Walk Over My Corpse (Ore no Shikabane wo Koeteyuke) is one of the great Japanese RPGs of the PS1 era that was never released outside of Japan. With its Sumi-e style graphics, complex class-based battle system and in-depth breeding mechanic, missing out on it is truly a loss for RPG fans the world over.
Wonder what the biggest selling game is in Japan at the moment? Wonder no more. The PSP game went on sale May 17 and is based on popular light novel My Little Sister Can’t Be This Cute. In one week, it sold 53,175, twice the number of games as its nearest rival, Mario Party 9.
In Japan, where the PSP isn’t dead, the latest Kenka Bancho will be out in coming months. Check out the game’s trailer. Warning annoying guitar music.
Warriors Orochi 2, a game that brings together characters from the Dynasty Warriors series and the Samurai Warriors series to fight against hundreds of enemy soldiers in epic battlegrounds is being ported to the PSP as Warriors Orochi 2 Special. The new game, like Dynasty Warriors VS for the 3DS, will feature guest characters as bonus playable characters.
Even though the PS Vita could really use a Monster Hunter game, the next spin-off instalment in Capcom’s monster hit series is PSP bound.
Yeah, sure, fine, there are a lot of great new games out right now. But for some reason, Persona 3 has captured the hearts and minds of not one but two Kotaku editors: Me (Kirk) and our resident JRPG expert Jason Schreier. We’ve been talking about the game pretty much every day, most likely to the detriment of our other work. So, we decided that we’d do a 2-player chat about what we’ve seen so far and open up the discussion.
