The last thing I want to do is start another debate about video game storytelling. That sounds almost as fun to read as an article about any other dead horse that we’ve repeatedly body-slammed over the last few years. More »
I’ve been dreaming for a while now of picking up a PS2 game I already own, putting it in my pS3 and having it work. Ever since my launch PS3 did that’s been totally out of the question, so I guess I’ll have to settle for the next best thing. More »
Not counting erotic game developers, Japanese game developer Vanillaware surely must have the industry’s sauciest website cornered. Don’t believe us? Check out its landing page. More »
If $US95 is a bit too much to spend on your Odin Sphere merch – and really, for most people, it will be – this figure of Mercedes might be more in line with your tastes. More »
It may not be as high-profile as something like Diablo or Halo, but damnit if something as beautiful as Odin Sphere doesn’t deserve some high-end merchandise of its own. This statue, from Japanese manufacturer Alter, is of Gwendolyn, and will be distributed by Sideshow Collectibles in the West early next year. For $US95, she’s all yours.
Two of Atlus’ best publishing efforts from the PlayStation 2 era are getting the Greatest Hits treatment, with Odin Sphere and Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. The latter of those two took an impressive five years and change to receive the coveted $US 19.99 price drop and dreaded red bar. We’re not complaining, as all PlayStation 2 owners should give these titles a whirl at these low, low prices. We’re just sort of shocked that someone at SCEA remembered Disgaea existed.
Both titles will have their box arts slightly shrunk and their street value hit rock bottom this September in North America. Congrats to both.
