I wonder if Shining Blade was the game rumored to be announced at TGS that used the Valkyria engine...

 

[M-PG71C]

Hellfire. Damnit, what I wouldn't do for Shining Blade to come Stateside.

Or, prehaps even more so, Type-0. I can't believe the game has a serious chance of not coming Stateside. A FF title, never thought the day may come. Damnit.

This only means one thing

Bayo 2 announcement soon!

 

[Aeana]

Wow, Kikuta is doing a non-porn game.

Worst comes to worst they'd probably just update it to Vita and bring it out here. I'm not too concerned for Type-0.

 

[Bebpo]

I was hoping shining blade would be on ps3 and look like Valkyria 1 with gorgeous cell-shading :/. Oh well, gameplay could still be good.

Also while I'm cool with a gundam rts, how is that even going to control on psp?

 

[Busaiku]

Wow, Kikuta is doing a non-porn game.

He did Shining Hearts too.

 

[xero273]

hmm so no Senritsu no Stratus review... game is going to bomb so hard. releasing the same day as type-0. poor nudemaker

Most likely we've already seen screenshots of Shining Blade. I'm assuming they'll match up with these.

 

[Gravijah]

this is not shining soul iii!

 

[TreIII]

Bayo 2 announcement soon!

Beat me to it. :lol

I'm just in such an "any day now~" mood when it comes to that game. We all know it's coming. It's just a matter of when Sega and P* finally get around to doing so.

At this point, I've resigned to the fact that they probably didn't want to have Bayo 2 overshadow Anarchy Reigns so soon. It's pretty much the only reason I could imagine them keeping the game so close to their chests, especially in a climate where they could truly stand to capitalize on where certain other action games are leaving their fans so disgruntled.

 

[androvsky]

Ah yes, the "it's not Ar Tonelico, we swear" game.

...

Really wish it'd get localized.

 

[Pureauthor]

What's the 'Shining' series like, again?

 

[chri5t]

Final Fantasy Type-0's review score is not surprising at all.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Some more announcements from Andriasang:

God of Princess (3DS, Agashima Entertainment) - sidescrolling action game, character designs from Kinu Nishimura (Street Fighter III, 999)

If I Were in a Sealed Room with a Girl (3DS, D3) - combination dating sim and room escape game

 

[B.K.]

Final Fantasy Type-0's review score is not surprising at all.

I wonder how much more money Square Enix would have had to give them for a 40.

 

[Boney]

hey that princess game could be cool

[PSP] Senritsu no Stratus: 8, 8, 7, 7

[Xelinis]

Allegedly, this issue has an update on that new Suikoden PSP title.

So says the game's official Twitter. (Unless my translator has failed me)

 

[Riposte]

NBA 2k12 isn't a good game, eh?

 

[BlazingDarkness]

'if i were sealed in a room with a girl'
oh dear

 

[Gravijah]

NBA 2k12 isn't a good game, eh?

well, they did review the psp version.

Thanks.

 

[Wilsongt]

Wow, Kikuta is doing a non-porn game.

Tony Taka. It's already a porn game.

 

[Dark Schala]

Yep. Finally... Can't wait to see what's up with this game.

Wow, Kikuta is doing a non-porn game.

God of Princess (3DS, Agashima Entertainment) - sidescrolling action game, character designs from Kinu Nishimura (Street Fighter III, 999)

Hm, article referred to Nishimura as a guy (that's incorrect).

 

[Akainu]

[PSP] Shining Blade (SEGA)

• New Character Designs from Tony
• Music from Hiroki Kikuta
• Spring 2012

That look exactly like his old character designs. ZING!

 

[Kyoufu]

I'm surprised they still make Shining games.

 

[Wilsongt]

I'm surprised they still make Shining games.

I'm ready for it to die. Again and I absolutely love the Camelot Shining games and actually liked Neo, Exa, and Tears.

 

[Takao]

I'm surprised they still make Shining games.

I think Hearts (the last one on PSP) was the best selling iteration in ages.

 

[The Mana Legend]

Hiroki Kikuta?! Holy fucking shit, I have to hear this. Besides Yasunori Shiono, Hiroki Kikuta was the best composer for the SNES.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Is that the first...worldwide review for nba 2k12 on the psp?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Oh boy, another Hentai Shining series!

*snickers because Shining Wind had more furry-related stuff than the rest of the hentai-drawn style cast*

 

[Truth101]

New 3DS games are always nice.

Scans are out for the Princess game.

And, uh... wow at that outfit.

Code of Princess

 

[Kyoufu]

Code of Princess looks like my killer app. 4 player Guardian Heroes style action. Fuck yeah.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Scans are out for the Princess game.

And, uh... wow at that outfit.

Dragon's Crown has ignited an Amazon War amongst Japanese devs to design the biggest, barest, badassedest battle babes!

 

[Tenbatsu]

4 players action game! With online I hope.

Looks like they've already got a figurine lined up to sell too.

Amazing.

 

[wsippel]

Code of Princess looks quite nice.

 

[Shouta]

What's the 'Shining' series like, again?

Type of game is all over the place, it entirely depends on that specific game. For example, Shining Hearts is part standard JRPG and part baking simulator. It's basically Sega's Final Fantasy so they just use the same tropes and the like to connect them all.
