I was about to get the ps3 version until this was announced! I hope they sell this at my local Walmart, I can't wait to see the confused look of all the soccer moms in line with me as I purchase this game! >=D
I was always gonna get this for the 360, but this just adds some more incentive. I won't buy this because I couldn't put it on my bookshelf, but I am envious of those who can put it on display for everyone.
So its better because it comes with shit? Ok. That makes every game that is cross platform better for the PS3 simply because the inside artwork is always better. Lame argument. You may want to have the headline read: Xbox Agarest war comes with shit, unlike the pS3 version.
1). You had me at oppai mousepad. So much for getting the PSN dl version.
2). @Thorsteinthereallylongnameguy: Calm down and stop taking the article so seriously. I'm not calling you a PS3 fanboy, but you are exhibiting the familiar symptoms with that comment.
1. Am I the only one who is a bit suprised that this thing is only getting a T rating?
2. In between this, Muscle March and Tatsunoko vs Capcom, does it look like 2010 is going to be the year of Japanese games that should have no shot of a release in the U.S. getting brought over here? And if so, what other strange goodies can we look forward to later this year.
3: HOLY FUCK, $60 for all of THAT?! Best Collector's Edition EVER!
@ bastardmaster: Comsidering that average cost of an anime/game related Oppai mouse pad is roughly $49.99USD, this should be considered a bargain @ $59.99 USD (just think of the game, pillow casing, and sound tracks as extras). ^_^
I'm planning on buying this limited edition, and I don't even have an Xbox 360. My plan is to simply keep all the extras and return the game alone. If I can't do that, then I guess I'll have to sell it to somebody.
It really does piss me off that Aksys is doing this for the X360 version, when they originally said they'd be attempting to treat each version equally.
@ onomelon
It only got a T rating because, honestly, the game isn't that bad. Aksys is just taking the whole "Soul Breeding" concept - one that is very rarely used, and never shown on screen - WAY TOO FAR.
I cannot wait to see the mainstream news version of this release.
"Game company blatantly releases masturbation simulator on the popular xbox game console"
with total disregard to what the actual products inside the box are or to the fact that gameplay is different.
Then the femenist groups, oh my god the game glorifies objectifying woman!!! you have to have babies with one at the end! disregarding the fact that it comes after marriage(in-game) and doesn't show anything.
Every time that the game's classic RPG elements and cool features like generational heroes gets me interested in the game, Aksys manages to completely turn me off by making super smutty trailers or including boobie mouse pads. If the game is shameless like Ar Tonelico (my guilty pleasure), I'm cool with it, but aksys is making it out to be way beyond the limit.
Maybe I'll get the PS3 version so I can delete it, hiding the evidence anytime a girl is over.
Attention Compile Heart and Aksis Games: Stop with this shit. Since the very start of your advertising for this game, I have learned NOTHING. I have no idea what this game is, so stop beating me over the head with what you probably consider tongue-in-cheek humor and just try to sell your product.

Just because it looks so fucked up.
btw. 1. is invalid. I've seen plenty of Physical copies of the PS3 version.
EU ftw?

pre-order it there

I figured you'd all like to know.
And I will second the 'How the fk did this get a T rating?' inquiry.
*Goes back to mocking the iMaxiPad*

Don't forget DeathSmiles. Aksys Games is bringing that game too.
