Games of the Month: January 2012

[Gahars]

The only game on the list that I'm really looking forward to is Soul Calibur V, but with Mass Effect 3 so close, I'm going to need to safe as much money as possible for the Special Edition.

Hopefully I'll be able to manage, but it's kind of up in the air now.

I've asked Hop to do Japan releases and I just added his write-ups for Armored Core 5 and Tales of Innocence R. Thanks again for the help!

 

[machomuu]

Oh, I forgot about ToI:R. I'm anxious to see how much it's upgraded (which reminds me, I'm not that far in the DS version

 

[Devin]

Gotham Imposters is bascially TF2 in Batman form.

Can I provide my own write up? But rather than write about the games, I instead write in a manner to purposefully anger the GBAtemp userbase and insult individual members/

 

[Hyro-Sama]

_Prowler has a boner for XIII-2? LOL

The story is very sketchy but the Gameplay looks fun as hell. Thank goodness they finally added "Leader Change". I will look out for sales so I can buy it cheap.

I can't wait for the new FF, I love them games because they last me such a long time i never have to buy another game until its competed I'm also going to pick up the new Resident Evil for my 3DS when it comes down in price

 

[Scott-105]

I'm really looking forward to Resident Evil.

They must have spent about 30secs making that in MS Paint lol.

 

[Paarish]

Tales of Innocence R
Gah! So hyped!

I don't care what people think about the new song... I think it's much better then Nightingale
I'm disappointed with the graphics though... the Vita is capable of so much more

It's just placeholder boxart that I found at IGN. I could search for the correct Japanese boxart but I get rather nitpicky about boxart sizes.

 

[Rock Raiyu]

Still no release date for Armored Core 5?

It says January 26th in the write-up. If you're talking about NA and EU, then there's still none.

Yeah, I'm talking about for NA and EU. Hopefully its not too far behind.

Do you think they look awful after a resize?

 

[Guild McCommunist]

Do you think they look awful after a resize?

Well it just bothers me if they're not the same size for the medium (like 3DS games can be a different size than PS3/Xbox 360 games but I want Xbox 360/PS3 games to have the same size) and I generally CBA to resize the appropriate boxarts.

There is no confirmation of an exact US release, however I've heard a lot of rumors that it will be released in the states in Mid to Late Spring.

 

[Guild McCommunist]

@[member='Scott-105'] has offered to some PC write-ups for us. I added his Oil Rush write-up. Thanks for the work, Scott!

(Also, testing new mention feature).

 

[Gahars]

So basically, Oil Rush is Frontlines: Fuel of War but an RTS?

Eh, I'm probably the only person who remembers that game even existed, so it probably doesn't matter too much.
