Awesome Radical Gaming

Gaming news that is both awesome AND radical.

Atlus

  • How radical is this news? I’d say, from 1 to 10, an 11. I can’t hardly breathe, the awesomeness is just too much. This week’s Famitsu has tons of information about the upcoming Persona 4, which will be on the PS2. Persona 4 is set in the countryside and the story revolves around a murder…

  • If I had to use two words to describe Persona 3 to someone new to the series I would say this: “awesome…radical”. I can’t wait to hear that same song remixed 20 different ways again.

  • Atlus has put up a pretty nice site up for FES here, there is a good amount of information, screens, desktops, and even small clips of characters from the original game. Also, some new screens have shown up.

  • Atlus has officially announced that Persona 3 FES is coming to North America April 22. 30 more hours of Persona 3…I don’t know if I can handle the awesomeness. And it’s only $29.99, which is nice. You can read all the details I received through email below…

  • Atlus has setup a new web page with a count down clock to some awesome new announcement. Kotaku hinted that they would announce Persona 3: FES, an add-on disc for Persona 3 that adds a good amount of new content (game play and storyline) to the main game and includes a continuation of the story…

  • Well, it’s official, Atlus is bringin R-Type Command (R-Type Tactics) to the U.S. on May 6th. R-Type Command is a turn-based strategy game, a far cry from the normal R-Type side scrolling shoot-em-up. I’m pretty sure that Atlus is the best video game company, ever. They bring everything over even though they know they won’t…

  • Robot bugs, hundreds of weapons, and over 50 maps…what more could you want in a strategy RPG? March 25th, 2008 can’t come soon enough. Giant robot bugs are always super awesome. The whole press release is below:

  • Atlus announced their newest North American release today, Baroque. It’s a dungeon-crawling RPG for both the Wii and PS2 (the PS2 is still totally “in”). They go on to describe the game as being dark, challenging, and totally immersive. Sounds like fun and I’m glad to see the Wii is getting in on the action.…

  • Yes, I actually completed a game…I even saw the credits. Etrian Odyssey was released on May 15, 2007 and I bought it the day it came out…so that’s roughly…6 months, 4 days. After watching the credits and getting a “Fin” I saw that there is some post-game stuff to do, so I haven’t nearly done…

  • Atlus announced today that it will be brining over two tactical RPG’s for the Xbox 360. The first is Spectral Force 3, which takes place in the fantasy world of Neverland, detailing the First Neverland War. Sounds fun…the other is Operation Darkness, the crazy World War II game where you fight zombies, werewolves, and probably…

  • Normally, whenever I think of an R-Type game I think side-scrolling shooter with tons of slow down because a million things are happening on the screen at the same time. R-Type Tactics, however, is a turn-based strategy game and rumor has it Atlus is going to publish it stateside under the name R-Type Command. Furthermore,…

  • Persona 3, Atlus’ totally radical RPG for the PS2, will soon get it’s own television anime series. The title of the anime will be “Persona -trinity soul-” and premiere in January 2008. The storyline? Apparently it’s set 10 years after the game and the dead have risen with their skin turned inside out. Which is…
