Trendy Gamers: With April fast approaching, we thought it would be fun to predict what the top 5 selling new release games of the month will be. We’ll then compare our list to the NPD rankings when they release in the beginning of May to see if we were right.
Xenoblade Chronicles composer Kenji Hiramatsu reflects on his work and feels that it's "time for a fresh start."
There is no together at the top. There is only one top jrpg series. Xenoblade Chronicles series is alone at the top
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.
I'm not huge into JRPGs, but my favorite is easily the Persona series. It's all opinion though. Xenoblade is a great series.
Tetsuya Takahashi has revealed his plan to make the next Xenoblade vastly different from previous games.
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.
Xenoblade 1-3 and X are so great. That said, I'm ready for them to do a big change up.
Kinect Star Wars, a groundbreaking game released in April 2012 for the Xbox 360, utilized the Kinect motion-sensing peripheral to plunge players into the heart of the Star Wars universe.
One of the worst things to happen to Star Wars was it being exclusive to Kinect when PS Move could have been a better version because of "buttons" per Kevin with better tracking. And the controller looking like a light saber hilt. Or, had an actual light saber game similar to the dojo in Vader Immortal.
But the miming lies on the Microsoft E3 stage was icing on the cake of this garage. Wasn't even live gameplay. Just bad acting. Nothing ground breaking about this travesty.
I really hope the prediction about Xenoblade Chronicles is right; we need Nintendo to bring over more games like it, and hopefully if it does well, it'll help make a case for the new Fire Emblem game coming to North America.
Also, I can see Kinect Star Wars selling really well; I'm curious to see how the casual audience responds to it.
The Witcher 2 on 360 should move huge units soon as released
1. Kinect Star Wars (Xbox 360 – April 3rd)
Anticipation is high for this game. It has been in the top 10 in pre-orders since the beginning of the year and Kinect owners looking for a meatier experience will no doubt pick this game up. Couple that with the fact that they are releasing an exclusive Kinect console bundle with the game, with heavy advertising, and you have a game that will sell the most in April.
WWWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAA AAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Come on people, buy the Witcher 2! Do you like Dragon Age or hell, even Fable?! Then BUY this game!
