Ew. Black Rock Shooter needs to die out. It's so sad that crap like that is spawning so much merchandise.

 

Although, I'm still interested whatever they'll put out. They definitely have the ability to make some very nifty games.

I read the premise for Black Rock Shooter and it sounded completely stupid.

I was very hyped for it and watched it the day it released. Putting it lightly, I was extremely underwhelmed. The art and animation was fantastic and it did have some superb action. It just had some ridiculous characters and some horrendous plot included as well.

After watching the trailer, it has some great talent working on it. It may be good.

Tale of the Last Promise looks very generic but at the same time, very promising. I like how when somebody dies in that game, they stay dead and the storyline ends up being effected by it. It's also good to hear that the producer of the game worked on the very well loved Shin Megami Tensei series. Also, in the trailer, there was a sex scene which indicates that it will be very mature as well. Imageepoch even comfirmed that it will come to the states. I'm really looking forward to it.
