Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance has a change of becoming one. Metal Slug X and 3 are so short that they shouldn't even count but those see play every year.
As a tip for first-timers - buffs and debuffs are really powerful in Nocturne. You can stack both up to four times and the effects last until the end of the battle unless they're negated by something like Dekaja, and having a boss use its turn negating de/buffs is usually better than having your teeth kicked in.
I was unsure whether it had a simultaneous PC release or not, looks like it does. I hope they get around to printing an artbook of some sort in the future, Jen Zee is definitely one of my favorite artists.
Transistor and backlog stuff. European retailers finally stopped price gouging with Tales of the Abyss 3DS so I've been going through it at a leisurely pace, not a fan of the FoF system but otherwise all good.
I'd like to put a good word in for CDJapan. They specialize in music but I've ordered a some older manga, games, artbooks and a figure without a hitch. They also offer a proxy service and magazine subscriptions if that's your thing.
AmiAmi has the most competitive pre-order prices and they often get exclusive extras for figures and games. It's probably the most well-regarded site in the biz but I'm still waiting on pre-orders so I can't speak from experience. They also sell second-hand figures - something to be mindful of when browsing Mandarake.
@althox: From what I understand Sony wants all the fine print - that the end user would have to go out of their way to even see - translated for every country a digital product would be sold in, and the publisher can't be bothered to commission it. This came up first as missing DLC for NISA games and countries like Norway, Portugal, Greece and Finland not getting the Vita YouTube app. It's ridiculous but the right people don't care enough to even take note of it.
As a Hunter main, fuck y'all and your Unleash the Hounds hate.
I also completely understand and apologise.
My only issue with UtH is that you get three cards from the bird draw, can buff the hyena with their death, and can +1 bonus from the dire. Combo is easily fixed by making them them the same as Spirit Wolves which are Minions and not beasts but its a pretty big hunter nerf if they do that.
Best way to fight hunters stop summoning all of da minions!
It's actually been really fun playing against Hunters recently, and just constantly only keeping one creature on the board and really aggressively using my hero ability (assuming I'm not Paladin or Shaman). It feels like they're constantly waiting for that moment where I give them an opportunity by having 2 or more creatures out at once, so I just never give it to them, and they're usually hilariously impotent except for the select few that are good enough players to adapt. Most seem to be relying on the trolololol card advantage they get from Unleash the Hounds and Starving Buzzard, and don't know what to do with themselves if that never happens.
Almost as fun as riding Faerie Dragons to victory against a Mage or sticking to minions with 4 attack against a Priest.
