Fuck me, I thought they said this was exclusive to PS4. Love this series, maximum incline, Day 1 purchase, though I've heard NIS have been having financial woes lately so hopefully this gets released before things get any worse.

Raw Danger was better than the first entry though, they did a better job realising a flood based disaster than an earthquake, kinda expecting the same will be true here.

DAY FUCKING ONE.

NIS has been having financial problems for close to a decade now and they still somehow manage to stay afloat. Don't think too much about it.

Alliance Alive remaster will be released on October (8th - NA, 11st - EU, 18th - OC) for Switch and PS4. PC release date will be announced later.

 

[yes plz]

Did anyone play the original Alliance Alive? The only reason it's even on my radar is due to Yoshitaka Murayama (original creator and head writer for Suikoden 1 - 3) working on it.

I played the demo but it didn't really grab me. Too much dialogue, too much railroading and too easy. Still, it had the faint whiff of Saga and so I probably would've bought it at half price or less. I hope that the ports will be within this price range and not go for full price again, or else this will be an easy pass for me.

"Are saying you is be getting another remake, Son!"
"Mmmmmm nani baka desu kawaii domo arigato senpai!!!1 =^_^="

 

[Lyre Mors]

Not the biggest fan with some of the ultra-chibification of things, but I'll get it if it still has that great Langrisser gameplay.

Spike Chunsoft's Anime Expo announcements are very much animu:

To be fair, many were wondering where the first Conception game disappeared to. Turns out it never left Japan.

Not a jrpg,but one of the best warriors spin offs getting a sequel:

 

[Rahdulan]

I guess there has been more story added since 2015, but I wonder if they're once again doing that as the main focus.

 

[CyberModuled]

Cyber Sluts for PC and Switch announced.

Cyber Sluts for PC and Switch announced.

It is a shame they are opening up with the worst of the new digimon games,next order is much better and more designed around the original concept of monster raising.
But i guess the cyber games are popular enough to be prioritized.

 

[lightbane]

FUCKING FINALLY! Please don't add Denuvo, please don't add Denuvo, please don't add Denuvo...

Hopefully they consider doing the Metal Max games at some point...

 

[Rahdulan]

Can't wait for a $60 price tag because it's also coming out for Switch. But hey, at least you're getting two games.

 

[Abu Antar]

The Digimon SRPG got delayed until next year.

 

[CyberModuled]

Pre-order price for physica Switch seems to be $50 so I'm assuming the same for Steam. A bit meh on the price but I never played them so we'll see. Also hoping no Denuvo if Bamco didn't cope for Vesperia's port.

 

[flyingjohn]

Speaking of digimon anybody semi interested in monster raising should play digimon world 1.
It is a mishmash of ideas, and you will need a guide just to raise the digimon you want to,but damn if exploring the world wasn't fun.
Oh,and the game has curling,which is rare to include as a mini game.
