Last Rebellion; breakthrough PS3 title from NIS

Last Rebellion Official website



Nippon Ichi Software (NIS) known for hit AAA Strategy RPG titles like Disgaea, La Pucelle:Tactics and Phantom Brave, now brings us Last Rebellion, which surprisingly is not an SRPG and can be only described as a breakthrough title for both NIS and JRPGs.

Last Rebellion - Debut Trailer

Quote:
Exploration is free-roaming, but in combat, the mechanics become turn-based. The battle system will allow the player to target specific body parts of an enemy, and the reaction will be realistic; hence, if you shoot out the legs of an opponent, his or her movement will be drastically reduced, while blows to the arms will weaken their attacks. By strategically striking key areas of the body, players can strip the enemy of their ability to fight. Players can switch back and forth between the two characters during battle. Since Nine and Aisha share a single turn, the player must strategically choose which character will execute their attacks first.

Ar Tonelico III huge disappointment!!!


The art and design is epic, as it is always been with Gust's JRPGs, but the game looks action-y, not turn-based and no menus or anything of sorts.

Ar Tonelico was epic
Ar Tonelico II was OK, but not as good as the original
Ar Tonelico III makes me sad :(

I'm disappointed and not gonna buy it :(



If more JRPGs become action-y I'm gonna quit gaming :\

At least there's still Atelier Rorona.

Fuck you PSP

So I was just playing SMT: Persona when it suddenly switched off on me

Called my friend who is a big PSP evangelist and asked him "isn't the green light next to Power supposed to turn red before it dies?". He told me "no! but you can check the battery life by clicking Home". I turned it back on, and clicked Home immediately before it switches off and yup, it was dry AFTER ONLY 4 HOURS OF GAMEPLAY! And I had it on the lowest brightness setting!!

Ignoring all the awful hissing noise it makes and long load times was painful enough!!!

FUCK YOU SONY
A really poor design decision on your part! Haven't you thought about us away from home for hours?

FUCK YOU PSP

WHAT A LAME EXCUSE FOR A PIECE OF SHIT HARDWARE

I get 4x the gameplay time on my DS Lite!

The PSP is totally not useful for us who play JRPGs and spend hours grinding.



Shame I really love SMT: Persona, and would continue to play it, but now I must charge my PSP

I guess I should get me an extra battery, and that what I will do. Good thing I can get them for like $30


BTW, the game is purely awesome! Highly recommended for anyone unlucky to have a PSP.
