The book on which the Grave of the Fireflies film is based has many autobiographical elements. Akiyuki Nosaka, the author, lived through the firebombing of Kobe that was depicted in the film. His adoptive father was killed during the bombing, his two sisters died of illness and malnutrition during the final stages of the war.
It's still a cock-block though. By the time RotTR does come to PS4, its momentum will be long gone and it'll be just another old game competing in a sea of old and new content, with little to benefit the PS4. Even if RotTR never moves a single XOne on its own, the damage has still been done.
Don't forget Shinji Mikami's The Evil Within.
Awesome!
(Looking at ToS Collectors' Edition sitting on top of my game shelf.)
Oh, well. :)
Money-hatting is just as much about cock-blocking the competition as it is about securing exclusive content.
ALttP definitely on the 2-D side.
On the 3-D side, I'm gonna be a contrarian and say Twilight Princess. Honestly, I thought it improved on Ocarina of Time in all but a few ways.
Right now, I'm playing Tales of Destiny and making good progress on it.
I've thought about EDF 2025, and if my personal gaming schedule wasn't so crowded it would be more likely to be bought and played. I like its style, and that's from someone who isn't very into most shooters.
I passed on Sacred 2. Didn't interest me and Diablo-type games aren't my thing. Looks like it's probably safe to give Sacred 3 a miss too.
According to Tom Hall, the game's lead designer, the game did take a lot of inspiration from CT.
The Legend of Heroes will be one of my few forays into PC gaming.... as soon as I replace my wheezing computer. I'll probably go for the GOG version. I always buy GOG over Steam when that choice exists. Also, don't forget, the Second Chapter is supposedly coming in the near future, and I don't think that one has ever been released over here yet.
And I loved Dragon's Crown. Got more playtime last year than any game other than Ni no Kuni.
