LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

On the future of some gamers

Before Microsoft and Sony do something regarding their future in the video game business, I wanted to write, and I've wanted it for a long time now, but other things kept getting in my way, and fearing that tomorrow might be too late, today will have to do.   Months ago,...

Why Haven't I Heard of Dragon's Crown Until Now?

Posted on Saturday, June 11 @ 15:31:38 Eastern by
How I didn't hear about Dragon's Crown for the upcoming PS Vita and PS3 (thanks, Diabolus!) this entire week is blasphemy. I would have been much more excited about the new Sony handheld if I knew this was coming, since I have seen more than my fair share of fantasy action RPGs at E3 2011 - EA's Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Capcom's Dragon's Dogma, WB Games' Dungeons & Dragons: The Lord of the Rings, Atari's Neverwinter Knights 2 Dungeons & Dragons: Neverwinter Nights, Namco's Dark Souls, and Bethesda's The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (I'm sure I'm forgetting a few). Though many of them are already shaping up to be blissful, time-sucking interpretations of Western folklore, they were all... predictable.

Vanillaware, known for Muramasa: The Demon's Blade (which still belongs in the Top 10 games for the Wii), looks to change that, by giving the Western RPG a Japanese makeover, similar to how Microsoft gave the Japanese RPG an American makeover with Lost Odyssey. From the trailer below, it gives the genre the art style from Muramasa and what looks to be six-player cooperative play. Let's hope this means actual online play (and not just ad-hoc for the PS Vita), or all my excitement will be for naught.

    Im gonna take a wild guess and say you dont know what misogyny is, since i fail to see how some big breasted women characters means the creators hated woman, especially since its no different than having a giant hulking man.

    I think he meant that the character design is very chauvinistic over woman, I.e declares superiority of males but portraying women without dignity (cause of their Characterize like design of their breast and wearing little attire) While the men are either intimidating or wearing modestly attire (bulky male and the fact they are wearing huh... pants).

    Happy, warmaster?

    Ya, fool, and you should probably be using the adjective form, misogynistic.

    I was gonna say, "YES! Another Shadow over Mystara game!" I spend Sooooo many quarters there on that D&D game with all it's many story path system! It had dragons, shield wielding elves, paladin dwarves, axe fighting warriors, goblins withces, vampires and liches! I really was gonna say this game here is an homage....
    ...Then the physic defying sorceress appeared and killed that bat monster with her butt, sigh...
    Even the thief from Shadow over Mystara was more proper clothed for goodness sake!
