Nier Gestalt Only Version Coming West

Will be on both Xbox 360 and PS3, younger protagonist in Replicant meant to appeal to Japanese audiences.

I don't think this game is going to sell well at all, there's like literally no hype.

Kurisu5248d ago

Hmm, I'm afraid I will have to take White Knights Chronicles, Star Ocean The Last Hope International, Heavy Rain, FFXIII, Resonance of Fate, God of War III...etc etc all before I get this game. Maybe the PS4 will have backwards compatibility... :p

Myst5248d ago

Yeah from the looks of it, it seems like a game that is worth a rental.

Tony P5248d ago

I thought they already made it abundantly clear that Replicant wasn't leaving Japan. *shrug*

Anyway I've only seen the one trailer and it's utterly unimpressive.

at least we don't get that transexual in the NA version.

Hey SE, why not just give the game an option to CHOSE which character to use....say....IN ONE SINGLE GAME?!

Giving Japan an extra version, which turns out to be exactly the same, will just stir nothing but confusion to most people. On top of that, this game has already flown under most people's radars, and this move won't help much either.

I think this game will be DOA with GOWIII, Bayonetta, Dante's Inferno all coming out next year.

Ive been playing the game and its really an amazing game. I detract myself as the PS3 demo is not a representation of the game. I judged it by a demo (the same mistake COD fans make with KILLZONE 2 demo) and the demo is shy from what the game really is. A must buy from me when it arrives.

Also all of you know I consider myself a gamer as I had the mayor consoles. This said I have always favored the PS3 over the 360. The mayority of MP games comparisons on sites like Lens of Truth are really way off as I experienced those game myself and find that they looked mostly the same on both the 360 and PS3. That is not the case with BAYONETTA. Sega really did a rush port on the PS3. The game looks amazing on the 360 and WAYY!!!! better than the PS3 version. The game doesnt compete with the likes of GOW DEMO but it really is a beast graphycally. Its funny and cheesy as hell...but I really like it. The color, textures, shadows and ligthning are incredible better on the 360. Im in the same stage of the PS3 demo and I compared myself both. SEGA really did a rush job and they are going to be punished by PS3 only gamers. Their bad because they miss an incredible fresh game.

Im just in the opening levels and I really loves all the Sega past games references. An example is when Enzo is driving a red Cadillac trough the city and Bayonetta is complaining and slap him. LOL!! It looks like an OUTRUN taken part. Why? Because the Cadillac is playing SPLAH WAVE!!!!!

On Topic : I DONT LIKE NIER BOTH OF THEM!

PEACE AND GAMING!!!

Wow, this game brings back memories. I still have the original game (April 2010), however, the graphics while acceptable although they do have a washed-out appearance are IMHO not nearly as good as many earlier PS3 games (for example Demon Souls - Feb 2009 and Final Fantasy 13 - Dec 2009).

Note: I am only comparing graphics, not gameplay. NieR gameplay was IMO acceptable.

Ugh, hopefully this comes to more cities.

KeenBean3451665d ago

I'd love to go to the one in London, this sounds incredible

staticall1665d ago

No Nami Nakagawa? So no «Possessed by a Disease»? Still wish they would add more cities and countries.
