In terms of quantity, April has fewer video games releasing than both March and February. What it lacks in quantity though, it more than makes up for in quality. Here are 7 games to look forward to next month.

Nice, didn't know that Prototype 2 was releasing in April. I thought that game was way down the road, sometime in the fall. Good looking out, Trend.

TrendyGamers4424d ago

No worries. Any other games on the list you're waiting for?

Kahvipannu4424d ago

Yeah, me neither. I really liked the first one, tought I wanted to like it more than I actually ended liking it. It has some huge problems, but the good things overweighted the bad ones. I'm very eager to see how the second one turns out.

TrendyGamers4424d ago (Edited 4424d ago )

From what I've seen, it looks pretty good.

Can't wait for the WItcher 2, got it for free from my boss but sadly my computer couldn't run it without it being choppy so I couldn't play through

Witcher 2 & Prototype 2 , never played the first Prototype but def want the second one

Kahvipannu4423d ago

First Prototype was pretty good, they nailed many things right. The city was cool, it was grim and had nice feeling in theme, special powers and combat was great, lots of things happening in the screen, moving in city was enjoyable too, and it really felt that there was ongoing crisis/war going on. This carried the game a lot.

There were a lot of side-missions etc, but the game was a bit repetive, and frustrating sometimes. I would call it the same kind of case AC1 was, they had the engine, the idea, but the execution falled a bit short, and if they can improve all the small things from there like AC2 did, it will be awesome game.

W2 I have not played yet, but I played first one thru on PC, and it's easilly one of the best RPG's that are out there. I haven't yet picked it up since I know it will take a long time to finish, but I'm pretty sure it will be as amazing as first one was.

GamePodunk4424d ago

I'm really looking forward to Xenoblade Chronicles myself but yeah, this April there are definitely some good titles coming out. It'll be great for 360 owners to finally experience The Witcher 2.

BootHammer4424d ago

DMC HD collection, Witcher 2 and Walking Dead please ;) Three must haves for me...

Best JRPG series of the last 5 years imo

repsahj221d ago

I agree 100%. My top JRPG so far, together with Baldurs Gate 3 and FF16.

autobotdan221d ago (Edited 221d ago )

There is no together at the top. There is only one top jrpg series. Xenoblade Chronicles series is alone at the top

raWfodog221d ago (Edited 221d ago )

I like the Xenoblades series but my ‘top’ series would be either the Trails series or Persona series. Just too many good games for me to just pick one series though, so I say play them all lol.

autobotdan221d ago

You are hereby excommunicated the church of Xenoblade Chronocology

CappyBlack221d ago

I'm not huge into JRPGs, but my favorite is easily the Persona series. It's all opinion though. Xenoblade is a great series.

repsahj221d ago

XC4 for Switch 2 for the win!! So excited!

phoenixwing221d ago

Tetsuya Takahashi Wants The Next Xenoblade To Be Vastly Different From Previous Games

Tetsuya Takahashi has revealed his plan to make the next Xenoblade vastly different from previous games.

GotGame818252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

I liked the Xenoblade X formula. It takes awhile, but opening up Mechs was amazing. Especially once you can fly them, and use them in battle. You have to put some time into the game to do it, but it's worth it!

Also, the graphics were more realistic than the other games. Still looks good today, just a lot more pop-in than is acceptable today, hell even too much for back then. It wasn't game breaking though.

gleepot221d ago

Xenoblade 1-3 and X are so great. That said, I'm ready for them to do a big change up.
