Ryouiki Zero and MBA Complete Form

November 6, 2009

So as of the 27th of October (yeah, last week) Fly Systems has transferred development works for Magical Battle Arena to a new circle called Ryouiki Zero. Whether this new circle is a direct subsidiary to Fly-Systems, a totally different group, or Fly-Systems themselves disguised under another name is not known. It sure does seem to have close affiliations to Souwer Cherry and Pandadanpa though; both are close partners with Fly-Systems. In that light, guess says Ryouiki Zero at the very least aren’t strangers to Fly-Systems.

Along with the transfer, news for the next major release of Magical Battle Arena were also spilled, named Magical Battle Arena Complete Form. This one sounds more like a bundled release of Magical Battle Arena with Lyrical Pack along with all the patches and the 5 extra download characters included rather than being a major expansion release, but alas it wasn’t without any updates at all. It is revealed that Complete Form will include one new character; StrikerS Fate. Aside from that, it also includes several new moves for the returning characters and uses a new network system for its multiplayer mode. No further words about whether the character list is finalized or would there be more new characters to expect other then the non-loli Fate.

Here are some images of the grown Fate T. Harlaown in MBA Complete Form.

Magical Battle Arena Complete Form is scheduled for this coming Winter Comiket in December.

The Grand PSP Despair

November 4, 2009

You will feel it when, with you, you have

despair-mgs

Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker beta trial

despair-phantasy2

Phantasy Star Portable 2 special beta trial

despair-valkyria2

Valkyria Chronicles 2 trial

and upon your attempt to savour the goodness, you run into

despair-filter

THIS BLOODY SPOILSPORT

and upon some (noobish) attempt to hack things (like param.sfo and stuff) into working order, you still get

despair-startless

THIS

I feel like tearing my heart out…

P.S. I’ve finally made a Twitter account today. I’ve been thinking about making one since quite long ago but, well, I just never actually did. Here’s my page.

Approaching freedom and despair

October 23, 2009

lol forgot to publish this earlier, meh whatever.

So last Thursday was the final presentation for one of my subjects this semester and next Friday would be the final exam for another subject of mine. Coming up after that would be my year end semester break which I plan to fill with some part-time job or something as I really need some moolah right now. Due mainly to my desire for a Nintendo Wii and a HP TouchSmart TX2Z tablet PC. The tablet PC was a result of a semi-whimsical web search I did several days ago lol.

I’ve been thinking about getting a laptop ever since I went to my current college as everything here from notes to reservations are done with a computer. On a separate case, I have also been thinking about getting a touch pad for design drafts and actual drawings since I was still doing design back in my previous college, additionally I’ve been having a preference of being able look at my hand work directly at what I’m drawing rather than look away so I really actually didn’t like the idea of a USB touch pad too much. So the answer is a tablet PC~ only that they cost at least about RM5000 here. That’s 5 PS3 if you want to compare by value. Then I ran into this ridiculously good offer by HP that sells a TX2Z for 900USD! That’s only about RM3000! Down by 2 bloody PS3s! (I don’t know if it’s that much of a bargain for people actually living in the US but blah, forex is an ass so for the foreigner me it’s the mother lode) The offer is only available in the US but I spoke with a friend of mine currently in the USA and he agreed to help (if I send the money to him prior) so accessibility is covered. Only problem now is that I don’t have any money orz. Not to mention that since it’s an offer it’ll inevitable end eventually; not knowing when is also another source for pressure. Hence the determination to work~

Oh, then there is the Wii to… aaaaaarrrrgggghhh!!! >______>

Ar Tonelico 3

October 16, 2009
28th January 2010

28th January 2010

lol, I knew it! I so bloody knew it!!! And it’s on the PS3! Just as expected!

But then again, who ever actually finished Ar Tonelico 2 would have already saw this coming, given the events during its ending. However, the tower in Ar Tonelico 3 is called Sol Cluster instead of Tyria, does that suggests something? One of the two heroines also resembles Cocona but her name isn’t Cocona. Plot twist?

Sounds like AT3 is having a lot more revamps than AT2 had from AT1, actually going full 3D for one, along with some other awesome things like custom magic and stuff.  This is so awesome that my vocabulary fails to do it justice. I’m so going to get the limited edition release once it’s out! My other two PS3 comrades might kill me for buying a game in Japanese though lol. Hmm, ok, maybe not since neither of them were interested in any of the previous ATs anyway. w00t, limited edition for me~~~

Here are some scans(?) not by me.

Also, I’ll be leaving to Melaka for a single day trip tomorrow so… uh… yeah.
