Oh, fuck you square. I wanted an actual squeal not a re-release on a system I don't have and have no plan on getting.
>Announce thing people don't care about
>Make big deal out of it
>Tease something everybody loved
>Make worst possible choice concerning it and the people who would've played it, leaving it in the hands of soccer moms and teenage girls who will go "Ew, Japanese cartoons" (I know the iSeries has a much wider userbase, but how many people are honestly going to play or even pay for a really long RPG when the entire thing is dedicated to pick-up-and-play casual games?)
To be fair, Square really, really, really loves rereleasing all of their games on completely random platforms, so this isn't really out of the ordinary. And countdowns to things that nobody cares about are also not unheard of.
TWEWY isn't a "really long RPG", 'specially by today's standards.
Honestly, I'm not so sure about this. Videogames do have a pretty major marketing problem of only being sold to people who already play them, and if someone doesn't try to fix it, we'll get a second crash.
But The World Ends With You doesn't seem to be the title that would fix that.
Thank god for Gaslamp Games and project Odin to help soften the blow. I don't know what it is exactly but from what little has been teased it sounds good and the official reveal should be tomorrow. They would not pull something like what square pulled.
An iOS version makes about as much business sense as a Final Fantasy sports game. Why not a 3DS version or something? That's probably where the target audience is.
Also, this isn't the first time Square has ported a DS game to the iOS, since they already did it with Final Fantasy III.
I don't know what this is, but I know there's a game where I wake up in the middle of nowhere and have to steal some poor schmuck's gun when he's asleep, then find a dead guy's key just to be able to get some drama-ridden village idiots to open up and give me a damn lead of something to do, whereupon they start up a teleporter for me, and I use it to go kill a crazy person, and then I use it to go gather bomb-making materials in order to blast out a door just to watch some idiots hovercraft their way into a collision with the ground, and then I use it to go find a crazy old lady's puppies that have all run loose in a desert complex, and along the way I have to tell someone I don't want the cool gun they're offering me even though I just stole someone else's gun. Then I'm forced to kill another crazy person, and then I'm used as an exterminator for cockroaches, and then I have to save a self-sacrificing brat, and then I have to not save some poor schmuck who just fell fifty feet to his apparent
deathextreme bodily injury, only to find that the village has been plundered of people while I was gone. Then one schmuck who escaped offers me a chance to escape, and I'm supposed to tell him to f*** off, just so I can enjoy some really cool sad music, and find my way to a farm, where I get enough non-leads to figure out that I have to beat the crap out of a mushroom and then stuff its remains into said brat's mouth for her own good. And then I go back to actually see the poor schmuck whose gun I stole, and for some reason he's willing to give me the strongest weapon in the game.Though, I must say, I enjoyed the experience. A lot.
It's one of those things where someone pretends that a video game makes less sense than it does. Also, he's talking about Ocarina of Time.
And Giant Fucking Rock Person is a goron, I assume, and the chicken is a cucco. For some reason I vaguely had a guess it was a Zelda game anyway.
Showed my friend some Yume Nikki. More specifically, I showed him Monoko, Monoe, the Mars event and Poniko. He says he's going to have nightmares
To be fair, the quest starts with a random prompt, basically
Why does Zero absolutely wreck things in X5?
So...
Playing X6.
... Yeah.
I don't know why, maybe it's because I'm a masochist who loves pain or I want to see what NOT to do in level design/game design for myself or the completionist in me just can't let a game go unfinished in the MMX collection.
EDIT: High Max is soooo damn boring.
Well, the very first trade is mandatory, so...
It is, but I meant simply that you wouldn't know that doing that would lead to obtaining the sword unless you heard it already, now would you.

Apparently, Sony is making a movie about the console wars. I'm sure this will be very neutral and unbiased, and not, say, a feature-length commercial you have to pay to watch.
Maybe it's a Hyperdimension Neptunia movie
Based on the websites they've registered, it appears to be just called "The Console Wars."
So, I'm playing Pokemon HeartGold... Trying to trade for an Arceus. My PokeDex is about 424.
^^ Maybe it's a Hyperdimension Neptunia rip-off with buff superguys instead of girls?
The creator of Adventure Time wants to do interviews with game developers. It's worth a look for the adorable little Mario animations he did.
In good 3DS rpg news, images from the Shin Megami Tensei IV trailer that comes with Devil Summoners:Soul hackers for the 3DS are now on the internet.
