I didn't really enjoy Tokyo Xanadu so it was a good thing I bought it second hand. However, I do like it's artwork - well, nearly all Falcom's artwork are good. Even Makoto Shinkai worked for them before after all. So I decided to import this A4 160 page "visual guide" artbook. Unfortunately, the wrapper arrived damaged because the proxy...
Tokyo Xanadu is your usual JRPG high school setting with students having special powers. Red tears appear around the world as demons known as Greed are trying to invade the human world. Kou is caught up with the class president Hiragi one day and finds out he too has the Soul Device power that allows him to fight against these demons...
While browsing through my gaming news sources I came by some "Games of the Year" articles so I thought I'd write my own to sum up 2013's year of gaming. I used to be a PC gamer but as my interest grew in Japanese exclusive Anime and games and, I started to have a proper income I moved to console gaming. Internet made it easy to import games and...
And you can find the official press release in PDF here. It was pretty much expected if you've played the game. Falcom pretty much did what they did to Sora no Kiseki (Trails in the Sky) to "Sen no Kiseki (Trails in a Flash)" too - leave a big cliffhanger for players. However, it's good news we're getting more of the same because Falcom...
It appears Falcom are accepting applications for anyone who'd like to have a role voice acting in their fourth "Sora no Kiseki" sequel, "Zero no Kiseki". Applications began on Monday shortly after they announced the game and will be open until May 31st. The application procedure is simple - Pick one of the shown character sprites on...
Falcom must really love their "Sora no Kiseki" RPG setup because they are now working on a fourth title for the PSP! There's not much information regarding this new title named "Zero no Kiseki" at the moment other than teaser screenshots and that the protagonists are named Loyd Bannings and Elly McDowell. Apparently these characters...
First thing's first. People seem to have confused Ys The Oath in Felghana being Ys7 so I'd just like to make it clear Felghana was really more of a side story like Ys Origin. I guess that's why Falcom decided to write the English word "Seven" instead of using the Roman numeral. So the Ys ARPG series has reached its seventh title, "Ys Seven...
Falcom has released a trailer for their latest title in the Ys series and also announced a limited edition. The price of the limited edition will include a drama CD which has a story taking place between Ys VI and Ys VII. Also, don't forget the pre-order goodies that includes a teaser booklet about Legend of Heroes VII!
I don't know... It...
The official site for Falcom's next Ys title is up and reveals that the ARPG will be available from Japan on September 17th. Besides that, the game will also come with a slightly different set of bonus goods than their usual packaging. This time it will include an "Ys History Soundtrack" covering a selection of tracks from the entire Ys...
Falcom has announced that the next title in their Ys series will not be developed for the PC but the PSP instead! Due sometime this September, Ys VII takes place in the Dukedom of Altago and will feature a new three member party battle system allowing you to select two other characters to support you. I hope this doesn't ruin the insanely...
