I traded in my copy of Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor this week. This is coming from someone that likes to keep all of his games. I love the game, but I know a bigger and better version is on its way.
Devil Survivor Overclocked will come to the 3DS on August 23, and with it comes a bunch of enhancements and additions, as you'll see in this new trailer. We'll get better audio, including voice-overs for almost every line of dialogue. All the art has been remastered, as well. Also, a brand new eighth chapter has been added to the story. Yes, I'll have to start over from the beginning with this new one. That's not a bad thing, though.
This is shaping up to be the first real RPG for the 3DS. And we're getting it before Japan? Wins all around.
FFFFFinally, I never played the original but I've been craving for an rpg for my 3DS lately. And what better way to start than with a game from the Shin Megami Tensei series.
Other than that, I believe Yuzu is the same girl that played Rika in Digimon Tamers. And now I Googled it, so I'm sure. She's pretty competent, so even if I wanted her to sound a little girlier, she's alright. And, even though Atsuro was a techno geek, I still imagined him to have a slightly deeper voice. Whom I'm assuming to be Amane, that one is perfect for me. Sounds alright to good so far, so I'm happy.
I'm looking forward to this game, especially since I never got the original version. I, for one, am cool with voices. They sound appropriate for what are probably supposed to be seemingly normal teenage kids. Also, have voice work for almost every line is huge.
Devil Survivor is my least favorite SMT game and while a good game it was boring to play repeatedly. Needless to say I am not getting this. On the other hand, Devil Survivor 2 I will probably get.
The Games sounds ok to me... voices will be cheesy in japanese also... they all are.
Get used to it people.
Always bitching... even if its a good game ... what next? ..."Oh noes DS remakes on the 3DS?!... FUUUUU!!"
How many remakes and PS1/2 ports are on the PSP and people dont bitch? And now PS3 with its lazy HD remakes and PSP to 3 ports of not that old games? Gamers that dont know better... eh?
It'll probably be a year or two until I get around to purchasing a 3DS. Do I wait until then to get the newer better version, or do I just buy the orignal DS version?
Oh come on! Those voices are beyond terrible! They're even trying to pronounce Japanese names, which western people always fail at (and these idiots fail miserably!) How is that a good thing? This is a no buy simply because I fucking despise these ridiculously amateru voice "actors". What, they picked up some random highschool dropouts and paid them a burger to read through the script with as much emotion as a lump of shit on the sidewalk?
I have some doubts Atlus is going to re-release Devil Survivor 2 on 3DS. Overclocked seems like they're testing the waters with an "easier" type of game, kinda like Catherine on PS3.
How is the Xbox One going to sell in Japan? If the new console's version of Kinect is anything like the current version of the peripheral, then probably not too good. Not to sound racist, but Japanese living rooms aren't know...
