Angel Beats! -1st beat- getting released in May next year:

Ugh, I was really hoping they were going to change thier minds and not break it up, so I'm finding it kind of hard to care right now. I also think the resulting traffic killed Key's site, I can't get on right now ww.

Yep, same here
Most of the news is summed up here though:

New anime project, new AB! OVA in the BD Box, another KSL Live World etc.

Didn't mention it here, but glad the new anime project seems unrelated at least. Key needs some new franchises, first one in 5 years. I probably don't care about the OVA, I know I don't care about Live World. Gonna keep trying to get on the site for whatever other info I can get.
also I know it has nothing to do with this thread but WORKING S3　☆-(ノﾟДﾟ
八(ﾟДﾟ )ノｲｴｰｲedit: looking at the temp art for first beat has me wondering, if it's not just the three characters who were initially announced (I forgot names a long time ago) but has Kanade and other main girl that would make me a lot more interested

Yeah, hope it will be good
And it looks like it's Iwasawa, Matsushita and Yui based on the powerpoint they showed or whatever:

That's what the original plan was, and as I lag my way into the site, Yui (and presumably the others who didn't load) have a "first beat" tag by their name. The CG is also tagged first beat now too. I'm trying to get to a specs page, but the special confirms that the "pre-order" bonus is a girls dead monster CD titled Million Star, amount of music unclear; reservations open on 30/1/15.
edit: and I have a price and it's DISGUSTING
7500円
edit 2: forgot to mention, it's still listed as all ages so it's likely to stay that way. Interestingly, it's also only listed for vista and up but uses d3d 9, which I kind of take as a challenge. Requirements are nothing special though, so you can ignore the rest of them. HDD space still undecided, aka the art isn't all done.

Wow it's finally happening
Payne said they were having delays for some reason, might have been the strike at the LA docks or something, I don't remember exactly why.
Their choice to give a digital copy to people that buy physical really pays off. No delay can hinder me this way!
I bought the game mostly because I really like the art in it and even just the beginning looks so nice to my eyes
Sure is foreheads.

Just downloaded fault milestones one right now but I'm not sure if my version is the completed one of the beta. How can I tell? I used the same key as the beta. Is there supposed to be a separate key? First time using steam so I'm a bit confused. The game appears complete.
I like the prologue thus far.

Not really. More sci-fi than supernatural.
Nice. Think I'll start right away then.
I've had a really shitty past few days and I have more than enough reason to believe the rest of my break won't get much better, so I wanna get myself a christmas gift to cheer myself up. I want something really fun and that's going to just give me an all around good time. Language is not an issue.
My VNDB is here, please don't recommend me anything listed as "playing" or "completed" from it.

Is the first Danganronpa out of print, or something?

Nice. Anime gave me a lot of feels, but I hated how short it was. Game should fix that..well..once it's all done with chapters that is
Could be. I'd suggest buying it on PSN at this point.
Amazon might just be out right now, especially since Christmas just passed. NISA still has some in stock in their store.

Oh no. If I'm paying over $20, I'm buying physical.

Speaking of Danganronpa, I'm going to finally start that today. I bought a Vita a while ago but have been 'saving' it for some reason
Also (VLR spoilers)

Did a few endings of VLR again - I was trying to think of possible theories as to who Brother is, or the leader of Free the Soul. I think that could be revealed in ZE3

Thanks BTW, I started off with Kind (Default) difficulty rather than Hard, do you unlock new stuff with harder difficulty?

I don't think so, but I would recommend doing Hard anyway. Kind is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too easy. (Some gameplay elements are removed entirely.)Thanks
I played both 1 & 2 on Hard right off the bat and found it to be just right.

I'll do both difficulties on Hard then

Don't play Danganronpa 2 on hard. The mini-games in that one are just bad, getting through them as quickly and easily as possible is the best way to go.
Though really Nonstop Debate is the only good mini-game in ether game.

Those would be bad no matter what. "Improved" Hangman's Gambit is a failure on all levels. (Logic Drive doesn't bother me, and I like the other games.)
I don't think it's worth copping out on the other parts just to get those few annoying aspects over with a few seconds earlier.

Eden* is available for preorder at MangaGamer for $9.95 as a digital copy only for the All Ages version. The adult version is $14.95.
Apparently the release price is supposed to be $19.95 and it will be released January 30th. I'm probably going to pick up the All Ages version.
Can anyone suggest or give an opinion on Fault Milestone One? I'm going to wait in If My Heart Had Wings (if I get it) but I'm leaning on getting one more VN from Steam or MangaGamer soon.

I think that's the right choice.
I've decided to play it in Japanese too, it seems fitting considering the game is set in Japan (I guess?)

I used the English dub personally, but they're both great. A GAF member is one of the English voices in the game, so I wanted to support that.
I've been using a lot more English dubs lately in games. They really have come a long way.
Finally Space Pirate Sara is downloadable from mangagamer. My third Lilith game and I still can't believe we get to have their dark and perverted games.
Also going there for their XXXmas sale I noticed the Higurashi price for the first chapter will be 5.95$, something I didn't know. I'd rather they sold the full package on Steam from the get go, but the price seems cheap enough, come release.

This is a silly question, but can you save Danganronpa at any point you like, or do you have to wait for a checkpoint each time? Thanks

Daganronpa 2 is a direct sequel that plays heavily on knowledge of the first game. You should play the first game first.

You can save at any point you like except for during the class trials (during which you get to save at half time (in 2 anyway, I can't remember if it's been like that in 1).
Well, the opening of DR2 heavily references the ending of DR1, and many of the later plot points assume familarity with the events in DR1, so...
It's definitely worth the sale price, though, so I would pick it up and leave it until DR1 goes on sale.
Ok reading the blog, says how these are early bird prices... Any word on physical copies coming out for it?
