Keep an eye open, cause the next SSB might get leaked anytime.

How would the next SSB get leaked and those aren't developed in under a 2 1/2 development cycle.

Is it that time of the year again where Assassin's Creed gets leaked?
Assassin's Creed Victory will take place in the Victorian era and be disturbingly defensive about colonialism and Jack the Ripper (played by Quinton Flynn.)
Obviously, Jack the Ripper will be an assassin taking the lives of templar spies.
That Adrift game looks beautiful
in before "Gravity the Game"
Um, hey, people.
I guess I don't have sufficient privilege to post a new thread or whatever, so I thought I'd bring this here.
Man…
Sometimes I wonder what will happen if Miyamoto or Inafune dies.

The games they're responsible will still be made provided video games are still popular by the time that happens.
It's pretty bad that the vocal minority has the ability to ruin stuff for the majority. Seriously. These internet white knights are getting out of control, and the developer does, in my opinion, have a point.
Reminds me of people crying over Quiet in Metal Gear Solid V, and Kojima's hilarious response (that I'm sure was sarcastic) about having Quiet dress like she does to increase sales and promote 'sexy cosplay'. lol
Assholes. Character looked fun, and now we won't get her in the american release because they're vocal assholes? We'll instead get a macho skinhead or something?
Ugh.
I hope that's just sarcasm.
Neogaf is a hive of shrill ninnies who flip out at the slightest touch, why would you listen to them.

Definitely sarcasm…...especially the last part which is just a joke poking fun of how most protagonists look in the west. They wouldn't go through the million or more dollars it takes to make a new character for a joke unless they were crazy.

The japanese can be very crazy when it comes to games though.

@From:
Harada is pretty smart. He framed Chloe as a defense against bald space marines, even though this character is just as much of a shameless, generic means to pander to an audience. Just a different audience.
But yeah, I'm convinced this is sarcasm IGN is taking seriously for clicks.
A couple questions:
1- So apparently Persona Q's been out for quite some time now. It seems it's quite a decent dungeon crawler, anyone had a chance to play it? How does it hold up compared to the rest of the SMTverse franchise?
2- I've been thinking of getting a 3DS because of the amount of Atlus stuff that's being either made or re-made specifically for it (SMT IV, the Overclock remakes, Persona Q, who knows what else), though I'm kinda broke as of now and I've seen the 2DS is like the cheaper version of it.
Is it an unwise decision to go for the 2DS just to save some bucks? How much I'd be missing without the 3D (a gimmick I've never been interested in, tbh)? Or is there something else in there like screen resolution, better controls (bigger/more ergonomical), game compatibilities, that kinda stuff?
Thanks in advance!
PQ is also on my to-do list but I'll probs get around to it after beating P3 and P4 lol

The 3DS/XL have foldable screens for portability (although Mugen can probably attest that the hinge design of the XL has much to be desired), and there's a new version of each coming out next year presumably (although Nintendo hasn't formally announced it being available overseas technically). The 2DS is one large squarish piece of hardware designed with tonka tough steel plastic, so although it's durable, it's not exactly as pocket friendly as the other two.
That said, if you just want to stash it in your bag or just want to play games with it, there's essentially no difference between it and the 3DS in terms of capability.

1.It plays more like Etraian (sp?) Odyssey rather than a standard Persona/SMT game. So if you're into rogue map making dungeon crawling game then I say go for it. Just DON'T expect Persona-ish game play and you'll be set.
2.Eh…the 3D effect for all games listed are fairly gimmicky. They add to the visual flair of SMT IV but it isn't completely necessary. I only turn it on occasionally for Boss battles to see the sprites pop out SLIGHTLY but that's about it. Heck, Digital Devil Summoner didn't even have any 3D effects (though that game is totally worth getting too...albiet slightly antiquated, but still a damn good game). The 3D effects really aren't a huge priority in any of these games. For me, the 3DS is just more comfortable due to being able to fold it and carry it around (downside is the joints DO weaken...at least with my 3DS XL). But really, if you're going to play it at home, then just go for the 2DS if money REALLY is an issue. Otherwise, just go for a 3DS XL (or heck, standard 3DS are cheaper now I think)

If you're not willing to wait and save up for a 3DSXL then just go for the 2DS.
If you're not willing to wait and save up for a 3DSXL and don't care about not being able to play GBA cartridges off the system just go for it.
No 3DS can play GBA cartridges. That was just DS -> DS Lite
@Purple:

I don't know why the hell I typed that.
If this whole story with Tekken 7 is true, then Harada can go fuck himself. It's a terrible design. It is a terrible character. You wanna be a child and be all "Well you won't get it! Enjoy your shirtless dudes!" then fuck you and your games. This ain't GAF's fault. Don't design shitty characters that clearly are just to cater to weeaboos.

I don't think Chloe the character everyone is bitching about was designed to appeal specifically to American & European audiences.
Plus all signs point to (the region exclusivity bit) being a lie and Harada not genuinely giving a shit what people don't like about Chloe outside of her design.
The Tekken series is a franchise that's know for having a myriad of playable characters that are bit out there. From boxing Kangaroos, to robots/androids, to bears and demons. And yet with all that Chloe is apparently the one character in all that zaniness that's a deal breaker for some who apparently could care less about how a new character in Tekken plays and more concerned about how the character looks.
I don't get why people have such an issue with it. I mean yeah, pandering, but I don't know, just seems like a stupid thing to complain about. What's the complaining about anyway? Is it because it's Japanese pandering (I mean it is a Japanese game) or is it the whole "sexist" thing still?

So, something like SMT:Strange Journey but with something that can pass as "graphics"? Then I'm all for that!

I want it to play at home, basically, I don't much care for it's "carriability", if that's even a word or a concept, I just made that word up. I just want a "chance" to play these games, since it seems Atlus is really gunning for the 3DS, plus it already has some juicy stuff in there or in the making (Zeldas and the like).
2DS seems to be a cool option so far if I'm in it just for the gaming, I gather. As long as the screen's not so small that I'll end up half blind, it's something I'll strongly consider for this christmas.
Thanks everyone! (oh, and thanks valiantt for reminding me about DDS; is the one that was originally on the Saturn?)
Wasn't sure where to put this, so this thread probably works.
"Crazy Taxi", the movie. I'm sold.
Oh boy, here we go. They can't make good games on their own, so the try movies now, lol. Although I heard mcdonalds wants to make a movie now!? So anything's possible. xD
At the risk of beggingoverstating, Shantae: Half-Genie Hero's paypal donations end in ~7 hours.
The Steam sale has started…
Don't spend all your money.
So did anyone else here win anything during the Steam auctions before the sale proper started? I traded in a bunch of my emoticons and backgrounds and got Uru: Complete Chronicles out of it. Not a bad deal. I tried for the Talos Principle too, but the bids stayed too high. Not surprising, since it is a just released game.
If I wasn't saving for a new console I would probably get the Talos principle right now, played the demo and enjoyed it a lot. Seems weird to say this when "the witness" hasn't even been out yet to make an informed statement but man Talos principle totally gives me "the witness" vibes despite the totally different visuals.
GSC, the Stalker dev, is now back (they somewhat closed down a couple years ago) and working on a new game. I'm not going to get too excited since Stalker 2 was apparently turning out pretty badly and I'm not sure that whatever game they end up making will be any good.

Either something very fishy is going on here or it just a huge coincidence that all 3 go down in the same day.

People are just DDOSing them "for teh lulz".
Isn't today as well the day that they get the most trafic anyways?
douchebaggery at its finest
Oh come on! I bought Battlefield 4 Premium for PS4 in the sale the other day. Lemme play!!
Shame how there is still no easy way to prevent some stupid simple DDoS attacks.

YOU'LL GET NOTHING AND LIKE IT!
But yeah find time for trolls and their bullshit.
You decided to do this during Flash Sale time instead of some other date.

Would have been interesting to see Don Mattrick's always-online Xbox right about now :wassat:
During one interview the trolls said their supposed reason was for both parties to wake up and strengthen their security. That's like the backstory to Live Free or Die Hard.
Dammit, I have so little time to play my games and THIS happens? So much for continuing my Dragon Age campaign.
I guess I could unwrap Bravely Default and play that . . . . . .
You decided to do this during Flash Sale time instead of some other date.
That's probably why they did it.
You can't play Dragon Age offline? I'm confused as to why this is a big deal as I didn't realize either console required being connected to the servers to play. Yeah, you can't play online but I must be missing something.
