..at work, £19.99 new with discount, got it for £10.

had it a week and havent played it yet! i really should, anyway i see a LOT of people who seem to be big fans of the game, almost trying to promote it but i heard that they stopped making it? i know theres DLC coming out but it only sold around 33,000 copies or something.

anyway...just your thoughts :)

thanks

It's one of my favourite PS3 games. I really can't believe how little attention is paid to it.

None of the Gamestop stores around where I live in New Jersey have the game in stock any more. It looks like the $29.99 price point really did a good job driving sales.

I've played the first 3 missions and so far I like the game very much. It is very unique and is a valued addition to my collection.

alright mate calm down :P il buy it when i get home from work ok! but seeing as EVERY post here is more than positive suggests that what little copies sold really had an infact on the players, not 1 copy has been traded in, and i work for a major game retailer (part time) says a lot :)

When I played the demo, I knew it was gonna be a hidden gem. It's such a brutally excellent game. Get it if you can. I went 2 hours away to get it, which I never do.

I bought it last week at the GameDays sale at GameStop for half off. Just started playing it today and I must say, it was worth every penny. It's (so far) a flawless game. Well, my one complaint is that you can't pause, but it's not a huge deal since there are a few sections where you can just leave it alone and nothing will happen.

I'm at chapter 9 on Valkyria and so far I've been mixed about the game, it has a great & detailed story, good looks, but some of the game missions just seem too linear, basically you would need to do a specific routine to get the job done and so far the difficulty is all over the place, like all of a sudden the fight with the Batymos(?) was really difficult & long, until you learn the right steps, I'm going to play it all the way mainly because it has a great story.

yeah, it was the Batymos... Maximillian's behemoth tank... was kinda hard for the early part of the game... it required a lot of strategy and trial and error... quite frustrating.. but thanks to NGS, it got my frustration level up.

I actually beat it on my first try. I have no idea how, but I did it. It took me 19 turns :lol::lol: but the behemoth tank wasn't moving until I realized my tank was in the way... it moved as soon as I moved my tank. I had figured out what to do in terms of taking it down before they even told me, but of course I spent wasted a couple turns trying to do it until I realized I couldn't yet. It was certainly one of the more "epic" missions in the game. For me at least.

But wait, if your on the way, the Batymos will use his giant front cannon and blow you up, I believe it's an instant death, how on earth you managed to beat it on the 1st try, without trial and error, specially when Silvaria(?) comes to help...

I just picked the game up myself. It was in the game day half off sale bin at my local Gamestop. I must say that I'm loving it so far. The game mechanics are so refreshing.

Yes.

Yes you do.

On the advice of a forum topic I asked, it sounded super cool and badass so I got it.

I was not dissapointed and I don't usually play RTS that much.

I wouldn't really call it an RTS. More like a TBS, with real time elements.

I love VC. I just bought the two side mission packs last night, and i'm really excited about them and just the fact that I'm helping to send the message to Sega that there are fans over here in N America. I'm still frustrated though that this game had no real love or support in N Am or Europe. It's really frustrating to see quality games not get any recognition or respect, while incredibly average, and over-rated games become multi-platinum titles. If you have it, don't forget to get any one or all of the latest DLC packs!!

5FingersOfDeath

I honestly have no idea. I don't really remember the specifics of the battle. Something was in the way, and I think it was my tank. The radiator obviously wasn't facing the tank otherwise it would have instant killed me. I think I had my tank in front and then an engineer right behind the tank to heal it everytime it took damage. I just kept healing my tank and waited for the big tank to move before I realized perhaps I should move my tank. Perhaps it was too close to the tank to avoid the front cannon? I really wish I could remember the exact details. As for Selvaria, my people were just positioned well when she came. I remember hitting her with mortars for some reason. She killed a couple of my people, but I always had one lancer to do damage to the behemoth tank.

I'm telling you, I beat it on the first try. It took me 19 turns, so obviously it was luck. D-rank for the win!

Heh, I beat that mission on my first try too :P. 18 turns I think it took me. The tricky part is getting the damn tank to move, sometimes it'll just stay there for ages while I'm forced to waste turns doing bugger all.
