I've got nothing to say about this game, except every time I see the title it reminds me of a hair rock song my friend made up in the 6th grade.

"Dyin' of radioactive ooze in the X-Zone!"

I guess you had to be there.

It's on my "To Buy" list. I liked the demo...I think North America is getting another one on Thursday.

@kriswright

The title reminds me of the best video game review to ever grace this website.

I'd think about getting it on the Wii U. As it stands..pass. Ah well, Grant will just have to soak up the T&A for me.

@kriswright

Is the X-Zone the same place as the Negative World?

@ludist210

It was funnier when I could actually give it a 10/10. But I suppose that did make a mockery of everything.

@Mr_Mustache

Maybe. It depends on if we're all dying of radioactive ooze in here, I guess.

Oh, and I didn't mention this, but I pronounce X-EMN using the 'xe' dipthong you get from the word 'xenophobe'.

So, that's right, it roughly rhymes with "semen".

The More You Know.

HAHA!!

@Mr_Mustache

Thanks. I've sorta wondered if I should have posted that at all, and now you've brought it into a second thread - one that's going to be relevant for the next few weeks. Thanks, buddy!

I may get this game eventually. Not now though. Still haven't even played Fire Emblem yet.

This game is absolutely on my "someday" list. I feel bad for the devs/pubs because I feel like no one is going to buy it at launch and they are gonna think it's a terrible failure. And then 6-10 months from now everyone's gonna buy it but it will be too late by then... the failure label will already be ingrained in the business and media worlds.

Of course, I played the demo and..... meh.... I just don't know who these people are or what games they're from! But, I'm excited to find out one day!!

@NinSage

Well... I... bought it... today. Should I be ashamed of myself?

*runs out of thread*

@VofEscaflowne

What? NO! You should be extremely proud! I wish I (and everyone) could afford to support cool 3rd party titles like this one at launch!

@NinSage

Get a jerrrrrrrrrrrrb!

@Mr_Mustache

I have several! But adjunct college professor and freelance web designer/developers make peanuts.

... and I can't pay for my video games in peanuts.

I spoiled them...twice. Bought the limited edition collector's edition, and downloaded the one I'm actually going to play. I plan on selling the collector's edition for 99.00, which means I will be paid 25.00 to play the title. Eventually.

@Mr_Mustache

Too bad they didn't make a version of this for Wii U. Lord knows that system needs good games on it. Although? Speaking of cross-over games, when's that Fire Emblem/Shin Megami Tensei game for Wii U supposed to come out? The one Iwata showed in that Nintendo Direct back in...January, I think?

@kriswright

I don't want to spoil the reference, but...the pronunciation of "Project X Zone" is actually "Project CROSS Zone." .....not sure if your friend from sixth grade was singing about dying from ooze in the "EX-ZONE" or the "CROSS ZONE."

This game is so much better than the demo lets on. Just a heads-up in case anyone got put off by the demo they release a couple of weeks ago. The full game is the real experience, and is better for it. Hopefully the new demo (coming tomorrow?) can do a better job of "selling" the game.

@GameDadGrant

I liked the first demo. I'm just broke right now.

Put in more time in it to day and I'm loving this a lot more. I was expecting something more serious in tone but it's very hilarious at times. It made me laugh so much a few times... but I seriously don't know if it's intentionally being dirty or not. Whatever it's doing, I'm loving it I had to stop at a line and look at it several times and was just shaking my head and laughing. Incredible music too!

I've (finally) finished up Fire Emblem: Awakening, so my "plate" is clear once again. I'm going to tackle this game next. Wish me luck!

Finished the game a few weeks back. It's a lot of fun, but a crapton of battles to go through. All the character interactions are quite fun to read, so I liked mixing up my teams a lot.

I tried both demos, found it too simplistic and boring, and didn't know who almost anyone was. Pass.
