The Video Game Warzone #34: Flamebait VS Sensationalism

Torrence Davis of The Bitbag writes, "On this episode one of our fans, JMD, gets into an argument with Hiphopgamer over the quality of posts that some of his writers submit to N4G. We talked particularly about Hydrolix. This lead to a discussion about Flamebait VS Sensationalism. All newspapers use sensationalism to sell papers. Some fishwraps actually lie like Star Magazine for instance. Torrence's point was that sensationalism is ok if the article makes sense. Flamebait usually leads to a one sided, biased article that's created to generate traffic. Also on this show:

* Why is no one comparing KZ2 to COD4?
* PSN gives more people to play with than Xbox Live
* Ninja Blade reactions
* E3 Party planning
* Massive Home update
* Why February's NPD shouldn't matter to anyone
* and much much more"

HipHopGamer was a decent web site until this guy jump on board. He seem to be there just to generate traffic. One day it's an anti-360 article, and the other day it's anti PS3. There's enough junk around as it is. Bring the old HHG back.

Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell Of Ar Ciel Retro Review – Love Conquers All

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.

Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.

That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.

Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.

I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
