NiKKoM on 18 December 2012

So i'm on holiday in asia and stopped in Hong Kong for a few days to see some friends.. might even go to the Asia Game Show this weekend.
I already gotten myself Gundam Extreme VS for the PS3 and I'm eyeing a copy of Another Century Episode R..

All the SRW games on PSP and DS are a must if youre a SRPG fan. The new SRW OG 2nd on PS3 is great too.

Also you might want to skip Another Century Episode R, it's garbage compared to the PS2 entries. Though if it's the first ACE you have ever played you might like it. I was going to pick up Gundam VS myself but apparently 'Full Boost' is already out in arcades.

People either play dedicated handheld games on the Computer (l0l) or at home.


neh.. in HK it was pretty popular not long ago to have a DS or PSP and playing it while riding the subway.. I remember being surprised at that the last time i was here but now everyone is either watching TV or playing some mmo on their smartphones..

If you like rhythm games I'd suggest the Project Diva games for PSP.



Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Picked Up a project diva game, another gundam game (unicorn) and ACE:R for cheap.. Don't know which tales of game u should get... There are too many... Does anyone know initial D for the ps3 is any good?

Ow and there is a thin line between spending time at a videogame mall and ending up in the japanese adult video and hentai section., >_>
