  • Great job event. After hearing about the ff 13-2's ''catch a monster'' gimmic, it reminded me of ''Tales of symphonia dawn of the new world.'' They are both rpgs, they both have monster collecting, they are both sequels, and they are both games in a popular series. Although, the differences between the 2 seem to be

    1.The success of their predecessor. (Tales of Symphonia is very well liked and highly praised, FF13 was a dissapointment.)

    2.The fans wouldn't mind a sequel for the tales game.

  • @blazingdynasty

    It's sad Tales games haven't been localized more, but the fans jumped the the publishers about it. It's a damn shame when your audience for a game has to beg and threaten, just for it to be released in their region.

  • @einhalb ,PS: and when you say that no one buys now, would have thought it too short. Doom is a classic and is sure to sell well on mobile platforms.

  • 11:14 germany has lifted the doom ban after 17 years?!this is not so properly said. the publisher of Doom has noted that quite a renewed request for examination. of an age-classification alone is not repealed. There is a time-limit years of 16. thereafter, the applicant will be asked again. because the publisher Bethesda has now the right, he has now made​the request again. hangs together with the previous repurchase of id Software.

  • @EventStatus

    Right. Not to metion that SE has been milking final fantasy for years and overhyping them to the point where I dont even think FF versus will save the francise. At least with the tales series, even though they all seem similar to each other, they are not overhyped to the point that they overpromise and then they underdeliver like FF.

  • Love your vids, keep doing what you're doing! However, watch out for using that laptop on your lap. It's been shown to decrease sperm count and increase the risk of testicular cancer. Just sayin' :P

  • Event for president!

  • So I guess Dante's Rage mode in DMC has him having White Hair........

  • That college guy beat me to it lol
