Victory also didnt have a US airing, IIRC, but we had victory in musou 2. Licensing has little to do with it. The US publisher only needs to get the rights to do a translation port and publish the US version. The original developer already paid for the licensing for those series. Although the US publisher has to pay less for licensing as a result, they also only get a relatively small cut from the sales anyway. No reason they cant get random Vas for those series, they're all trash anyway.

TBH i dont really care either way, because this time around i might just get the J version. English VA for new anime titles may be getting better these days, but with the tendency to bring back the old, and pathetic, original eng VAs for gundam games, i dont think i'll be able to stand it if they only have a single language track like with the 2nd game.

Whatever we want, its what matters to japanese players that matters. And they love destiny. So we'll have destiny suits. Makes no sense to have the older ones in, specifically if legend is in there wont be providence.

I mean, ACE-R also has the trinity, SF, IJ, destiny, when so many other gundam series got cut.

Speaking of ACE, although i suspected that i'll be at a severe initial disadvantage taking the code geass route, seeing as every other series mech is larger than KMFs (even arm slaves....), i barreled through it all and im glad i did. Now that i have my Guren SEITEN, its a helluva lot easier and a whole lot more fun. Gainer is crazy though. Cant beat that shit.

Well i'd be satisfied with the Legend. Just not Rey. I'll have someone else pilot the Legend then. Speaking of Rey why wasn't he in the previous game yet Lacus and Lunamaria were not only added but were playable? That being said, why were characters like MQuve playable while Johnny Ridden was left as not playable? XD

Also, anyone think that there is a good chance that Full Frontal will show up or do you think that the two Unicorn characters will be Banagher and Marida?

As for ACE R. I suspect that one of the reasons that Seed Destiny was added was because the previous game only had Seed. They probably wanted Shinn (I can't understand why).

You may as well. We will probably get "THIS IS KIRA YAMOTO FREEDOM GUNDAM I WILL FIGHT!!!1111!!!!"

I hope they get rid of that shitty generic music they use and get stuff from the actual shows.

as shitty as Seed/Destiny/00 were, they had amazing soundtracks.

also, I hope they continue the trend of putting in more generic grunt suits. Nothing felt as spectacular as killing Jesus Yamato with a ball.

Well since they released the first 2 they might do the 3rd, depends on sales of first two.

One thing I noticed about games with different playable characters is that the 3rd of its series has a lot of characters. Some examples would be the DBZ Budokai and Budokai Tenkaichi series, Naruto Ultimate Ninja 3 and after as well as Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3, and others. Oh and they are usually the favorites as well.

I admit Rau was better then Rey, would be interesting if he was in Kira's story line, that would be nice battle.

I agree with Stargazer on the bgm from the last game in english, I did not like any of those songs except "Cold War" that was nice to play against tough opponents.

And am I the only Kira fan here?

The previous 2 in japanese apparently had music from the shows but for some reason its always taken out for the english versions. probably some stupid disagreement.

Ya they did have good soundtracks. I play many of them with the 2nd game lol.

That's true to a point. Although with the games and genres you mentioned it is most certainly true.

As for Rau i think he would fit in perfectly for the plot. last game i thought shinn as Kira's final opponent didn't cut it. I think it would be better lets say if Kira went to destroy the colony laser and Rau tries to stop him from destroying it.

As for Kira i don't exactly like him but i understand why people would. I don't hate him specifically mainly because he was only one part of the poor writing that was seed destiny. I prefer Amuro, Kamille and Heero protagonist wise.

totally swerving off topic but:

Halo: Reach, anyone else getting it? Can't wait for my legendary edition, haha.

[Re4_wesker]

I am but not right away. I may wait a week or two just so i can hear all the reactions from the players.

Also everyone. If you know whats good for you, stay away from Resident Evil Afterlife.

[KiraYamatoFreedom]

I plan to get the game but I don't have xbox live so no online for me

However the story looks to be more then entertaining for me, I hated how ODST was set, I had to redo all the missions without stopping to get the last one, that is several hours I will never get back. But it was fun killing all those Covenant soilders, hate the engineers when you got no beam or plasma weapons to shoot them.

And I never really liked the Resident Evil series.

[Dark Lord Revan]

Resident evil movies....meh. As for halo i still dont own a 360....will rape it silly at my cuz's house at the end of the year. Should be freaking awesome though, its bungie's last halo game.

Im thinking that yes, the english version will again have random shitty music tracks. Im so totally getting the J-version already.

I dont like or dislike Kira really. I feel that there's nothing really wrong with his character post-seed per se, but the plot needlessly threw him into alot of places he shouldnt have been in. The only really shitty characters in destiny are shinn and cagalli, the rest is just horrible plot.

Actually the reason why the 2nd game of any series doesnt give you everything is because it makes little marketing sense. If you throw everything thats left into an earlier game, you wont have anything new to put into a new version. Plus you'd have to buy even more licenses anyway. Thats why 3rd games and up have something closer to a full character set in fan-games like these.

[KiraYamatoFreedom]

Yeah, that makes sense, those guys always think of ideas on how to make a lot of money.



On another note, has anyone heard anything about our modelers since they haven't posted for a while.

[Re4_wesker]

No unfortunately. Haven't seen them around.

Well i just finished ZZ Gundam. I have mixed feelings about that series. For one thing it had some really good parts (like the colony drop at Dublin and the battle at Dakar) but there were also some horrendously boring and bad parts (the first like 15-20 episodes minus Yazan and a handful of filler episodes later in the series.). I kinda wish there was some more development for specific characters. For one thing, i think there should have been more buildup to Glemy's rebellion instead suddenly just showing it in the last few episodes. Also, the ending seemed rushed to me.

For some reason i want Mashymyre to show up in Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 now after watching ZZ lol.

[Rau Le Creuset]

AND MAN DO I LOVE THE NEW FORGE LEVEL AND THE STUFF YOU CAN PUT IN IT!!!


P.S. I forgot to tell you my Xbox Live account thing is "Iceco" without the "", just in case anybody wants to play reach with me.

spoilers man

[Stargazer]

wow Rau, spoilers much?

jesus man.

[Dark Lord Revan]

Valkyria chronicles 3......but on PSP. *Cries*......*dies*

Crap man. Whats with this crap shit PSP business, its more money making again, goddammit. On the flip side, it'll probably be out in english this time next year >_>

[Stargazer]

I'd vastly prefer it on PS3, but I do have a PSP so not all is lost.

still gotta play two, haha.

BUT

more Dragon Age first.

[Dark Lord Revan]

Ah dragon age....well after 3 horrible DLCs that did not really advance their respective characters....i dont know about that.

Hell, even though i say that, i'll still buy it when its out....

Valk 2 is ok really, although the school setting chafes at times. Plus grinding doesnt belong in Valk....you need to farm credits to upgrade people to new classes. I see they're going to put good stuff like area switching from 2nd and the storybook mission style and art direction from the 1st, so 3rd should be the best yet. Wasted on psp somewhat, but as always i'll definitely get it.

[Stargazer]

ugh. just ugh.

I went back to Halo 3 to get the legendary achievement so I could unlock some armors for Reach.

Only level I haven't done is Cortana, and I now realize why, it's horrible. One of the worst levels in the history of gaming.

[Re4_wesker]

Kinda brings you back to the hell that was that one level in the first game. You know, the one with guilty spark and the constant hordes of flood. XD

I would help you with it but i just got rid of my halo 3 copy recently.

btw i got the lair of the shadowbroker dlc for mass effect 2. it was pretty good.

Edit: They announced the new dmc game. I'm pretty unhappy with Dante's new character design personally. Also it's gonna be a reboot. -_-

Edited by Re4_wesker, 17 September 2010 - 03:37 AM.

[Stargazer]

new Dante looks horrible.

[Dark Lord Revan]

Horrible level design in a halo game? No wayyyyyyyyy.....

Ahem. Dont mind me, my cousin, and others, just seem to think halo is invincible as a game series. I just think ranges from pretty good to ok, although granted i havent touched reach yet.

Horrible dante is horrible. He's also known as adam lambert. I cant believe there are actually people defending the new look. Fuck, what the hell is he doing smoking anyway...dante never smoked, way back when they were designing the original they thought smoking as a cheap way to make someone look badass, so they had him eat pizza and sundaes instead.

And the hair. THE HAIR. Fuck, whats the point of these changes? If you really needed him to look more decrepit, you could have given him shortened WHITE hair. He was fucking born with it. Fuck this common street thug look. And voice. And ninja theory.
