Oh, 'sup Misk, good to see you hanging around. Yeah, I'm more than a little annoyed that there hasn't been any more info on that thing since it was announced 6 months ago. Kind of like when AC5 was first annou- Oh dammit.

God damn, do I ever feel you on that one.

I doubt it. We hardly even get soundtracks for our own large franchises.

Could you wait anther month? Mechadamashii says it's set for sometime in April. Apparently Europe is getting it sooner than the US, which is unusual. Source

I'm thinking about it, but I'm not sure. A friend of mine got the JP version for christmas, and Relius seems pretty cool, but aside from that last time I haven't played BB in ages. I don't want to buy an extension for a game I don't really play much anymore.

Well, there is a way to get it. http://img860.imageshack.us/img860/645/xa2593.jpg

I'm sure you're right, I never got to play much of MoA. I was talking more about the AA encounter with 9B.

Not too much of a problem. If they still work, there should tutorials online for how to get a JP PSN account. Navigating the JP PSN store to find the demo section is going to be the tricky part, however.

Oh man, it's been forever. I don't remember what I used when I beat it for the first time, but after that I found that an armored MW with the SAWA could pretty consistently do the trick.

A bit late, as it's been out for a while and I haven't stopped by lately, but the game is out and I absolutely love it. Mature's infinite and Raidens dropkick shenanigans have been removed and K' got a slight overal damage reduction, making the game far more balanced than it was before. The netcode works well enough locally but has trouble in matches outside of the area, something Atlus is hard at work fixing. Classic Iori is great and NESTS Kyo and Mr. Karate both look like they're going to be a lot of fun too when they're released. This is certainly one of my favorite fighting games ever. Good job SNK and ATLUS. Duo Lon 4 life, yo.

Yeah, Ninebreaker was great from a multiplayer standpoint, but players who may not have friends who like AC to play with won't find the single player very fulfilling. Also, I heard that ACV is planned to have a demo in the JP PSN sometime. Can anyone confirm, possibly with an estimated date?

Not from previous games, no. But you'll get a token each time you prestige in MW3. But it won't matter if you've prestiged one or ten times in MW2, you'll get one token regardless. At least that's what I've read.

Token(s) right off the bat. When you prestige in MW3 instead of just getting a bonus/bonuses, you get a token to put toward one of several bonuses. You get a token right away (I think) for each previous CoD game you've prestiged in, so I guess that makes 4 possible.

The whole Prestige Tokens thing they're doing seems pretty interesting. I like how they'll give you tokens for prestiging in older games too. I'm really debating on if I want to use one of my tokens on unlocking the MSR right off the bat, 'cause most of the other weapons I want (MP5, L118A, M16) I think are unlocked right away or really early. The MSR looks gorgeous, and seems like it may be my sniper rifle of choice. But I don't want to spend a token and end up not caring for it.

Well ACV has something like genbusting. When your energy bottoms out it has to fill to a certain point before it can be used again. So it's not going to be as completely crippling as it was in older games but you'll certainly be in more trouble than in fA. Unless you were already aware of that and that's what you were talking about.

Played the beta, didn't much care for it for whatever reason. Guess I'll probably end up getting MW3 after all, despite thinking this game would sway me.

Likewise with the AUG. Don't take away my favorite gun, AR or LMG I don't care. Give me my fucking AUG.

God I hope stabilizers don't return. They may have been neat aesthetically but they were a terrible over-complication when it came to designing and building. If they bring them back in the form of "ornaments" and they have nothing to do with weight-distribution, then that's fine. But AC is complex enough when it comes to building, no need to tack on something extra like that.

Cool album. I'll be getting it for sure, I especially liked the new remix for Artificial Sky.

Just hoping this doesn't end up being yet another show too good for CN to know what to do with.

Wow, the starter blade is that strong? From the one screenshot showing the blade it looked a lot smaller than that, and what of the chainsaw blades?

FROM's facebook updated with a few of those new pictures. Sadly the FINGERS are confirmed to be part of that massive red thing from the trailer, so there's still no sign that it'll be an AC part. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.2...3538&type=1

Ok, I think that red mech in the pictures with the FINGER, is that huge thing we saw destroying the city in one of the early videos. So I don't know if the FINGER is actually obtainable in the game.
