Magna Carta 2 – Prologue Scene

Take a peek on the prologue scene of the much awaited Magna Carta 2 exclusively for the XBOX 360.

[LordMarius]

What is this thrash

[FiftyFourPointTwo]

Its the beta version of an RPG coming to the PS3 just like Vesperia and Eternal Sonata. :D

[LordMarius]

lmao, nice

[Tr10wn]

Well since Japan is the king of RPG there is no doubt that the game is going eventually to the PS3 even MS know that, they didn't bother to put the "Only on Xbox 360" is a timed exclusive that's all. Eternal Sonata was identically the same game on both console Tales of Vesperia was lacking content and that's why they add more on the PS3, and about "Beta Testing" well you called ODST a rip off but is a 7 hours long game not a 1 hours long chapter like Tales of Vesperia guess who is being ripped off? So enjoy waiting for Magna Carta 2 while i finish it.

[memots]

Since when ?

[FiftyFourPointTwo]

Since there were rumors that ME2 is coming to the PS3? :)

[SCThor]

We all know that those japanese games will come eventually to other console.

[RedPawn]

Don't get me wrong, I luv

Johnny Yong Basch:
Kurosaki Ichigo
Vasch Stampede

Michele Ruff:
Kuchiki Rukia
Crimson Viper

but GD this games presentation is attrocius, and people talk about FF XII.

[ShiftyLookingCow]

wtf even the preview image is super creepy. I think we can have more fun with Japanese men dressed as KON girls than with this game.

[wanderofys]

This looks right up my ally. It doesn't look visually amazing or anything, but the characters seem pretty good and the presentation doesn't seem bad.

I could be wrong, though. The first one sucked pretty bad.

Don't expect much more from part 2, the reviews so far indicate the same problem as the first one, looks good, plays bad

[Tony P]

They most important thing about MC2 is combat. They've greatly improved the main thing that made MC unbearable for a lot of people.

But besides that, I get the impression that it's a pretty formulaic JPRG despite its Korean roots. Most of the criticisms centre around themes and elements common to most JRPGs. So if you're one of those that doesn't have a problem with the standard JRPG formula, you probably won't have a problem here.

If you expect this game to be a wild evolution of the genre, better to look elsewhere.

[sakura2009]

this is going to be a good game. too bad its not going to do good in sales because microsoft fanboys only buy shooters and violent video games

[Foxgod]

Arent rpg's violent as well?
I have yet to encounter an rpg that doesnt involve killing.

Btw, Fable, Mass effect 2, Fallout 3, Forza series, Guitar hero, And even Viva pinata sold more then a million copies.

So what where you saying again about 360 fans only buy shooters?

[sakura2009]

i mean violent games like grand theft auto, call of duty and gears of war. and grand theft auto, gears of war, halo, and call of duty sold over 5 million copys on the xbox 360. more than the game u listed. im pretty much right about my statement

[GameOn]

Yeah because every xbox owner is a MS fanboy. why don't you just stick to the open zone.

[ceedubya9]

And what do you think PS3 owners are buying? The violent shooter type games and multiplats are the highest sellers on the PS3. RPGs aren't lighting it up on that console either.

[Bodyboarder_VGamer]

Tales of Vesperia sold in one day what the X360 sold in Japan since its release last year. Now just wait for Tales of Vesperia PS3 to be released worldwide to widen the total sales' gap.

[sakura2009]

ps3 owners just dont buy shooters. they buy other game as well. little big planet a platformer sold over 1 million copies, metal gear solid 4 a stealth game that sold over 2 million, killzone 2, a shooter that sold 1 million copies. ps3 owners buys different type of games. they delude themselves to stealth, action/adventure shooters, rpg, platforming. ps3 owners likes to play all genre. anyway lets go back on topic and dicussed how magna carta 2 is gonna kick ass

[Tony P]

@sakura: I understand what you're trying to say, but you flubbed the line.

I think you're trying to say PS3 has a bigger audience for JRPGs and 360 has a bigger audience for shooters.

But 360 owners (who you insultingly describe as "microsoft fanboys") don't buy only shooters.

[YoungKingDoran]

didnt they get the memo? all rpgs are on ps3 now

[ZombieAutopsy]

I didnt realize this was an xbox exclusive (thought it wasnt because their was a MC on ps2). I have a feeling its gonna do really bad sales wise though like most rpgs on the 360, but if its any good i'll prolly pick it up this gen is really lacking a huge library of RPG's...i miss last gen it wasnt all shooters (even though i love shooters im getting sick of them).

[Knightofelemia]

I'll pick up this game to add to my RPG library it does look promising I finished the 1st Magna Carta 2 yrs ago so this game should be great. And if it is announced Magna Carta 2 will be a timmed exclusive for the 360 I'll pick up the PS3 version aswell. I need something to keep me busy for a bit till White Knight arrives and whenever Square decides to release FF13. I do think thoe releasing the game a day after Uncharted 2 arrives and Brutal Legends arrive will hurt the sales of this game but its a purchase for me anyways cause I need an RPG fix.

[LONEWOLF231]

Seriously, the word exclusive and xbox 360 dont mix that well.
There has yet to be a Dev, well besides EPIC that truly sticks to the words EXCLUSIVE and unlike Sonys Developers, the so called EXCLUSIVE term on 360 games are just that a meaning less word that just grants those developers Millions from MS so that they can in turn use those millions to better and release the game on Sony consoles........MS has to be the richest most dumbest company in Human history.If i were them id stop wasting my time on 3rd party backstabbing devs and concentrate on helping my own first party developers to come up with a spectacular game. I know they can since MS has high caliber developers under its belt they just dont know how to properly use them.

[1nOnly]

You sure talk like you've got some inside info on MS. And calling them dumb is just calling those supporting their brands dumb because they're rich because of us buying they're products. And like Sony did a great job promoting the PS3 or their AAA titles? much can be called "dumb" over there too.

But I cant say that MS has been making some good decisions in the gaming department but i'm all for these timed exclusive because it only means that games are released earlier instead of waiting for the time it takes to port games, because having both systems it just makes me buy the game thats released first instead of waiting.
But IMHO MS should stop supporting the jrpg genre (or in this case korean rpg) because they just are not selling well, and its a waste of money that could be supporting other big titles. The only good move they've done when it comes to jrpg's is having FFXIII ported to the 360 AND released at the same time (outside japan). I'd rather see them investing in those kinda deals than what they've been doing lately.

[Lavalamp]

This is one of those games that I give the benefit of the doubt to and hope it's a decent title. I don't know if I can fit this game into my already tight budget since there are a ton of better titles soon to be released but I'll find some way to get my hands on it. Even if I have to rent it, at least I'll have gotten a chance to play it.

[dkblackhawk]

Is magnacarta one word or two words? Every single site is different...

EDIT: It is one word, thought so.

[Berserk1]

I HOP YOU ENJOY PAYING $60 FOR BETA VERSION while WE BUY THE FULL VERSION LOL.

[Tr10wn]

Like i said why would i spend $60 "Again" for a copy of the game or a 1 hour chapter like Tales of vesperia? Enjoy paying full price for a DLC LOL. Bioshock you paid 60 for a 1 years old game and what you get? a trailer for bioshock at the end? eternal sonata is the same game so w/e tales of vesperia they add a new pirate girl and a chapter so the game has 1 hour of additional gameplay, you guys really need to find some info about whats a beta poor kids don't know what timed exclusive mean.. lol

[NicCageMYHero]

When you play up the fact that your underdressed female character is only 15, you are going to have problems around the world. Why can't they make 21-30 year old females in JRPGs?

[Shinro]

the target audience is around that age.

it's obviously not for you old people.

[oNIXo]

I'll just get it when it comes out on PS3. I don't want to take part in the beta this time.

[FACTUAL evidence]

too bad ps3 only owners can't play this....wait! Same thing was said about star ocean 4!
