TGS 08: Parasite Eve 3 teaser is hotter than a hamper full of Fira casting cats photo

With the recent announcement that Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday is going to be a PSP exclusive and not a mobile phone game (thank God!) I am now genuinely excited for it. I adore the first two Parasite Eve games on the original PlayStation so am only expecting good things from this sequel (which, if you haven’t heard, IS NOT ON MOBILE PHONES ANYMORE!).

Unfortunately, nothing is known about the game. Seriously, nothing. Like, no-one-even-knows-if-it-is-an-RPG kind of nothing.

To let people know the game at least exists, though, attendees of this week’s TGS were treated with a beautiful, oversaturated teaser poster for the upcoming game (check the gallery to view the entire thing). Do I know what is happening in it? Nope. Do I care at this point? Not really. The image is of a kick ass Aya Brea in New York City with a crumbling Statue of Liberty in the background. That’s pretty much the greatest thing ever. But, damn, someone get that Aya some patches for her jeans!

Are you a fan of the Parasite Eve games? Would you be willing to buy a PSP for this sequel? Whose third birthday do you think the game is referring to? How much do you love Aya Brea?

Already have a PSP, and definitely DO WANT.

I just hope they give up on the Resident Evil-style controls that PE2 used.

Didn't really like how PE2 was more of a RE type game, but still looking forward to this for sure!

Gonna have to echo these sentiments. Played the first two over the summer; found the second game to be kinda crappy, but the first was some of the most fun I've had with an RPG in a while.

I got suckered into buying the last 2 lame ass Parasite Eve games and they both sucked.

It was about that time I learned sqaure can make crap that is almost as bad kings knight.



But since square had the crappy final fantsy 7 and 8 and saga frontier and all there other ps1 junk out at the time I should have known better that the rest of there games on the ps1 would suck just as bad, I could have bought a decent game both times.



But This time I am not touching this one with a 12 foot pole and I am going to go buy $50 worth of tacos to shoot out of a cannon it will be more fun.

PE1's greatest asset was its story, which was PE2's biggest failure. Did we need a PE3? I thought everything was pretty much wrapped up.

Guess there's another outbreak, and Aya Brea has gotten younger, AGAIN.

Looks great. Too bad I do not have a PS3 or PSP yet.

Never played any of them... But any time the PSP has a game coming out is a good thing.

I couldn't ever really get into Parasite Eve. I don't know why, the story was cool enough, I guess the battles were just too weird for my taste.

Cube fails at everything.

I'm a big fan of PE, I still own my PS1 copy and plan to play it through soon, and while I did finish it, I didn't like PE2, felt to much like RE and not in a good way, I loved the RPG aspects of the first one and the customizable equipment, hopefully this game ends up being more RPG-ish.

Also if anyone is wondering why Aya looks so young, it was established in Parasite Eve 2 that the mitochondria stuff that gives her those weird abilities is de-aging her.

Apocalyptic New York City in the world of Parasite Eve is definitely welcome on my PSP. Looking forward to details!

jesus cube... i know everyone is entitled to an opinion, but yours really, really sucks. happy trolling.

i'd love to play this game, but i still don't own a psp :(

on the plus side, maybe this will be the game that convinces me to get one.

I'd hit that.

I mean...the game. I love the series and I would definitely buy a PSP if I don't have one by then. Been hoping they continued the series so...awesome~

I still own both Parasite Eve 1 and 2 on the PS1 and i absolutely love them. I don't own a PSP but YES I would buy one to play this game. This series just rocked, even if the story was just completely fracked up.

Hello, new wallpaper. Played through the 1st PE, got stuck at the ultimate-being-flying-alien-baby-with-the-big-head-thing. Never bothered with the second. All that said: Aya = yummy.

Hearing the Parasite Eve theme in this trailer nearly killed me yesterday in the SE Closed Theater. I really need this game. Hopefully they make it more like the first one than the second one.

I LOVED this series and quite honestly this whole generation of ps1 square games. CANT WAIT!

Also, Cube when was the last time you tried to play these games why not give them one more shot? Sometimes peoples tastes will change over the future.(I should know i used to despise FF IX)

Also, also, cocks.

The first one was great. The second one was fair. Color me semi-excited for number 3.

SHIT.

On the other hand, better that then a PS3.


(Looking forward to this, loved the PS1 games, EVEN PARASITE EVE 2 IT WAS BRILLIANT YOU FUCKS)

I'll buy this, even though I wish it was a full-fledged PS3 title instead. Parasite Eve was amazing.

A remake of the second one in the style of the original would be good too.
