It "well-mannered-ly" rampaged the gaming world in the past. I know. Not just in the past, the rampaging is still going on isn't it... Due to Dragon Quest 10, the series is hitting slump. I wonder though. Since nobody knows the detail of the release, shouldn't nail into conclusion hastily They certainly got themselves into the prohibited zone in Dragon Quest 10. Doing something they ain't supposed to. And that is? The concept on exclusively only for online gaming. You darned can enjoy the opening of the game online, but if everything were to be made only exclusively online, it will affect the number of gamers. Its inevitable that the sales will drop. But that's the problem? If you look at the bright side, there're still pros, aren't it. Based on the this topic, the problem lies on the our different points of view. There's nothing to debate about if this online gaming concept is solely only for profit purposes. However, looking at the macro level of Dragon Quest, I wonder is it really a good thing to instill this concept. Not just the profit thing, but they should also taking other circumstances into consideration. Well, I guess today's topic is not solely on Dragon Quest 10, but also the entire Dragon Quest series. Like I said, so what problem does it serve when they are bringing the entire game into online platform? The problem lies on, there are definitely people out there who ain't able to play online. Playing Dragon Quest 10 will be out of question. I'm sure that there are die-hard Dragon Quest series fans who collect the entire series. But because of this online gaming concept, some people are forced to drop this upcoming franchise. And thus, once you drop one collection, even if Dragon Quest 11 is made offline, nobody can foresee whether those who dropped one volume will come back for the other. The same thing applies to Final Fantasy 11. FF fans who are unable to play FF11 drop the idea in continuing their FF collection. Thanks to that, now everybody knows that Final Fantasy series is hitting slump. Or already down in slump. But the sales went up isn't it? That includes overseas market. Overseas game industries have been expanding since 2005. Thus, that explains the increment for the FF13 sales. If we just focus on the local industry, in other words, looking into our Japan-made Final Fantasy franchise series during the peak of the game industry period, they are really down into slump. you mean Final Fantasy 11 is one of the causes? I don't seek for the cause to be this. A title that was supposed to be selling at 2 million copies but was down to only 200k. Well, its still acceptable if at least 200k people played the game. Looking at the sales number, there are definitely people with multiple accounts within the number. I'm sure gamers who seriously touched on FF11 are fewer than the reported numbers. Less than 10% really touched on to the game you mean. Imagine those who played the game through the series but can't even touch it? Well, I'm sure there are people who find the game boring but carried on anyway. Just like reading a manga; you will still continue to the last chapter even though you find the story boring. So you mean the online gaming concept for Dragon Quest 10 is a failure? Depends on further updates. For Dragon Quest 9's case, even though they disabled the online download option, the capacity of the content for the game is enough to cover up the shortcomings. That's provided that Dragon Quest 10 is well-done enough to change the world's perspective. If they center the pre-release promotion on the online concept, people will drift away from it. Or, even if someone bought the game and the online gaming content is lacking, Dragon Quest series will be crowned "boring". Definitely will cause damage to the brand. But its different from during the FF11's period. Online gaming environment has been conducive nowadays. Some people might have the intention to go into more online games. Not quite so. Wii is only via Wi-fi. How many homes actually have Wi-fi installed? More than half of the home users are using wired connection. Still can connect through wired isn't it? If connecting through wired, you will need to buy some peripherals to connect it. And, you will need to disconnect the modem from you PC in order to connect Wi-fi. its troublesome to have to keep repeating it. Isn't router enough to do the job? To get those stuff, money is another concern. Ultimately, its just like making us buy the Playstation 2 BB navigator. The setting for router is rather troublesome, even though it is said that it is less trouble nowadays. I don't think so though. There are people who aint IT savvy. Problems will start coming in. In the first place... In the first place? They deliberately entitled it "online" under the name shows that they are planning to make Dragon Quest 10 in Wii U. If that's the case, hopeful they are able to salvage some numbers in the sales. What have been discussed today is really worrying. If this online concept is nailed, whatever being discussed today will hit the bull's eye. If they were to include some offline substances into the game in the first place, the sales will hit millions. After which, introduce the online concept then. If this exclusively online gaming concept is meant to cater to hundred thousands of users, it will raise the probability on how many people will be able to touch on the game. Well, as far as equipment and setting are being concerned, they can't make haste decision. It will cause congestion if too many people were to start surfing and play at the same time. More complains instead. Wii Wii U caters to both online and offline gaming. Whatever it is, everything depends on the information updates. Including whether the brand is really hitting the slump, lets check it out. ]]> Monster Hunter 3G built for Nintendo 3DS. Will it sell? tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.296 2011-09-17T00:58:27Z 2011-09-17T00:59:02Z Monster Hunter 3G built for Nintendo 3DS. Will it sell? I bet it won't Will you not just shoot out suddenly?

I bet it won't Will you not just shoot out suddenly? Here's the pick-up for Monster Hunter 3G: After the the release of Monster Hunter Tri for Wii, Nintendo 3DS version will be putting on sales. Even though it's also an portable version release, it sort varies from the PSP version release. Nintendo 3DS is a also a portable console though. And its really confusing when they also named the PSP version "Monster hunter 3rd". Since Monster Hunter is coming into Nintendo 3DS, I wonder how will the sales do. Oop? I thought I've already mentioned it right from the start? Are you serious? It won't sell. Probably just around the edge of 100k or so. I didn't mean to be such a wet blanket, but it definitely won't surpass the 1million copies sales for Wii version, not to even mention the 4million copies sales for PSP version. There's not even many Nintendo 3DS units around the market though... That's one of the reason being. Let's just say that whatever that is required from a portable console, PSP fulfills it. So, it defeats the purpose on buying a 3DS. Well, of course gadget goers who fancy new stuff will go for it though. But most gamers will want to be on the same tangent as others. Ultimately, rounding off to how many fancy-new-stuff-goers will buy it, 100k plus or minus is safe figure. How many of them go buy the console then? Depends on the sales period. It might not even hit 500k for the first week. Well, that also depends on the spread for 3DS though. Won't Monster Hunter 3G, the title itself give a pull to the sales? I doubt it will be easy. Well, it will be good if the influential power is impressive enough to surpass 1 million. If retail shops were to bring in too many stocks of the title due to some imprudent management in distribution, it will end up just like Monster Hunter Tri; sold at extreme cheap price varied from the original selling price. Its scary if the history repeats. Its true that Wii's Monster Hunter Tri exceeded 1 million copies. But certainly retail shops sold them at cheap price. Since its close to the year-end sales war, they might instill some bundle console set idea to sell it. If thing goes well, the idea might even boost the sales. That is if they take the price of the bundle, including 4800Yen for the game, within 20,000Yen. It will be up to Nintendo to work out with the idea in order to achieve that. So basically, instead of Capcom, success actually lies on Nintendo. Details of the release date is really worth looking forward, yeah? Originally, Monster Hunter series is developed for home machines, Monster Hunter portable series for mobile consoles and online frontier for internet. It will be good if they can keep on with this compartmentalization. I would like to witness what sort of influence Capcom will arouse from now on. ]]> Is the latest Sony head-mounted display HMZ-T1 a good recommendation for gaming? tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.295 2011-09-13T16:57:05Z 2011-09-13T16:58:02Z Is the latest Sony head-mounted display HMZ-T1 a good recommendation for gaming? Since the article was posted on Twitter, I'll do an introduction. "Sony Head-mounted display has gone so far to this resemblance of a futuristic visor model. So... makonako Is the latest Sony head-mounted display HMZ-T1 a good recommendation for gaming? Since the article was posted on Twitter, I'll do an introduction.

"Sony Head-mounted display has gone so far to this resemblance of a futuristic visor model. So can games be installed into it?" The first-in-the-world 3D head-mounted display in HD EL panel that Sony unveiled earlier, right? When you wear it on your head, you are able to experience cinema-like viewing. The 3D support and EL panel seem to be the selling point. It has been revealed on Youtube and other online streaming websites. Have a look.

I see. So, what's the change? No, There won't. So, that means to say...？ Head-mounted display is just a Head-mounted display. Even if there are some upgrade and specialities coming out, it won't wash away the shortcomings the of the headgear. Not really worth it. shortcomings？ It adds weight to the head. Therefore, you can't use it for long. Other developers restricted the weight at around 100g and Sony actually came out with a 420g display. Its wouldn't be surprising to tire out after a long period of use with such a weight. The weight is an issue, yeah? Not just that. There are others like the eyes will get weary and stuff. I've tried it out back then. But ended up throwing it aside without touching it anymore. The speed of technology improve tremendously nowadays compared to back then, you see. There might be a difference in use isn't it? Well, if that's the case, let's hope so. So, is HMZ-T1 recommendable? The selling point is they actually price it at around 60,000Yen. I don't mind buying it if I can enjoy the 3D effect with this price. More economical than to buy a new TV for it. I'll just close one eye even if its not meant for long stimulation period. Long stimulation period...you mean watching porn? I'm talking about short period of time. heheheh Its probably hard to focus even when it comes to the exciting part. For what? Don't make me say that... Hey, what are you guys talking about... There're lot of games you can play it on 3D. Just make use of the headgear to try it out. For normal TV, it will be good enough if you make use of the subroutines. So? buying? Does feel like getting it. The previous article on "Future GPX Cyber Formula coming in Blu-Ray box" introduced to the 3D visuals. If I'm able to watch it, I wonder if I'm able to reach the zero regime. You are buying it just because of that...? Makes me feel like getting it since we touched on this topic. So its the result of Sony's stealth marketing huh... I don't think so though... Stores likebiccamera.com、sofmap.com,Sony Store has start taking in pre-orders.Interested buyers please search for "HMZ-T1" to check it out. ]]> Tokyo Game Show 2011 outline reviewed.

There will be an announcement on new work release on Dragon Quest 25th Anniversary press conference. The conference can be viewed online. I'm sure there are quite a number of viewers already. And they will be revealing new release of the franchise during the conference. The new release, namely, Dragon Quest X: Mezameshi Itsutsu no Shuzoku will be on Wii and Wii U platform. Estimated to be release during 2012. Wii U? Online game? There will be a graphic upgrade on the newWii U platform. There won't be a change in the content of the game. Also, its an online game itself and Square Enix is the developer. amen It's still too early to be pessimistic... I'm darned sure Final Fantasy 14 shouldn't be done by Square Enix. Well, I'll drop it since its over. They will screw up if its online? I guess I'm not the the right to say anything since there are only vague details on the game. I'm anticipating on how will it shape up with the the online factors. Its a series coherent with the view of the world, ain't be that bad I guess. Well then, does worth a recommendation? umm...I wonder though. There are still other factors like the billing an stuff to consider. And its still not clear whether it is playable offline either. I can't really give a damn on it. However, it seems like there is no offline play, its quite a risk for those who are unable to play it online. Ultimately, it still depends on the game itself. Looking at Dragon Quest 9, I can sense that Horii Yuuji has wanted to do a collaboration play thing, especially since Dragon Quest action version hasn't been really recognized in the market. Looking at how things are going, it won't be surprising to see future franchise turning into online game. However, some changes were done in Dragon Quest 9 during the midst. The end result might also depends on the users opinions. I wonder how it will turn out to be... Whatever it is, isn't it interesting to see both Dragon Quest's Hokii Yuuji and Final Fantasy's Sakaguchi Hirobuko to be heading towards online games? Its interesting to see the 2 pioneer leaders of Japan's RPG-game industry to be coming out with the same conclusion. The only difference will be the outcome of the game content. Will you try out then? I'm still quite lost. I've already had enough with FF11 and FF14. Don't really want to touch MMORPG anymore though. But I'm really interested on the what sorts of work will Hokii Yuuji produce. Well, everything still depends greatly on the information updates though. What's more, it will be compatible with Nintendo 3DS. However, I do wish there can be a cross-over of network. And, there will be a Beta Test... Details will be revealed soon. What does the beta test contains? Let's pray that everything works... ...... ]]> Tokyo Game Show 2011 outline reviewed.

Seems like for-business-use-purpose-only Mobile Suits Gundam EXTREME VS. will be put on sales for PS3 platform. Scheduled to put on rack for sales on 1 December. Ohh, well well. With an online battle system too. Great, its a dream comes true. I'm sure everyone knows about it. It'd been repeating umpteen times after all. Whats with this irksome way of talking...? On 11 Feb 2010, the article "With the latest GundamVS series being announced, will home-use version be selling in PS3? " mentioned that they will release the PS3 version before the business-use version. On top of that, the article on 7 May 2010, "Petition on Mobile Suits Gundam EXTREME VS. PS3 version, announcement period for the squeal" also mentioned that PS3 ver being launched at the end of the year. Amongst the comments, they also received those like, "since there will be an update on the contents, hell there's no way it will launch at the end of the year." Like I said, its irksome... Argh~ That means there's a need to head down to this coming weekend's KyaraHobi. Wonder if its really worth the trip though. Actually they will be showcasing last year's work for this year's 10-year-anniversary GundamVS series celebration. Alas, when will they be releasing info on the Gundam's battle system? During KyaraHobi? Tokyo Game Show 2011? Or some event held by some game company on October? Well, I guess there are people out there who think that it is not some Gundam that is worth looking out for. What is it? about the Gundam... Well, leave the PS3 thing aside, let's discuss about whether there will be any changes in business-use version. I wonder what it will turn out to be... According to what's happening around, it might turn out to be what was discussed before. Here's a pick-up from what was discussed in the past.

"If things are running smooth, PS3 Version will probably be in position to compete in the game market this coming year end. If not, at least they will be done with the business-use updates and a sequel will be possible. The sequel might not be a brand new title, but a big version-up from the previous one. Who knows they might even be giving a briefing on it during the amusement related events on February 2012."(Taken fromPetition on Mobile Suits Gundam EXTREME VS. PS3 version, announcement period for the squeal ) They might announce a "Mobile Suits Gundam EXTREME VS. DX" or whatsoever next year. Whatever it is, let's look forward to the PS3 version first. I just hope that we are given permission to upload the battle gameplay... You are still saying it... I don't' know about the online battle environment, but if they were to give an introduction by releasing some gameplay videos, it makes everyone feel like "let's battle!", isn't it? What's your ability level? Average within average. What's the point of the challenge if everybody is claiming themselves? With 2nd Super Robot Wars OG release being delayed, let's just pray that there's no clash with this one. It will be good if the release is to be on the beginning of next year, or even 15 Dec (after weeks after Super Robot Wars). What we can do is to wait for the latest update anyway. Well, then, let's meet again during the online battle. ]]> Nintendo 3DS, Price cut 10000 YEN at once, Nintendo incorrect nature, what is the impact to PS Vita? tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.275 2011-07-30T03:21:22Z 2011-07-30T03:24:34Z Nintendo 3DS, Price cut 10000 YEN at once, Nintendo incorrect nature, what is the impact to PS Vita?

"Nintendo 3DS" sounds like a significant price cuts. The price will be changed from 25000 YEN to 15000YEN, which is 10000 YEN cheaper than the launching price. New price effective from 11 August. It is a significant price cut sice it had released for six months. 10000 YEN cheaper!? Whats going on for this significant price cut? The Nintendo 3DS I bought on release date have not turned on for more than 10 minutes, I have it on my hand.... Please play it even for a little bit time.... The impact for this price cut is significant. There is a lot to say, lets start from how to follow those who have already bought 3DS. It seems to compensate by download content. You can download many free software. The person who bought it at a higher price can access the Internet for Nintendo 3DS, until August 10 they are allowed to access "Nintendo e-shop" So how about those who can access to the internet. Such problem happens too... You can access in advanced in order to enjoy some free Nintendo titles from 1 September. In addition, this year it plans to deliver some Game Boy Advance titles. Distribution of this Game Boy Advance is subject to those who have accessed by 10 August. I bought 3DS not because I am Nintendo fans...... Again, such problem happens. Recently, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina 3D" and "Star Fox 64 3D" People who bought 3DS for these titles would think more in particular. It's cheaper by 10,000 yen in a single month. In addition, same for those we bought for new color "Nintendo 3DS red flare" Criticism from those is unavoidable. Counting for these problem, what should we comment on this price cut? It is very GREAT. Oh no!? You praise it?? Past is past. The future is the future. I want to evaluate actions to be taken in the future. Moreover, price cut price is not 20000 YEN or 19800 YEN but cut down to 15000 YEN in once. Also good pricing momentum. It is really chaep. Well, it is said that the cost for 3DS is not expensive at all, even cut price in this degree will not result in deficit. But then why Nintendo did not do this at the beginning? It is because Nintendo nature is incorrect. Nature... Nintendo always said do not dabble in other areas, because of that, Nintendo has a history being a game manufacturer only. However, rather than just having this wide thinking, they should have captured the underlying nature and take action. What is that nature?/td> While the popularity of the console increased, number of software provided to that console would also increased. As a result Nintendo game console would be flourish. However, Nintendo 3DS is not matching this nature. It is the pricing of 25000 YEN right? To pursue their own interests, the pricing is just buyable price. However it is a unwise action result from just thinking their own interest. To increase popularity of 3DS platform, the expensive pricing should be the first issue to eliminate. The sales of Software would not be good in low popularity. That would be fine for their own company sofeware, but it is a frivolous action towards third party software maker. Software maker's profit could only made by selling software, that should be good for them if cheap 3DS ccould increase its popularity. Even Nintendo said they will provide possible support to 3DS sofeware maker but the pricing action prove that they do not match the nature. Would the price cut this time bring them back to the nature? At least in terms of price is right. However, the software maker has been betrayed thought has been discontinued development of software for Nintendo 3DS gradually. As we have introduced earlier, "Rockman DASH3" is a good example. Nintendo 3DS stop the flow of software development by software companies began to move surreptitiously, this announcement can stop the development termination or not is unknown. Or rather impossible. What.... This effect comes out around two years or one year. When this area becomes lack of software , they evolved into things like the recent lack of Wii software. So, they would have had sold at the price point aat about 19 800 YEN from the day of sale. Well, we can't help it by speaking from the result. 3DS was changed to 15,000 yen, but whether or not directly related to the popularity of the platform, whether the software could release consistanly or not is another persistent problem.They wanted this excitement to be continue till the end of year, if the sales of 3DS console is not good during this time, Meanwhile, software makers have discontinued further development, development are going to postpone. This is very impotant point to follow. But this significant price cut would also affect PS Vita, right? I can't predict PS Vita is a good selling console or not.... What.... It may be sold in Japan as the successor to the PSP, the sales might be good. But the sales of PSP is not that good in oversea market. PS Vita will need to increase its popularity while facing other problem. Of course, the price cut of 3DS this time not also create a price differences, also will have other huge problems coming. PS Vita is similiar to iPod or smartphone rather than 3DS, which have to worry about them too. Well, 3DS price cut this time, Nintendo in the future, what will the time industry become, we would like to check it firmly. ]]> Rockman DASH3(3DS) development terminated What is the reason? tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.274 2011-07-26T02:07:58Z 2011-07-26T02:28:24Z Rockman DASH3(3DS) development terminated What is the reason?

We could not meet your expectation, very sorry.(From Official site of Rockman DASH3) In other words, what does that mean? This is the decision based on low popularity of 3DS. What.... Well, Nitendo 3DS itself have problems for sure, as we have mentioned earlier, the resignation of Keiji Inafune affected this alot. Regarding the resignation of Mr Keiji Inafune, COVERED BY 30-Oct-2010 Keiji Inafune, General Manager of Capcom developers resigned, the affection on Capcom title release schedule etc.. Below had stated.

There will be possibility on termination on project which has been led by Keiji Inafune. (From Keiji Inafune, General Manager of Capcom developers resigned, the affection on Capcom title release schedule etc..) Rockman DASH3 was one of the title led by Inafune. In addition, the development of Rockman Universe had also terminated. Termination on development announced on 31-Mar-2011. The timing is different so I think this time is largely affected by the low popularity of 3DS. Well, we could expect this result from his resignation. It is sad for Rockman fans, but no way.... I concert the Rockman series itself in the future, I want to play it again insome way new. ]]> Macross F Sayonara No Tsubasa and announcement of upcoming PS3 game. tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.273 2011-07-21T02:30:35Z 2011-10-15T07:23:40Z

End roll It is full of famous songs. People who do not have PS3 BANDAI channelwill have live relay, just check it out. What do you think about this information. This means that, the latest PS3 Macross F game will come with the Macross F movie SAYONARA NO TSUBASA, they will be released together. ...... What--!! It may be announced in the live. Ohhh!! I think it will be announced in the magazine before that. So the live relay will not be the first announcer. It is unavoidable because the relationship with the magazine company. It will be released on Oct or Nov. Last year, and PS3 game soft released together in set, the time will be released in the same way I think. Game and animation always released in set recently. Then, I think at the begining of next year, same game programme will be diverted, to be used to make a full version game will lots of Macross title in it. Expect till next year.... It would flow like this. Anyway let's wait for the magazine this week. ]]> EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: INSECT ARMAGEDDON review tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.272 2011-07-16T23:07:54Z 2011-07-16T23:10:23Z

An oversea prodction team... makonako EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: INSECT ARMAGEDDON review I have finihed playing EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: INSECT ARMAGEDDON so would like to review this game. The extra edition game of Earth Defence Force series which launched on 7-JUL. An oversea prodction team is developing the game. Firstly, what is the overall assessment? Subtle Opps Whether speaking in terms of fun, its funny. However, there are many for me to mind, there are also too much to be questioned which lower the rating. First of all, which are the enjoyable parts? It is full covered with Earth Defense Force atmosphere, so those who have played the series before can fully enjoy the game. Since the game is made by oversesa company, so I wonder how big the change would be, but not changed much. Which has reasonably enjoyable content. But, the bad place lead to lower rating. Exactly. What is the bad part? There are many.... Is that much.... First throughout the game it is unfriendly. There so many thing that we dont know whats going on on the system. In addition, the poor explanation is a problem. Could you tell me some specific point? First, we can not reverse the view changing method from left to right in the controller setting. Those who familiar with other games already will be harsh. Upside down can be done....why we cant do left right reverse....but question mark... If they have think about upside down setting, its better to add left right reverse too. Then, as we play the story mode, we dont know the timing to stop the game. We cant save anytime so we dont know when to switch off the console. Moreover, cleared stage in satage selection is confusing. After select difficulty and chapter on the lower left, even the mission in the chapter could be choose, but it just move on to upper right side, it would be hard to notice if you focus on lower left. While playing till to the middle part, I still could not notice mission could be choose. Even the user manual only have chapter selection written on it. There also many problems in the online mode. I think it is one of the highlights of this game? It is fun to play with other players, but the setting is difficult. Particularly, it is severe that you can not set difficulty when you join in. Since the difficulty could not set, player who could only clear low difficulty forced to challenge high difficulty, on the other hand player who wish to play in high difficulty result in playing low difficulty level. The matching is not going well... Thats fine if we still have some experience from it, regardless of online and offline, high level player could not have any experience from playing low difficulty, just a waste of time. That makes game play itself meaningless..... There are many other, too many part are unfriendly which makes me stressed out over the game.... The problem occurs outside of main chapter of the game is regrettable. However, it is true that the game nature would be change with or with out those part. So the problem is this about? No, I can raise many more.... Ohhh really.... There some sound bugs and freeze problem. In addition, the volume is small overall, so even the online mode is lack of excitement. If there more contents, the game is worth recommending to people, absolutely regrettable. I see. I cant really say it is a good game, but it might be enough for a comfortable game enjoyment. Try playing it stresslessly. Particularly for playstation user, it is the title long time out of the latest series. ]]> PlayStation Network finally restored in Japan, meaningless apology tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.270 2011-07-11T03:49:33Z 2011-07-11T03:52:26Z PlayStation Network finally restored in Japan, meaningless apology PlayStation Network seems also restored in Japan.

Restoration spread to Japan from July 06. In the West on June 02, recovering has already been started in other parts of Asia, Japan still not yet. However, the spread of this July 06 will bring every thing to normal among all region's PlayStation Network. So every thing will as usual. There would be a really long way to regain normal. Is there still a problem? Some online game has scheduled to do a beta test, but unable to do it due to PlayStation Network outage. So the release schedule may changed in future. We could only say every things have back to normal when those titles launched. Such as Armored Core 5. The start time is delayed by one week due to the postponed this time. What will the impact be on this one week time, we should note the future release date and information. The release date keep unchange on October 20 in Japan, hope that it will not postpone. Regarding this disorder, we had received a post as below.

Even Sony released apologies and gratitude package for personal information leakage, to Japanese customer, it is pretty subtle. For now, I want to know the number of sales of about six months for those free softwares, do you get it? (post) 2 months has already passed since PSN failure, Japan still has not come to fully resum, no prospect announced too. Why the resumation of service is late only in Japan. After all, apologies and gratitude have just announced only, we have no idea on what is apologies nad what is gratitude. Free software is provided as follows. The following is taken from the official site of Sony Computer Entertainment.

There was a post wanted to know the sales number of these titles. It would be tired to examining so I will not speak so detailed, but I can say they are not that bad sellers. There are some titles exclusive on download sales. However, if a good selling title was used for apology software, many people would have already played, so number of people who can actually receive would be decreased. So that would be a good idea to use bad sellers title for apology software. ummmm. On the other hand, those people who bought all the titles offered this time, contributed to Sony Computer Entertainmaent, would receive less benefits.... Takaing that into account, it would be better to having point which could be use freely. However, if the point is used to buy content from other company, Sony Computer Entertainmaent will need to pay that money. Without paying any extra money and to convince reasonably, the easier way is to provide their own product for free download. The number of people who are not going to play would be huge, standing on the user side they will not count these as any apology action... Sure... While saying negative things, now there are many games provide service via PlayStation Network, so restoration itself is the most appreciation. Makoto san use it too? No...when think about this....I very seldom use it.... ... ]]> How to increase the skills and special equipment - Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 FAQs & Walkthrough tag:www.makonako.net,2011://1.269 2011-07-04T00:17:25Z 2011-07-04T00:21:09Z makonako How to increase the skills and special equipment - Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 FAQs & Walkthrough Continue to introduce gaming tips of Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3!These information are based on Japanese version Today I'll show you how to increase the skills and special equipment.Firstly, lets start from introducing method to increase the skills.The increasing method mainly as follows

Today we are going to start from the recommended mobile suit We hope that it would be helpful to you by introducing these recommended mobile suit Here is the information straight from the pages already published in Japan.

Unicorn Gundam

Mobile suite which is handy and easy to used。

If you got a controller with rapid-fire function, it would be even more easy to play with this mobile suit

Let's fight mainly by wrestling style

When you store the SP guage and use it for SP attack, you can fight with the destroy mode in a fixed time. In the destroy mode, even normal attack would becomes powerful so in order to keep in fighting in this mode, it would be important on maintaining the SP guage.

Gives first priority on storing SP guage by using charge attack4(fight>fight>fight>shoot), then use SP attack and change to destroy mode

Since it is a fighting style machine, so mainly add your points on it in maintaince.

Gundam DX

Satellite cannon SP attack is the charming point of Gundam DX. Since it is easy to conquere for bases, it is most suitable for a fast play. However, it could not transform so a little bit difficult on moving.

Let's focus on shooting remodelation.

Gundam Unicorn is too easy to use, this alone would be enough. If there is a rapid fire controller, it can be played without fatigue on hands. Then I am going to introduce recommened partner, by using the pilot name.

Sochie Heim

She will place HP recovery item to us. It is very useful since it fully recover your HP., while battling huge enemies in particular.

Cecily Fairchild

The force guage would be restored. The recovery level is higher than the general military (Ball), recommend to those who rely on the allies to fight. It would be a good idea to conbine with the skill , especially might be helpful in those mission with plenty of allies.

Lacus Clyne

Attacks in a way by pulling enemies towards player. You can attack those enemies by your machine. It would be easy to conquere for bases where the enemies are concentrated. Of course, while the enemy pilot being pulled, you can continue to attack with out taking any hit back risk.

Although Athrun Zala and Duo Maxwell have similar attack method, Duo will roll up the enemy, the disadvantage is our attack would be difficult to hit the enemy. In addition, Athrun applies pulling attack while moving, which also difficult to hit the enemy by our attack. Thus, we recommend Lacus among these similiar attack method.

Funnel

Mainly Char, Haman, Puru are apopriate. Funnels are set around our mobile suit, beam will shoot out in respond to our attack. Char only shoot forward, Haman shoot around the machine, puru shoot out little beams to surrounding places. Haman and Puru could be used in a way to not to beat up enemy during continious attack.

Today's introduction ends here then.　 ]]>
