sigh i can rant about the release date but i think ive done enough of that already. its a shame these companies don't like April and May. cause after March, there wont be very many games releasing till the summer months.
Don't think it's very smart of them to release it so close to those other big titles, but I'm happy I can play it sooner rather than later. Hopefully it ends up being good. I'm excited for it, but I'm worried the battle system might be a little too overly-complicated for its own good. We'll see though.
Same day releases among other big names is fine for me. Saves some trips to the store and it's not like the price dropped already after 1month so I can just buy it and let it there while I finish the others.
Why the hell would you want to release this 1. a week after one of the most anticipated RPGs this gen and 2. the same day as one of the most anticipated actions titles this gen. The game is going to be completely overshadowed. Its a shame because the game looks great but I just don't see it selling well at all. I'm looking forward to it but its gonna have to wait until after FFXIII.
Actually, I don't mind it's release being this early. That way, when I eventually go to buy it, it might have a price drop. Fine by me. Of course that all depends on reviews.
yea it makes u wonder maybe they should have stayed with SE
IIRC TriAce parted ways with SE (temporarily ATM) because they werent open to new ideas that TriAce had.
Go figure.
I'm kinda glad they parted ways. Personally, after Square and Enix merged, they went down the toilet. I much prefered the pre-merger games from the two.
Seriously, Sega has this nasty habit of taking new IPs/niche games, and for some reason running them up against hugely popular hyped mainstream series entries. Both Yakuza 3 and Resonance are doomed to retail failure coming out one week after FF13, and the same day as GoW3. Their is just no way for them to attract the spontaneous curious purchases they desperately need to make them succeed with that kind of plan. But Sega has never been known for it's market savvy, and the bad thing is, this will give them the excuse they need to not subtitle and bring over Yakuza 4 or Yakuza Kenzan. I love Sega, but it amazes me just how dumb they really are.

I truly couldnt agree more. Seperate they were both fantastic devs and publishers.
