    I dint realized that Tecmo-Koei bought Gust till these days. Now that I see that NISA will not longer localize Gust games I feel something similar to the death of a close friend…

    I don’t trust Tecmo-Koei one bit or any company that gives more preference to Japanese costumers.

      NISA is still localizing them. Well, they localized Ayesha, at least. Not sure about future games. But Tecmo Koei is publishing.

    Sal, can we have this pic for the next Open Forum? Just a good way to remind others the release of Fire Emblem: Awakening.

      Sounds good. Will save it for next week!

    We finally finished DMC, and it was pretty incredible. My friend gives it a 9/10 and says the only action game he likes more is Bayonetta. Even though I’ve seen the whole story mode, I’ve probably only played a third of it, so I’m reluctant to give it a rating.

    Also, the higher difficulties actually make the game challenging and allow you to utilize larger combos (on the lower levels, most enemies die too quickly for you to do a cool combo). There is quite a bit of replay in this one, probably even more if you play Bloody Palace (though I don’t know if that’s out for the PC version yet?)

    I guess is that time of the month again for “Sili….”, was posting on the miku dlc thread bam, comment gone within the first two minutes, guess Spencer is still pissed about having no clue on the Silver Vita vs White on that whole other discussion, oh well, at least people here are far more understanding.

    Dont leave us gematsu like andriasang did, couldn’t stomach losing two sites that I daily check T_T.

      What happened exactly? I’m confused.

      • Belenger

        On that site, there’s a clear hatred of anything related sony so whenever they post something incorrectly and the comments laugh about it they get a bit riled and on the mood to moderate stuff.

        Two news later there was this news about Project Diva f dlc, http://www.siliconera.com/2013/02/03/hatsune-miku-project-diva-f-gets-snow-miku-module-dlc/#disqus_thread, in which I posted a comment to the cross-region-dlc on consoles following another post, pointing that Ridge Racer 7(Ps3) and Senko no Ronde (360), had this feature intented or not, my post got deleted within minutes, tried to post again “Your post has been moved to moderation”.

        That’s what it had me pissed about, It wasnt a harmful or trollish post, I was just posting information.

          Rather than the whole staff, I think it’s mostly Ishaan… I saw a tweet from him with a very strong aura of “Anti-Sony” and “Anti-Tales” a long time ago…

        • http://gematsu.com/ Zero

          That sucks. I’m sorry that happened.
          I don’t like to see comments get removed. We don’t like to remove comments here at gematsu. It has to be something really awful, something directed at another individual that crosses the guidelines. We also remove spam/bot comments, but that’s normal.

          Even then, we prefer to edit the comments before removing them. I think removing a comment should be a last resort. (With temp ban following right after that.)

          I don’t know what guidelines they follow over there, but I can say that I frown upon deleting large amounts of comments. People should be able to post opinions, without worrying about the comment getting removed.

  • http://twitter.com/RaiuLyn Raiu

    Woah… I’m starting to see why some people don’t like Siliconera… Just got my comment deleted just because of a legitimate question… Would have given me an answer than quickly delete it, I appreciate it so we can move on…
