Comment on Mini Review: Persona 4 Arena by Nemphtis

I also received my copy but haven’t played it yet. Not really sure if there’s much of a point as the scene in London is pretty much dead for this game. My friends have been playing the import version for months, so having a P4A night at my house is basically going to be suicide.

Drive may be viable if it’s only a few people who want the video but if too many request it, it’s probably unsustainable.

P4A is a very weird fighting game. Still trying to get my head around working the persona attacks into some combos, and the story mode is a real chore to go through…
Sadly, I have no news about P5. None of the gaming news sites have reported anything beyond rumour and Atlus has no presence in the UK and treat us with contempt (at least that’s how the release of P4A feels like) so none of my inside sources have anything.

You are lucky you got your copy of P4A, for some stupid reason shopto erased my card info so my order ended up being delayed. Fortunately the guy I contacted promised it would be sent via next day guaranteed. As for your mech video, you could try google drive (or google docs) to upload and share your video like I did. That way you can share your video without the need for anyone having to seed, not sure if there are restrictions on file size. (PS: I hear Persona 5 is getting a release date soon is that true or not?)

Attack on Titan is a weird one as the story loves throwing curveballs at you. Once you settle on a rhythm, it does something to throw it off and then you repeat.

I’m not a fan or OreImo either but I have a policy of watching sequels unless the first season actually offended me regarding how bad it was. Vampire knight, I’m looking at you!

Started watching Attack on Titan, but will plan to watch Valvrave and Nyaruo W this season. Not so sure about OreImo though, as I find Kirino quite hard to bear.

Something caught my attention when I first saw the manga cover for Attack on Titan in Japan last year, and its serious nature got me curious enough to start watching.

No shooting games, sadly. It’s all about competitive games in there. Tho they plan to put in some DDR and PIU machines in the near future.

As for P4A, a couple of the guys are really chummy with PQube and they were given PS3 code to put on machines so they can take them to events (like that one) for others to play. In their words “The game is done and ready to be released but they are contractually unable to until Atlus gives the OK” Then again, PQube doesn’t exactly have the best record for timely releases on their own!

So this is what you were talking about earlier, its been a while since I travelled to west london (mainly to visit WLRC) maybe when they have everything finished. Though I very rarely visit arcade centres, and I usually only go for the shooting games like time crisis. Anyway how is it possible that they have persona 4 arena on PS3 when the game isn’t even out yet? Or are they using a modded system running the JP/NA release?

Yeah, I’m aiming for all japanese openings. Zoids is pretty easy to find otherwise…

Still grabbing a few here and there but someone pointed me to some videos of a guy who tried to do a similar thing, except there’s no order in the videos (one goes from 98~2002 and then 03~08) and movies and OVAs were included, which lead to a load of AMVs being put in there. Mine will, hopefully, be a tidier version. Plus he missed out a few, like Panda Z!

Your Welcome. Its lucky you mention them, I was deleting a huge backlog of old shows when I found them. There used to be a brasilian irc channel which specialized in raw dvd rips but they recently shut down their channel and deleted all their content (some torrents still exist, weak seeds though). I checked my Zoids new century/Fuzors & transformers armada and they are all english dubbed I assume you want the original japanese versions?

Thanks again. Nabbed the lot. Took a while cos I only just got back to my own place with real internet as opposed to some slow as hell crap with a ridiculously low d/l limit from out in the boonies! Weekend was also pretty mental as I checked out a new arcade place which opened in West london. Pretty interesting place! Worth checking out but it is rather out of the way…
