I like both, but I tend to never finish games period, so shorter titles are quickly becoming the preferred choice. I can understand wanting your money's worth, but I still think that it'd be easier on companies if they made games shorter and better constructed, with higher replayability in the literal sense of the term.
I wouldn't want either of these two, personally...I already have them on PS3. And Trine 2 is terrible. Terraria and Sly Cooper, though. Damn. Too bad I own them already.
I'll probably pick this up when it goes down in price. I liked the last Wolfenstien, but it helped that I basically got it free. This one to me sounds like a major step down to me. The graphics aren't as colorful, and the story sounds more melodramatic than a crazy fast-paced shooter deserves. While I like my shooters fast-paced, I quite liked the progression and customization in the previous game, and the new progression system doesn't sound particularly appealing to me. I do want to try it, because fast-paced shooters are a rarity these days, but nothing about this game screams day one in my eyes...
I'll admit, half the reason I like Tokyo Jungle is because I've seen other people play it. It was actually a bit confusing and hard to get into at first. Not everyone's going to want to give it the time.
Most of them look pretty damn cool. In fact, I think Starwahl and Pantheon are the only ones I'm not interested in, though I'm still a bit iffy on Nidhogg and Ironclad Tactics...
Also, guys, good games are good games. Who cares whether they're AAA or Indie? Why do you need Super huge graphics? I thought games were supposed to be played, not looked at.
I cancelled, but only because I can't afford the subscription when I don't get to permanantly own the free games. I mostly got into it for sales, but now I own most of the games I want. I'll wait another year before I get back into it.
I love this series, but I might wait and see if they release a different Warriors game for the Vita, and get this for the PS4 eventually instead. Maybe I'll look into that Toukiden for the Vita...
I like history, but I never cared for the french revolution. This was a franchise that I thought really needed shaking up, and going from pirates to this is nothing but a step back in my mind...
Obviously I have to wait for actual gameplay news, but my excitement has been tempered.
PS3 and PSVita. I'm getting it for the Vita since I got Rainbow Moon for the PS3.
As for this game, it certainly looks better than when I saw it before. I'll keep an eye on it and see where it goes. I will say that I'm liking how they're wording things, making it sound like you're trying to make a game that's a unique take on old mechanics, innovating and revitalizing them instead of just copying them (which is the impression I keep getting from a lot of other Kickstarter RPGs). It sort of makes me think of 3D Dot Game Heroes, which parodied the Zelda franchise, as well as Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, but still took to heart the lessons learned from those games and tried its best to refine the mechanics it was parodying, creating a game that stood out on its own merit.
Hahaha! This is no contest. Who the hell like's Squall, king of the dorks and useless weaponry? Yu, however, is awesome, good with the ladies, and is a versatile fighter with a great Persona ability.
Oh sweet Jesus, thank my lucky stars! Otherwise I would have to play the whole game on Mute. I've had my fill of ear-assaulting crap music from the Devil May Cry series...
Anyways, I'd be worried. It's like Sega cutting prices and giving away Sonic 2 at the same time. It could be big, at least in the UK. If it works there, maybe they'll consider doing something similar elsewhere?
A) They might do it someday and B) They'll only do it if they have a good reason to.
I'm tired of needless sequels. I like Jak as much as the next guy, but we aren't talking about a game that ended on a potential cliffhanger like Sly did.
I'll have to read the review more thoroughly, but I had a feeling some of the additrions would be questionable. I was going to wait for a sale unless it turned out to be stupendous or something, but only because I'm short on cash at the moment.

Re: Review: Mugen Souls Z (PlayStation 3)
The first was terrible, IMO. This one sounds much better, but it still has enough things to keep me from wanting to play it.
Re: This European PS Vita Mega Pack Is Actually Pretty Good Value
The games aren't great, but they're practically free.
Re: Japanese Sales Charts: inFAMOUS Fails to Jump Start PS4 as Wii U Overtakes
Mario Kart 8 comes out soon, so of course Wii U sales will jump a little.

Re: June PlayStation Plus Freebies include PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate and Trine 2 on PS4
I wouldn't want either of these two, personally...I already have them on PS3. And Trine 2 is terrible. Terraria and Sly Cooper, though. Damn. Too bad I own them already.
Re: Out This Week: Watch Dogs, Lemmings Touch, Ace Combat: Infinity
After all this time, people still care about Watch_Dogs?
Anyways, Mind Zero for me.

Re: PS2 Classic Amplitude Could Be Making a Comeback on PS4
Sounds great, hope it gets funded.

Re: Review: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle (PlayStation 3)
Definitely getting this game when I have the change.
Re: Feature: Three Things You Must Know About PS4's Evolved FPS Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
I need to see more. It sounds promising, but so did Black Ops and I couldn't get into that.
Re: PS4's Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Changes Everything on 4th November
Looks like another Michael Bay movie....the best Michael Bay movie he never made. I'll take it.
Re: Sony Just Revealed More PS4 Games Than We Have Time to Talk About

Re: Your Return to Borderlands 2 on PS Vita Will Be a Little Lonelier
Well, that kinda sucks. 2 people is often enough, though.
Re: Would You Like to Change Your PSN Username?
I need this like a whale needs blubber...
...like a platapus needs webbing...
...like an ostrich...
I need it bad.
Re: Talking Point: Are We Starting to Expect Too Much from PlayStation Plus?
I cancelled, but only because I can't afford the subscription when I don't get to permanantly own the free games. I mostly got into it for sales, but now I own most of the games I want. I'll wait another year before I get back into it.
Re: Review: Rayman Legends (PlayStation 4)
Too bad this just went on sale on the Wii U. Guess I'll get it there.
Re: Review: Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition (PlayStation Vita)
I love this series, but I might wait and see if they release a different Warriors game for the Vita, and get this for the PS4 eventually instead. Maybe I'll look into that Toukiden for the Vita...
Re: Review: Awesomenauts Assemble! (PlayStation 4)
I'll probably get this version someday. I never did get the PS3 version and now I have no reason to.
Re: Assassin's Creed: Unity Drops a Heavy Blade on PS4 This Holiday
@artemisthemp Revolution itself was kind of a dark period in French history, IIRC.

Re: Review: Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z (PlayStation 3)
Am I the only one who thought this game was just a terrible idea from the getgo?
Re: inFAMOUS: Second Son's Day One Patch Adds 5 Hours of Extra Content
All sounds good to me.
Re: Review: inFAMOUS: Second Son (PlayStation 4)
Still sounds fantastic to me, and all the additional content they're promising sounds very appealing.
Re: Review: Luftrausers (PlayStation Network)
Seems much better than I expected. Sounds kind of hectic, though. I'll probably get it on my Vita sooner than later.
Re: Review: Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (PlayStation 4)
I knew it was short, but I was expecting more than this. I'll wait until it's on sale.
Re: Review: SteamWorld Dig (PlayStation 4)
I really liked this on the 3DS, definitely worth a look.
Re: Review: Vessel (PlayStation Network)
Sounds good, but I'll wait for the technical issues to be patched out.
Re: Who's the Latest Challenger to Enter the Ring in Ultra Street Fighter IV?
Well, at least it's....sort of new...
Re: Indie Shooter Mercenary Kings Takes Aim at PS4 from 1st April
Oh crap, these guys made Wizorb? I should go get that now.

Hopefully you guys can live up to your ambitions.
Re: PS4's Prettiest Game Doesn't Exactly Push the Platform's Power
This was the same trailer they showed before, but now with Playstation logos. Are they making any progress?
Re: Who Would Win Wednesdays: Yu Narukami vs. Squall Leonhart
Yay, Yu's edged out the Angsty dork!
Re: Review: Magus (PlayStation 3)
@Jaz007 I forgot the names, but it's far from the first one to try...
Re: Review: Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky (PlayStation 3)
It sounds like a step down from the last one, storywise.
Re: Who Would Win Wednesdays: Yu Narukami vs. Squall Leonhart
Hahaha! This is no contest. Who the hell like's Squall, king of the dorks and useless weaponry? Yu, however, is awesome, good with the ladies, and is a versatile fighter with a great Persona ability.
Surely Yu owns this poll.
Looks at Poll results
Re: Japanese Sales Charts: Soul Sacrifice Delta Breathes Life Back into PS Vita
The 63DS? Is that a new model? Are the graphics finally almost as good as the N64?
Re: One Piece: Unlimited World Red Is Sailing West to PS3 and Vita
I was going to ask if this was a better game than the last 3DS game.
Then I saw the Trailer.

Re: Review: Magus (PlayStation 3)
Hey, remember when I said Aksys was run by crazy people? I wasn't kidding.
Re: You've Pushed the PS4's Share Button 100 Million Times
Meanwhile I fully intend to rip that little button off the controller once I get a PS4...

Re: Review: Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (PlayStation 3)
Oh, I forgot this was out already. I'm one of those who liked the first two, so I'll probably pick it up soon.
Re: Sorry, You Won't be Getting an InFAMOUS: Second Son Demo on PS4
A game this big would be too hard to accurately demo anyways.
Re: Dynasty Warriors: Gundam is being Reborn on Western PS3s This Summer
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Talking Point: Should Sony Respond to Microsoft's UK Xbox One Price Cut?
Why isn't this price drop news on PureXbox?
Anyways, I'd be worried. It's like Sega cutting prices and giving away Sonic 2 at the same time. It could be big, at least in the UK. If it works there, maybe they'll consider doing something similar elsewhere?
Re: Review: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 (PlayStation 3)
"Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 falls short of the high bar set by its predecessor"
Gee, they sure have lowered the bar for what counts as a "high bar" these days.
But seriously, the first game was okay, but not more than that. If this game is worse, I won't even go near it.
Re: Naughty Dog Is Willing to Make Jak 4 Given the Right Story
Good to know that:
A) They might do it someday
and
B) They'll only do it if they have a good reason to.
I'm tired of needless sequels. I like Jak as much as the next guy, but we aren't talking about a game that ended on a potential cliffhanger like Sly did.

Re: Borderlands 2 Is the Purple Loot Your PS Vita Deserves
Sounds great, can't wait to grab it!
Re: PS Vita Slim Ventures Stateside in Borderlands 2 Bundle
Borderlands 2 bundle is smart. 8GB Memory card is a nice touch, too. Maybe this won't be a disaster for them?
