Yakuza 0 is getting a physical and digital release "early 2017" on the PS4 in North America and Europe. :D The game will retain its original Japanese audio and opt for subtitles rather than a dub. I am very okay with this.

I've never tried any of the other games in the series so far, but I think I'll have to give this one a try. It looks pretty great.

I'm definitely curious about the Yakuza games! It's been a long time since I've played a sandboxy game, but this one looks pretty interesting.

I preordered this guy, especially seeing as it'll have an exclusive soundtrack/artbook for preorders through Amazon:


However, I notice that it didn't get great reviews. I'm not familiar with Langrisser at all, so I'm wondering if that'd be a good thing. A lot of folks seem to be saying that it just isn't a Langrisser game in the end.

Always surprised when they decide to localize something that didn't do that well in Japan.  *shrugs* Maybe there will be improvements with this version, similar to how they've modified Bravely Second for the west.

Gal Gun: Double Peace was announced to be getting a limited edition through Rice Digital's online store. The "Mr. Happiness Edition" comes with a physical copy of the game, an art book, a soundtrack, a wall scroll featuring two of the main characters, some DLC costumes, and... a screen cleaner that looks like panties. :-[ There will be both NA and EU versions of this limited edition, and both will be available through Rice Digital.

Here's a link to the preorders for those that are interested: http://www.ricedigital.co.uk/store/series/gal-gun

Im supper confused on what the 'screen cleaner' actually is. An actual micro cleaning pad that is just hysterically shaped or real panties that can be used as a screen cleaner?

I'm mostly certain that it's just one of those microfiber cleaning cloths and it's just shaped like panties.

small update this week ;)

Couple of comments. First, are we sure that Setsuna is going to have a physical release? And YIIK is getting a physical release via Limited Run Games.

Oh holy crap. Star Ocean NA release date just announced, June 28th.

June?

June!?!?

They're trying to kill me in June. As of now I have preordered for June:

Odin Sphere CE
No Man's Sky CE
Grand Kingdom LE

And now this.  I can't pass on SO. Or Odin Sphere. Or NMS. I don't *want* to pass on GK, but...do I? Or do I sell a kidney? And what about the TIME!?  MADNESS!!!

*sigh*

I guess there's only one solution....
