digital only (if America).

 

[Tenki]

I want to read more impressions about Tank! Tank! Tank!

This kind of arcade game are usually extremely fun with friends.

 

[Raptor]

Yep. New weapons, areas, bosses, etc. Sold as a complete game for PC/360/PS3 or just as DLC for PS3/360

Is going to be retail for consoles aswell or just DLC?

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Preparing to Die....again....in 1080p

 

[Orayn]

Consoles are getting DLC and a retail version.

...I think?

 

[BlackIronCount]

It's too bad there won't be a retail version of One Piece...

Europe get Retail release, US that get PSN only release

 

[Raptor]

Consoles are getting DLC and a retail version.

That is what I want to know because I'm holding off buying it now in hopes for that Edition for the PS3, if not then I just could buy it now and wait for the DLC.

 

[dot]

I know. Which is why i said that.

Maybe i should have clarified a bit.

That is what I want to know because I'm holding off buying it now in hopes for that Edition for the PS3, if not then I just could buy it now and wait for the DLC.

I believe the new content is only available as DLC on consoles. Only PC gets the Prepare To Die edition. Don't hold me to this word though, as this is just what i've heard. lol

 

[AAK]

I AM EXCITE

 

[shiroryu]

Ninokuni, Tales of and One Piece. Great line up.

Probs my fave publisher at the mo.

TTT2, Ni no Kuni, One Piece, Dark Souls PC...I echo the sentiment.
