Valkyria Chronicles series could return to PS3

Examiner: Valkyria Chronicles is one of the best exclusive games on the Playstation 3. For that reason, many fans were upset to learn that Valkyria Chronicles II is only coming to the PSP. Sega isn't completely shutting down the door to another Valkyria Chronicles game for the Playstation 3 just yet, however.

I think VC II has a much better chance of selling more then VC because first off the install base for the PSP is larger and 2nd the game has gotten alot of press because or various reasons like how it's a incredible exclusive title and how the first one was so under rated. Also the anime should help quite a bit to drum up some sales.

Everyone here should be buying a copy if only to ensure the series continues.

i agree. i'd buy it a lot faster than i did the first game if there's another one coming out on ps3. i caught up with the anime today. not as good as the game, but still enjoyable.

Well, I'll do my part in it then. Day 1.

I was also one of the few who actually bought VC 1 as soon as it came out.

I picked up Valkyria Chronicles a couple nights ago at Walmart for $20! I've read nothing but good things about this game and once I get my platinum in inFamous I'll see what the fuss is about. Come on, help support SEGA for making what many consider one of the best RPGs of this generation so they will feel more inclined to add trophies and consider a sequel for the PS3.

Yea, diffidently. 2010 is going to be a great year for gaming once again. Now it would be awesome if Yakuza 4 is coming also.

Completely agreed here, with both Yakuza and this information. I have a feeling, NA/EU sales for Yakuza 3 will be the deciding factor in if they continue localization for the series. It would also be very cool to see a PSP Yakuza. I could really get behind that.

Moving the series to PSP (temporarily I hope) was the absolute best move sega could make. They are almost guaranteed solid sales in Japan at least, they are crazy about handhelds and are crazy for RPGs. The other really smart thing about it is that it lets people "miss" the series on PS3 and gives it more hype and anticipation, which is something the series could use.

Marketing is something Sega really needs for the next one on PS3, could still turn into something big, you never know.

you are a very educated person

yeah, i agree, it can open the franchise to a bigger install base
which might help the PS3 version or future versions

I really would love to have VC back on the PS3. I will still get VC2 on PSP hopefully it has some sort of special connectivity with PS3 like being able to bring in some your recruits over to the PSP.

I believe someday Sega and Sony could work out a way to port VC2 to the PS3. We could only hope.

Games that explore different military arms like the navy and airforce.

8 - Even though I would love to see a Valkyria Chronicles sequel on ps3
Putting it on the psp was the best move. There are twice as many psp's out there than playstation 3's. Also they can make a great looking game on the psp for a fraction of the cost which means they will see greater profit margins than they would with ps3. I am just happy that the series is continuing at all because there are a lot of instances where good games never seem to get sequels. Skies of arcadia dreamcast/gamecube and panzer dragoon orta xbox are two of sega's titles I wish they would revisit again.

I would LOVE to see another Panzer Dragoon. However it's very unlikely at least for the time being. Orta in and of it self was a revisit to a long forgotten series and despite a crap load of good reviews and critical acclaim the game just never took off for some reason.

Orta is still a incredibly beautiful game now. It makes me wonder what Sega could do with the series with this gens power.

Orta was a rehash. If anything, there needs to be a second PD Saga.

ps360owner09 - 94 days 4 hours ago
8.3 - Yeah I think I remember reading an article in egm that said that pd saga was the best in the series
But I never owned a sega saturn so I couldn't play any of panzer dragoons on that system and I didn't know to what extent panzer dragoon orta is related to the one's on the saturn if at all.

I've owned every PD title including Orta, which was the first I got rid of.

Still sorry I sold Saga when I finally did. It would be perfect for an open world squeal.

Saga and the other Panzer Dragoon games cannot really be compared. The original Panzer as well as it's sequel were on rails shooters as was Orta while Saga was a RPG. Being a RPG Saga was able to cater to that market and aside from that the game itself was just incredible.

That said comparing Saga with the other games in the series is pointless. It didn't really sell well in the US(Granted it didn't even have many copies released here) and Sega never bothered revisiting a Saga like Panzer game instead opting to making another game that was similar to the original and Zwei.

This is the first time i've heard the sequal wont be on PS3 and I have the following to say.

"To every PS3 owner who does not have Valkyria Chronicals, you are a disappointment. This is probably the best RPG this gen and you ignored it. Now I miss the sequal. I hate you."

Wont get it on psp, as I dont believe the graphics or gameplay will do justice to the original. Which i am still to finish.

ALL I want is for SEGA to bring Virtua Fighter 5: R to home consoles (especially the PS3). Im getting tired of sending countless emails to SEGA. They are a very ignorant Game company that completely DO NOT UNDERSTAND their fans.
