Ni no Kuni bundled with 'magical' PS3 in Japan

Aug 31st 2011 6:08AM (Joystiq)
Games might be region free, but DVD and some Blu-Rays are not. But maybe more importantly, I noticed that there is some different usage of the four Playstation symbol buttons on Asian models as well, I think the X and Circle symbol are often used opposite of here, so one should be mindful of that too before considering to order Asian PS3 units. Used to have a Hong Kong PS3 for a while and it was irritating that which buttons to use jumped back and forth based on game preference (using US/EU setup) and console preference (using Asian setup).

First two Skyrim DLC packs heading to Xbox 360 first

Thank you Bethesda, your decision has made me certain that I should wait a couple of Months at least with getting Skyrim, being a single player game there is no advantage to getting it at launch anyway. So not only have you saved my a lot of money on the game, by buying it at a reduced prize later on, but I am sure that by the time I am ready for the DLC, that is on sale too.

Still waiting for the Soul Calibur Move announcement, come on Sony, kick some Namco butt and make it happen :)

Limbo rating sought by Sony in Korea, could be PSN-bound

@The Doom - screw over the buyers of the original game? They have gotten a full year exclusivity which I would think is just as good as getting some bonus stuff a year later. Cut the game devs some slack please, because with attitudes like you they are in a damned if you do and damned if you don't situation. Listened to this great interview with Gabe Newel recently and as he pointed out, there are always a lot more things they want to do than they actually have the time and money to do, so you got to make hard choices. And for an independent developer to do staged releases, in order to make things viable for their budget, where they sugar the pill for the first platform with a period of exclusivity and then sugar the pill for the later platforms by adding some extra stuff is not being mean or assholes, it is just making ends meet and making it tempting for people to get a 'year old game'.

'Amy' dev Paul Cuisset discusses game's autistic character, female leads

I think leading on PSN shows that developers have realized that Sony is the game company this generation who has really been interested in trying to go for games a little outside the norm, and also seemingly having succeeded in building a market for such games, withf Heavy Rain doing so well for instance.

Hmm, strangely enough I have a feeling that if I get a 3D TV this would not be the first game I want to try out

Special edition Tales of Xillia PS3 bundle coming to Japan

May 30th 2011 3:11PM (Joystiq)
To bad they don't bring any of these to Europe, and while I like these special editions I am not so keen I buy a japanese console to trade the case with my european one (to avoid region issues), as my guess a japanese console wouldn't get a great price on ebay.

New 'limited' PS3 bundle throws in Call of Duty: Black Ops

May 25th 2011 10:03AM (Joystiq)
If they really wanted this to sell like hot cakes they should have made a custom casing for the PS3, like they did for MGS4 and Final Fantasy in Japan.
