EX: "June was a pretty sparse month for gamers. That's not to say there weren't any good games released, but for the most part, everyone's attention was focused almost exclusively on the presentations at E3 2010. July is really more of the same.
Developers and publishers spoiled gamers during the first quarter of 2010, and now there's a noticeable decline in quality games being launched during the summer months. However, July still has more than enough top tier games shipping out to put a severe hurting on your wallet. It's not the onslaught of AAA exclusives like in January and February, but you'd be foolish to skip gaming in July entirely.
Besides, what else are you going to do during the summer? Go outside? Please --quit fooling yourself, bust open your piggy bank and go buy the games on this list."
A new SEGA / Atlus Switch eShop sale started up this week, which includes the lowest prices ever for various games including Persona 3 Portable, Sonic Origins Plus, and more.
Atlus has announced a collaboration with a well-known Japanese distillery to launch the Persona series' very own whiskey, releasing tomorrow.
A video reel showcasing what appears to be work-in-progress footage of a Persona 3 remake and a new Jet Set Radio title surfaced online this morning.

A Persona 3 remake would be incredible. It's one of those games that doesn't really have a "best way" to play because the content is split between versions.
And a new Jet Set Radio is definitely interesting. But I do wonder how the current public would accept it. Both previous titles are extremely arcade in their execution.
What’s your opinion on why arcade games aren’t loved on consoles? Why aren’t play and go games desired? Why are Crazy taxi, Daytona usa, virtua cop type games only reserved for vr now? I’m asking a lot feel free to ignore lol
That is a very good question. I would assume that the price/content ratio would be the large reason. But given that even cheaper games had a hard time selling (see https://www.engadget.com/20... it's probably not the only factor. So it's really hard to pinpoint what exactly might be the problem.
As for why those games thrive in VR. It's also hard to find an explanation, but I assume that is mostly to do with the limitation of the platform as of now. That isn't really suitable for more "console" experiences, human movement, in particular, is a pain in VR, so stationary games or rollercoaster experiences ended up being preferable with translate well to arcade games.
I think there is a market for good arcade style games as demonstrated by the excellent HiFi Rush but I think it's a question of setting realistic targets in respect of sales. A huge chunk of the game playing public weren't born when JetSet Radio came out so I am not sure that the reverence and nostalgia forr the old game exists across the whole of the market. But there will be a big enough market from older gamers such as myself who will snap it up, so if they set realistic sales targets and spend the right amount on development, there is defo scope for it to be a successful project.
here I am still hoping for a sequel where they’re trying to save MC from his fate..
also they never really explain why the shadow operatives which was made specifically to handle anything shadow related never made an appearance when freaking tokyo merged with the other world in P5
I'd love a new JSR but Bomb Rush Cyberfunk looks to be filling that void very nicely. Definitely get both if they release
That short video looks amazing, I love Persona 3, it's one of my favorite games ever. Hopefully this remake will come with the FES expansion included
Looks like they got p3 remake and P6 cooking. In Atlus we trust. One of the final kings of jrpgs.
Not much of a summer drought this yr. Some big titles releasing in July.
Not sure about Arc Rise, but I have to solidly agree w/ the rest of that list.
Every time I see this retard post, I swear to God my stomach churns. Look at all the crap this idiot posts -- all Nintendo and Sony garbage that any real gamer wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole.
What about the REAL good games, like Crackdown 2 or Blacklight: Tango Down or DarkStar One – Broken Alliance --Xbox 360 exclusives that put to shame the garbage that's on this list.
Fail list, fail writer and fail web site. Good riddance.
Well I wouldn't buy ALL of these games...and I wouldn't put all of them in my top ten list. There's a lot of obscure stuff out there that's just as good but will never make it to lists like this. But DEFINITELY looking forward to Star Craft. Oh yeah.
A generic football game and a PSP port? Eh... okay.
Only must-buys on my list are Dragon Quest IX and Starcraft II. Maybe Dragon Quest VI, depending on when it's released... thought it was supposed to be this summer.
