demi · « **Reply #2 on:** August 28, 2007, 06:04:02 PM »

Im not sure yet, Shouta gave it a thumbsup but he is a Wild Arms fanboy with weird tastes. I'll wait for impressions from other people.

I'll probably end up picking a copy regardless.

I shall.

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #8 on:** August 28, 2007, 08:56:04 PM »

Tomorrow? FUCK! This and Warhawk...thats already too much game juggling for me $:-\$

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #9 on:** August 28, 2007, 08:59:00 PM »

warhawk sucks. wild arms 5 is as close as we'll get to skies of arcadia 2!

demi · « **Reply #10 on:** August 28, 2007, 09:02:51 PM »

Why would you want Warhawk when the obviously superior and better and masculine Call of Duty 4 is on the horizon?

Beezy · « **Reply #11 on:** August 28, 2007, 09:08:07 PM »

*raises hand*

I preordered this and Persona 3 (still haven't played it) at the same time.

Fuck, that game too! Noooooooo

Wild Arms 5 didn't sound that good based on opinions from EGM's review crew. Everyone agreed that Persona 3 was better. 1 guy liked it a lot but Shane thought it was average while Donahoe thought it was crap.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #14 on:** August 28, 2007, 09:25:41 PM »

EGM's review crew is full of stupid assholes.

Oh wow, didn't realize it came out tomorrow, looks like I'm buying both this and BD tomorrow...

Ichirou · « **Reply #18 on:** August 28, 2007, 10:23:29 PM »

Wild Arms 5 looks awesome. I really, really want it (even more than Persona 3).

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #19 on:** August 28, 2007, 10:24:20 PM »

same. persona 3 is neat, but wa5's crazy praise from skies of arcadia fans has me gagging for it.

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #20 on:** August 28, 2007, 10:36:15 PM »

I already like the series before 5 but people who generally found the series mediocre now finding it really good have got me really psyched for it. Appearently Shouta on GAF said theres oodles of shit to do (Subquests)...so thats like...omg

Ichirou · « **Reply #21 on:** August 28, 2007, 10:42:06 PM »

Wild Arms - Very average, for its time, but with a unique setting and good music.

Wild Arms 2 - Major improvement (even though the translation made the story incomprehensible).

Wild Arms 3 - Meh.

Wild Arms Alter Code F - *vomit*

Wild Arms 4 -

Wild Arms 5 - TEH AWESOME!?

Cindi Mayweather · « **Reply #22 on:** August 29, 2007, 11:11:00 AM »

where are all of these skies of arcadia comparisons coming from drinky?

the only one i've seen so far is a dark haired boy with a gal pal who takes no shit from anywhere encounter a mysterious white haired girl.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #23 on:** August 29, 2007, 11:24:27 AM »

3 rocked, 4 was a lot of fun even if it was balanced horribly. I have high hopes for 5.

Im used to people not agreeing with me on the WA games tho. Theyre just distinguished mentally-challenged fellows and im the best.

Cindi Mayweather · « **Reply #24 on:** August 29, 2007, 11:28:05 AM »

i thought 3 was pretty good myself. haven't played 4 but it looks really fun.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #25 on:** August 29, 2007, 11:28:50 AM »

4 is good but raquel is way overpowered. I mean WAY overpowered.

Cindi Mayweather · « **Reply #26 on:** August 29, 2007, 11:30:57 AM »

orlandu?

Mana Knight · « **Reply #27 on:** August 29, 2007, 12:06:26 PM »

I'm picking up my preorder today.

Beezy · « **Reply #28 on:** August 29, 2007, 01:45:34 PM »

Meh, I won't be able to pick up my preorder until Friday.

Junpei the Tracer! · « **Reply #29 on:** August 29, 2007, 03:42:36 PM »

Oh, crap.

I just saw pics of the art book that comes with the game. I definitely want this now.

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #32 on:** August 29, 2007, 05:04:59 PM »

how is this game like Skies, I know nothin about it

Raquel is like Orlandu x calculator and with chainable time-stop to boot. most fights involved letting her meter fill up then having her kill everything in a single round.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #33 on:** August 29, 2007, 05:50:30 PM »

patel:

the three leads (and the three supports) are analogous to skies' characters; happy-go-lucky adventure atmosphere and narrative.

behind the back 3D perspective; large free-roaming world; similar puzzle-heavy dungeon design; discoveries.

how it is not like skies: no airships.

no moonstone cannon.

no hot hot hot fina pirate costume.

on the plus side: deeper battles.

hex-based combat.

more sidequests.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #34 on:** August 29, 2007, 05:51:28 PM »

Does WA5 use that tactical grid during battles? If so, no sale.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #35 on:** August 29, 2007, 05:52:17 PM »

it has WA4's battle system, which i loved. if you mean that: screw you, dirty west-sider!

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #36 on:** August 29, 2007, 05:58:13 PM »

ah okay. "no airships" is a pretty big one in a game being compared to skies

does it have a dumb cute mascot

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #37 on:** August 29, 2007, 06:02:49 PM »

probably. didn't see one in the boxart, though!

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #38 on:** August 29, 2007, 06:03:35 PM »

it has giant flying ancient robots, though! actually, it MIGHT have an airship, since the other wild arms titles have had one.
