First it was Disgaea then it was La Pucelle,and maybe we will get Phantom Brave,and now this.Atlus sure is pringing down the house this year.Look at all the people who are joining to make this game.
Atlus has become one of my favorite if not my favorite company.
Atlus has always been a great company. They’re responsible for Ogre Battle and Tactics Ogre being in the states. I think Square bought Atlus a couple years ago.
La Pucelle was translated by Mastiff, and I believe Phantom Brave is being translated by the newly created American branch of Nippon Ichi. So, I don’t think you can really give Atlus credit for those unless you go with the theory that they wouldn’t have been brought over if it weren’t for Disgaea.
Wow, way to link to RPLAMER on the RPGC message board I wouldn’t be surprised if you got the major smackdown ban from Merl.
And yeah, Atlus has always been good at making games which are both interesting to play (plot-wise, or at least premise-wise) and with really good gameplay. I uh, don’t have a PS2, but if I did I’d be looking forward to this game, heh.
Atlus has two subsidiaries that are godly. The first being R&D 1, which brought them fame and fortune in Japan (ANYTHING related to Shin Megami Tensei, meaning : Persona, Soul Hackers, and so on and so forth).
The second being Million, which is basically Technos Japan Corp. under a new name. They’ve been remaking their own games for GBA, and I’ve yet to find one that sucked. Granted, the localization for Super Dodgeball Advance was bad, but come on, Atlus really redeemed itself with RCREX.
