It's the BAC Mono, a road car.

Great handling and acceleration but only 285hp so it loses out at top speed.

In Japan, The Vita Has More Upcoming Games Than Any Other Console

Number of games scheduled for release in Japan up to the end of March: 1

Great, now I just need to brush up on my Hiragana.

The article itself even states that the ps vita is being eclipsed by the 3ds in japan.

Seems like nintendo will be releasing quality games, while the vita is focusing on quantity.

We already know which aspect is better.

Who cares about 3DS v PSV

That's not a video game. They just took a picture of a real person.

Every year since I was a kid, a game makes me think, "Man, video games can't get much better than this".

I said that to a game like Gran Tourismo 2.

Troy Baker's bromance of Nolan North episode 2:http://www.gameinformer.com/b/featu...rted-4-united-nolan-north-and-troy-baker.aspx

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Thanks man.
You guys think $12 for "Devil May Cry: HD collection" is a good deal or nah? I'm contemplating on getting it.

+

If you guys think Ruby Weapon was difficult in FFVII, wait till' you get around to playing "FFXIII: Lightning Returns" and have to fight Aeronite. You'll literally sell/throw away the game. Absolute nightmare of a boss.

Really? I found Caius more difficult than that.

Wait, you defeated "Aeronite"? And yeah Caius was especially tough for me because I didn't heal once and I literally survived his last blow with 1 HP left. Epic battle, it was...

 

[Bad Religion]

Yea, I had a really good rotation. It was almost a year ago now so the details are a little fuzzy.

It was one of the last trophies I received before the platinum.

I followed this as closely as I could and beat him. Now it gets fuzzy here: I THINK I did it on my first playthrough, as I only did 1 and 1/2 to get the Plat.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

There is an invisible time-limit to defeating Aeronite. If you don't achieve Knockout on him quickly enough, he'll fly away and escape from the battle and it will take several in-game hours for him to respawn in The Dead Dunes. His attacks include -Ga level spells and Ultimate Magic such as Freeze, and he has a number of special moves that can deal 10,000+ Damage and can one-shot Lightning. On Easy Difficulty, Aeronite has somewhere in the neighborhood of ~10,000,000 HP and you need to achieve Knockout on him *four times* before his defenses are lowered enough to begin dealing a significant amount of damage back to him.

You should be on NG+ to have a decent chance at winning, with at least ~3000 Attack/Magic, 8 GP and 10 Item slots. Bring at least 4 revival items (ie. Phoenix Downs), 4 GP recovery items (ie. Elixirs, Ethers, Turbo Ethers) and 1 item that can grant Bravery (ie. Hero Medicine). The "Jungle Hunter" Garb is a must for Artemis Pierce, and your Magic schemas should have Fira, Deshell and Deprotect among their spells. It's also not a bad idea to equip Pain-resistant Accessories; Aeronite can cast Painga which will make the battle more troublesome than it needs to be if you get afflicted with Pain.

Spam Aeronite with Fira, Overclocking as necessary, in order to achieve the first four Knockouts ASAP. Try to stick Deprotect and Deshell on him as well; he'll resist it at the beginning, but as he gets weaker and weaker with each Knockout as the battle progresses, it will become easier to land. Once you've knocked him out for the fourth time, immediately use your Bravery-granting item (ie. Hero Medicine) to increase your Attack, hit Overclock, and go to town with Artemis Pierce. If you continue repeatedly Overclocking (I hope you brought a lot of Ethers!) Aeronite won't have an opportunity to recover from Knockout and you can basically destroy him as he lays helpless on the ground.

Now that I am remembering, I had waaaaaay more probelms with Ereshkigal than Aeronite. I may have gotten lucky with Aeronite. But Ereshkigal took probably 7-10 tries.

It rarely loads for me. I usually just do in my ps consoles because sonyentertainmentnetork.com is horrible.

I played the lego batman 2 demo last week. Troy Baker.

I copped lego super heroes last week. Troy Baker.

I copped Batman Origins 2 days ago. Troy Baker.

If I hated Troy Baker, I'd be going insane

Evil Within worth $30 or should i wait a month or so to get it for less?


Next week is the release of the RE1: Gamecube version remake

Anyone else getting it?

My cousins got the PS1 before I did and I felt the exact same way about GT1 when they were playing a demo of it.

We were losing our **** like, "They look and sound like real cars!"

Maybe Kotaku has a hate on for Ubisoft, but the other major DLC that dropped for one of their franchises sounds pretty bad.

This was me before, but i found the fix for it.  Just hold the PS button on your DS4 and log out.  Then relog back in, PSN store and the "What's New" should load now.

I find when i have a game open, party chat, frequently looking at friend's list, watching streams, basically going in and out of menus or apps on the XMB, it takes the memory used to load "What's New" and the PS store.

Disappointing.

It feels like this generation already hit it's peak only after a year.

Disappointing.

i dont think so. i have faith in ND. if they decided not to push their game to 60 its for a reason. and personally, i dont look at specs as a tell-all. 30 or 60 wont matter if the game looks beautiful

If the game runs nicely I won't complain and the devs still have a lot of time to push the consoles to its limits idk how ou can say it has already hit its peak yet papi have faith in this new generation of games. 2014 was bad but 2015 will be better
