Sony Computer Entertainment Japan today revealed three new titles that will be joining their “Playstation 3 the Best” lineup (which is the Japanese Equivalent to Greatest Hits in North America).
Online retailer Amazon.com has partially revealed the North American Playstation updates for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable on March 15th and March 22nd.
NIS America today launched the official web site for the Playstation 3 exclusive RPG, Ar tonelico Qoga, revealing the game’s limited edition “Premium Box Set.”
The Entertainment Software Rating Board has released a rating summary for the mature-rated Playstation 3 RPG, Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel, detailing the game’s sexual themes, language and more.
"Ryuta Sato on censorship:
"First of all, if you think Ar tonelico is dirty, that's because you've got something on your mind. It's totally innocent. It's not supposed to be dirty or provocative. You know, the presenter said it's provocative, right? I think it's his perception. For me, it's totally innocent. But I do understand what you're talking about. The only thing I can say is - "you'll get everything that is in the Japanese version, and even more." So, to answer your question, we can ..."
NIS America held a press event last night and sent press releases today for three new game localizations set for to release later this year and into 2011. NISA says they hope to correct the errors of their ways by concentrating more on quality control to prevent embarassments like Ar tonelico II and Rhapsody DS from happening again.
The first game announced is Cladun: This is an RPG, a dungeon-crawling RPG with randomly-generated dungeon. The game is for the PSP, and will only be availab...
Nao Zook of NIS America says that they are “really hoping” they can localize the recently-released Playstation 3 exclusive Japanese RPG, Ar Tonelico III, for North America.
"Bear with me here, since I’m treading on unfamiliar territory. My Game News Flash are reporting that Ar Tonelico III is rated 18+ — the highest possible age-rating — in Korea. This seems rather odd, considering it’s rated CERO C (15+) in Japan and will most likely be rated “T” by the ESRB just like its predecessors, if it gets localized. From what I can tell of the box, the reasons behind the rating are violence and some kind of sexual content… but this is a Gust RPG."
"Harusato Akenaga on NISA possibly localizing Ar tonelico III if given the opportunity:
"Yes. Basically, I like that game, and many of our fans like that game, but we had some problems [with the] Ar tonelico II localization. We are really sorry for that. But still, we want to get the license for Ar tonelico III. And, we'll be really careful not to make that problem with the next title.""
