XSEED will be releasing Akiba's Trip 2 in North America for PS3 and PS Vita as Akiba's Trip: Undead and Undressed this summer in both physical and digital formats.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

I managed to make a Japanese PSN account for once, so if anyone has made one I was hoping if you would recommend the games available on there (and the demo's if possible) and at somepoint in the future I would get a PSN Points card and use it to get those games if they interest me. I've downloaded demos of Yakuza Ishin and Hatsune Miku Project Diva F 2 (PS3) so far, and I noticed tons of PS1 games on the service. I do have plans on getting a Vita in the summer so feel free to mention Vita versions.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

Random question: I've been thinking about buying J-Stars Victory Vs., but I'm kind of torn between what console. I tend to use my Vita more than my PS3, so I was thinking of going that route, but there's one thing that could make me go the other way. I have an EU PSN account tied to my Vita - would I be able to access the online multiplayer using my EU PSN account or would I be locked out unless I use my Japanese one? I know DLC is locked to region, but what about multiplayer?

If I'd be locked out, I'll probably go for the PS3 version.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

Ah....so then comes the question of how to find out if a game uses an online pass or not.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

If you're wondering whether J-Stars has an online pass I can assure you that it doesn't (my copy is Japanese with the CERO logo and all), however I haven't tried the online yet.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

Cool! Is there any chance you could test out the online? Because if it is indeed locked, I'll just get in PS3 and swap to my JP PSN ID when I want to go online. I don't own that many Vita games (okay....3 games) and only one of them has an online pass (LittleBigPlanet). What is the point in online passes anyway?

...and then I just realised that Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD is only £23. Urgh...there are so many games I want to buy now that Comic Con has passed....uggguuuuu. I need like, the money from a job but the spare time from not having a job to play the games I buy.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

I'll try the online once my internet becomes stable, it's been going off and on every now and then (in preparation for next year's super fast broadband). I recall the American anime fans (like Fornever World) playing J Stars online like normal, I presume we can play against the Japanese owners who own the game (just a theory).

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

I have no idea where to put these type of news in this area so I figured I'll put it here. NISA Europe is bringing Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed to the PAL regions on PlayStation 3 and Vita on October 10th. I sure hope the PEGI doesn't do any harm (an 16/18 would be fine anyway).

Here's the trailer Sony put out months back:



Meanwhile in Japan (as it's known as Akiba's Trip 2 since the first game was on PSP which wasn't localised outside the country) you can dress up in a Swimsuit or play as Super Sonico in the PS4 version.

 

Re: Official Playstation 3 Thread(PSN stuff, discussion..etc

I'm feeling like something new and I've realised that I've never played an online game. Would anyone recommend Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn?
