every flappy bird news article: "Nguyen said he did not want attention from the media" "we've reached out to Ngyuen for comment"
Maybe because his name was Dong? I know it's a Vietnamese name, but still...  :teehee

Been watching this Let's Play of Dark Souls by a chick named "Kay"

It's probably one of the best Let's Plays I've seen. She's incredibly attentive. Reads item descriptions, is aware of her surroundings, quickly picks up concepts and mechanics. It's just really interesting to watch a person play Dark Souls the way Dark Souls was meant to be played. She even almost found Snuggly the Crow when she left Undead Asylum because she was exploring!

- demons
- no boobs or ass in sights
- very disgaeaish music
- pigs sort of looks like prinnies
- perhaps this is yamamoto (ex nippon ichi staff,disgaea 4 director) new game?

Maybe interested if it's Disgaea but back on track with stats and good stuff and not just generic anime and lolis.  But isn't Compile Heart known for nothing but moe games?  Will be surprised if it's like the teaser.

they launched a teaser page,at least on a superficial level it looks more tastefull than all their recent effort

maybe it's because I never got into crafting new weapons in the other yakuza games, but the demo seemed goofier with giant glowing swords that drain life, flaming katanas, and pulling a giant cannon/mortar out of kazuma's ass.

Jesus. Ryu Game Gatocrap (lol gundam) ishin has crazy Japanese. Fuck. Never mind on importing this. Maybe in three years. :(

edit: funnilly enough I can understand what people are saying in the street more than I can in cutscenes or the menus.

ええじゃないか~

I really like the graphics and mood and setting. This game was made for me. :( I may have to still import.

I would've had big trouble had I not just finished the last two english yakuza games.  otherwise I'm finding it harder to intuit my way through japanese games.  there's one moment in the demo where there's no waypoint, only the hint on where to go next is on the start screen.  ended up running around until something triggered.

and yeah, the japanese playstation store is somehow worse than the american one.  it gradually slows down to a freeze after 5 minutes.

I managed to dl the demo by hitting the what's new tab and then going to the ryu ga gotoku ishin vita page that was highlighted - why wasn't the ps3 version advertised as well? Who cares about vita? and had to go to related pages to dl the demo.

Yah, there's a part where there's not a blip and luckily I can read what he says to himself when he gives the hint as to where you should go next.

I kinda feel like this is a big deal. Maybe I'm getting a bit ahead of things, but if this is a signal of Deep Silver's intent going forward and not just a one-off solely for this particular game, then I will be incredibly happy.

Great, all the games I pick up for $20 2 years later and never play get better PC ports :(


Still, cell-shading games like this should look gorgeous on PC with AA and no tearing.  Might double dip and hold off on playing the PS3 version any further (played like an hour).  Would like more PC versions of Japanese games for sure though.  Like Bayonetta would be nice once my X360 dies eventually.

I buy old PC games for $5 every Steam sale. Right now I'm waiting for Enslaved, Deadly Premonition, Dishonored, The Darkness II, Singularity, Viking: Battle for Asgard, and a few other old console games to reach that magical threshold.

What I've seen [and played] of the new Wolfenstein has really got me interested in it, looks like it's going to end up being a lot better than the decent, but pedestrian Wolfenstein we got a few years back.

Doom beta, though...WHAT EVEN IS IT

So with the news of Sony Santa Monica team losing their jobs, I have to say it's pretty depressing all around.  I can't even imagine how pissed off I'd be if a game I'd been working on for 3-4 years gets cancelled before it's ever even publicly shown and announced.  All that work down the drain.  Don't know how these guys and gals stay in the industry after stuff like that (and it happens way too frequently it seems)  :'(
