(PS3) White Album 2 Announced - The PS3's last true ADV

I think they don't see much money to be made in the west on these type of games.

The problem I see is, if they don't release these kind of games more often then of course they won't sell, because the west will never be able to build a bigger culture that enjoys these games, it has to start somewhere.

It's not so much money, it's more so that for the longest time ADVs and visual novels were not seen as games,
 
Demo coming 12/13; will have a fair bit of content supposedly. Save data can be transferred to the full game, as well.

Considering the massive difference in length between Introductory Chapter and Closing Chapter (
+Coda
), and if "fair bit of content" is anything to go by, we may have most of IC in that demo.

IC was so good, those final scenes!

edit : indeed, the demo included most of Introductory Chapter! It went until late into the school festival so
they showed the first two songs for the band then played two trailers for IC and CC. Too bad they didn't include the final song though, it's so good. So what's left for IC? Well...the post festival trip and then the love drama.
The motion portrait technology is so weird, every character seems made of gelatin or pudding : they're bouncy! Or I'm maybe too much accustomed to still portraits.
 
Famitsu: [PS3] WHITE ALBUM 2 幸せの向こう側 10/9/9/9 (37)

Looks like it scored higher than the first one! Although with how Famitsu is nowadays...

Polygon has a slightly amusing if rather misinformed article on it.
 
That game is really good after all, no surprises there on the scores. It already won some awards for Scenario and Music at least, on PC.
