The first installment of cheeky little parody RPG Hyperdimension Neptunia didn't exactly set Matt's world alight last year, but that certainly didn't stop Idea Factory from making a sequel, and NIS America from bringing it to the English-speaking side of the pond. Now Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk. 2 is on its way to the PS3, and NIS America have a TON of screenshots to show you.
The new game will be featuring a speedier, revamped battle system, more cheeky referential humor in the world of GameIndustri, cutesy personifications of consoles and developers (including Nippon Ichi herself), and extensive cameos from Japanese luminary (and Mega Man man) Keiji Inafune, who's taking time out of his quest to save the Japanese game industry to appear as a character, special weapon, and super-attack, as well as an advice-giver who appears via "Chirper", a cheeky parody of Twitter.

Despite ... The Disgaea franchise is known to get a little crazy every now and then. But not this crazy!
It appears as if returning protagonist Laharl is going to undergo some... changes at some point in the game. Siliconera is reporting...
At this point, you know whether you're a Disgaea fan or not. If you're not, part of the reason may be the lack of a return to Laharl's classic tale in Hour of Darkness: which Disgaea Dimension 2 is fixing, seeing as it's a f... More news is starting to roll in for Disgaea Dimension 2, and it's looking better and better as time goes on. It looks like a new cast member will join in for this direct continuation of Hour of Darkness: Laharl's younger sis... Look, I have nothing against Disgaea 2's Adelle, Disgaea 3's Mao, and Disgaea 4's Valvatorez (I love them all actually), but there's just something about Laharl that made the original game so special.Well, after years of... I first heard of this news a few days ago, but I held off on posting it until I could get more concrete information. Thankfully, it looks like the internet rumblings have been correct, as La Pucelle: Tactics is going to be a ... Fact: The English-language VA for Laharl in the original Disgaea is Barbara Goodson, who also voiced Rita Repulsa in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Boom! Suck on that knowledge!
