Yeah, it is pretty pathetic how they're all jumping on the Disgaea bandwagon cause it's the only JRPG on the PS3 this Fall. I wonder how many will hate it, but still play through it anyways. The original Disgaea took a long time to grow on me back in the day, but it finally clicked and now they're a ton of fun.

*It's not as funny as those who think X Edge will be a good game, though!

Never tried it although I bought the 1st one for the PS2.  Isn't it more of a strategy game than a RPG?

Yeah, but it's a weird mix of an SRPG and shooter. It's not a straight RPG or SRPG.

i'll be playing it, but only because i'm a looney PS3 fanboy -- it has nothing to do with the fact that i loved the first two disgaea games and can't wait to play the next installment of the best SRPG.  gameflying it though, so they'll be shipping it on the 29th :(.

yeah, a reprogrammed xbot (i think his name was speevy-nator) came from the future and told me disgaea 3 was a PS3 exclusive, and my mission was to artificially hype disgaea 3 in order to win the console war.  i knew i'd have to like it and seem legit, so i went and bought disgaea 1.  i hated it, but with the help of the reprogrammed xbot, i was able to play it -- after all, it was my mission to lead the PS3 fanboy army against the xbots in the future - it was my destiny.  i even bought phantom brave and disgaea 2 to prepare for the war that was foretold to me. 

and here i stand today.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
so i looked it up and my terminator lore is a little off -- not reprogrammed... just visually identical.  oh well

Not really into the NIS style of SRPG myself... seems waaaaay too gimmicky. Didn't care much for the first Disgaea, though Phantom Brave was kinda cool. Still... it's a game for the PS3 that probably won't suck... and those are extremely rare. So who knows? I might get it.

I don't know if I will buy it, but I do wonder if the visuals are more sharp than they appear in videos.  It looks sub-PS2 level graphically.

Hell no.  I'm not falling for the Disgaea internet hype trap again.  I spent weeks looking for the first game and when I finally got a hold of it I spent an hour and was fucking disgusted after the fist hour.

Lesson learned - never trust game recommendations from people with anime avatars.

I briefly played the first game, and found it to be a SRPG with hardly any strategy involved.  It mainly just composed of you recruiting and powerleveling your characters and abusing AI patterns/glitches to be successful.

Oh well, wonder if it'll do better than Spectral Force 3 did, they look about as good as each other, although Disgaea has some sort of hype around it for some reason.

Spectral Force never saw release outside Japan until 3. The Disgaea series has a history and an existing fanbase in North America, thanks to 2 PS2 titles and a remake on the PSP.

I couldn't care less about it being on PS3.  I don't understand the hype Disgaea gets because it's not a good SRPG.  It's good at other things, but the core SPRG aspect is so lacking in strategy that I got really annoyed at the game.  Never bothered with 2 nor will I bother with 3 unless they somehow made the system less reliant on powerleveling your recruits and more on actual strategy tactics with your current base party.

I stopped after doing a few missions due to Castle Crashers releasing.  So far, so good.  The graphics are really shameless.  How the fuck did this game end up on PS3?  It would have sold much better on the PS2.   But still I doubt that Sony would have moneyhatted a niche strat rpg to appear on PS3 exclusively.

I like the high rez assets that ARE there, its really just about the sprites, which look great when the map opens then it zooms in and arhhhhghgg, but you get used to it. The music, gameplay mechanics, and story are all top notch; my favorite so far. If anyone is playing a NIS game for visuals, they're probably lookin for the wrong things ;)

The sprites are really hideous.  You can either play with them being smoothed out in blurovision, or play it in pixelvision.  Both are about equally ugly.  Would it really have been so much trouble to draw up high res versions of the sprites?  All the sprites are pretty simple.

The pixelvision ones are worse, ive decided. And for NIS, visuals have always been their last concern. I think all of their budget went to the high res art for the cutscenes and eyecatches and story crap.

they don't expect the games to sell tons, so staying low budget is one viable way for them to continue making disgaea games.  even with disgaea's visuals, i still think some of the moves look cool.  and the draw of the game is really the strategy involved -- i might care more about the visuals if there was another SRPG bringing both excellent visuals and strong strategy gameplay.

But what I really don't get is why this is on PS3 instead of PS2.  If budget was really a concern, why would they put it on the platform where it won't perform as well?

I think it still looks cool, and a person does get used to the sprites since they have decent animation. All said and done it doesnt impact the play experience aside from 'wtf is it on ps3'

I guess a better question would be is why isn't this on PSN? Though the cover art looks nice and I like nice covers.
