Between Infinite Climax and Don Quixote
What, you mean by that?
Well, im going to delay my purchase of Bayonetta for a little bit. (AWWW) Im saving up for Star Ocean 4 and Yakuza 3.
But isn't SO4 kinda like the drizzling droplets of detritus?
Well, I heard there were improvements. Who knows? But SO isn't such a bad series - it just had the "I want to be be the Xenogears of the PS2" drug on the third version The J - Developers went on that Post Modern Kick around 1999 and should have got off of it by the time Kingdom Hearts 2 came out. Really hurt the JRPG for me - but God - Atlus was making some really good ones but they were hard to beat if you really wanted to beat the game. Level 5 realized the whole " Beat Xenogears " thing was a bit of a Crux so they made some good games as well... Then you got Vanilla Ware

HOLY SHIT SON LOOK AT THEM FINE HUNNIES! GOD DAMNNN! Somebody must be a fan of God Of War! (And if you don't get what those three fine looking hunnys represent your in BIGGER Trouble than your are now...
...where were we - OH yeah, Vanilla Ware, who made Demon Souls before Demon Souls in the form of Odin Sphere. Then came the Real Demon Souls and then we knew that the J - Developers had learned there lesson... some what.
But I been waiting for Yakuza 3 for so long! The fact that they gave a chance on this franchise must mean somebody in Sony must be in love with the series. MS dont get second no thirdsies unless you made a BILLION bucks. Sony is a bit at fault too sometimes but in there defense their first parties are a little more honest about it.
Back to SO4 - and the reason this game over Bayo for now - Bayonetta may have some...updates between now and the time i plan to get it so Im just giving it space. That and I have a website to build and promote etc, etc.
Now some complained on my last post that I was a Sony "Apologist" and "PR Man"... UHH... guys - I may be a sony fan but im not lockstep. There are a LOT of things Sony can improve on. They have too many similar systems and not enough redundancy. (Yes, Redundancy can be a good thing at times) None of there of there games got to the Million Mark first week. Thats not really a bad thing but MS has 3 or so if I recall (thats first party and PD is Second Party somewhat) The games they have on of the line up - God of War 3 they are praying gets a Million first week. Heavy Rain between two and five hundred thousand US side. There are many others i cant remember off the top of my head. But I don't Apologize for Sony and Im not some PR dude.
But then again ... maybe some folk still underestimate the PS3 just a little too much.
Anyway, as for the game of the year? I agree with GBomb's for Uncharted 2. Batman as well, but didn't really get there dislike for Demon Souls. Its just the kick in the pants JRPG's needed... Ah oh well.
More On the Way
And If you do play Bayonetta, make sure you watch out for the Joy angel.
Yeah, Think Poison from Final Fight.
