Can’t wait for this game. I’ve downloaded the demo on Halloween and was pleasantly surprised. I want to get this as soon as it’s released. I’ve been in a video game slump and this game looks like it’s going to get me interested in gaming again.
Absolutely loved the demo of this. Played it back-to-back about 10 times over. I’d had a casual eye on this title but since that demo it’s become a ‘must have’ game overnight.
I’m hearing very good things from people that have spent some time with Valkyria Chronicles. It’s cheap too! Shame I have no time to play it. At least Mirror’s Edge should be quick to pick up and put down.
I fear that Valkyria Chronicles will be this generation’s Ring of Red.
Yep. I have to say, playing through the demo at home after completing the tutorial was so much better than playing it at Eurogamer Expo. It’s a no-brainer for me.
No, that’s bad. However you look at it. Quite why they decided to bring the release forward to coincide with Fallout 3, LBP and a James Bond game, I have no idea.
Such a shame that original, different games get shoe-horned into limited releases and hidden on shelves behind big-budget stuff. And then they wonder why they don’t sell.

Wish i could support it. I do really like, it, but my purchases are much better and I can’t afford anymore.
Blerk said:
Come on then, Pud. What are you buying?
No_PUDding said:
LittleBigPlanet and Valkyria Chronicles.
By the way, I am not a JRPG fan, I just wanted to try it beacuse the demo was awesome.
How about you?

I really love the music they’re using for ME.

I’ve no idea what I’m buying. There’s almost too much to choose from.

Good choice, Pud.
No_PUDding said:
Blerk, agreed!
I know Syrok
Shatner, Ring of Red? All i read was reception, and it seemed worse a reception than Valkyria Chronicles so far.
Blerk said:
Valkyria’s done very well at review, but has totally tanked at retail, unfortunately.

Shatner: There will only be one Ring of Red this gen.

Blerk, little early considering we haven’t had the release in EU/NA.
We won’t know until next month.
And 147,000 (as far as I remember, Psychotext amirite?) in Japan is pretty good for a niche title.
Blerk said:
Pud, it was out in the EU last week. And only managed to reach number 18 on the PS3-only chart.
Shatner said:
Tonka, that was cheap and unnecessary.
No_PUDding said:
Thats not bad cosndiering all the major multipatform releases.
Was that stupid Chartrack without numbers?
(i thought it came out November 4th here
)

Yes, they are stupid.
I would have preferred buy this next summer during the drought.
Psychotext said:
Pud: Almost… it’s done ~130k so far in Japan (~77k first week). It’s still a good showing for a HD title over there.
No_PUDding said:
Not bad at all.
Need to buy it sharpish, or I can give it long legs lol. It deserves it.
