Heat Actions

http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/8376/photo0s.jpg

Heat Actions, which have made battles more exciting throughout the series, have undergone a major evolution in this game. The force of these overwhelming techniques are still here, but the way they are handled is different; they no longer affect the flow of battle. There has been a drastic increase in variety of techniques - ranging from powerful attacks to comical attacks. Each character starts with techniques typifying their own battle styles, as well as gaining new heat actions from their local area.

Climax Heat
Bring out the big guns with an attack that turns the tables!

Climax Heat is a newly added aspect of battle. It is an attack which boasts a huge amount of power and can pave the way to victory in a fight. Unlike regular heat actions, this is a technique which can completely turn the tide of a battle and is used when special conditions are met. The attack is extremely flashy and the power varies with button input.

Revelations
Drastic power-up and with its own storyline!

http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/6858/photo5px.jpg

Revelations, a popular feature of the series, are back in this game. All the protagonists, including Haruka, can learn a new technique by witnessing events around the city. Acquiring revelations has been dramatically improved with the inclusion of its own story, which one can enjoy in the same way that one would enjoy any other substory. In addition to this, the characters are now able to suddenly have revelations in battle to gain new techniques.

Re: Yakuza series

Battle Staging

Seemless Battle

All battles, from fights with random guys on the street to boss fights, now utilise a seemless system. The game now goes straight into battle directly, with no break in the flow at all, from an event leading to battle or an incident on the streets. Even storyline boss battles flow directly from story to battle and you can enjoy the greatest abundance of scenarios ever seen in the series.

The fundamentals have been upgraded

http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/9345/photo0jj.jpg

The reaction towards an enemy's or protagonist's actions have evolved; there will be enemies who run away in reaction to one of your powerful techniques, and there will be enemies who rouse themselves. Also, enemies will do things like team up on you, or call for more companions. The variety in battle has been dramatically improved. There are enemies beyond imagination and a battle scale never before seen in the series

http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/3928/photo1xqw.jpg


Dance Battle

http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/3169/photo0l.jpg

Haruka competes in dance battles as part of her training for Princess League. There are dancers waiting for an opponent to compete with in various places around Soutenbori, to whom you can issue a dance battle challenge by talking to them. Each dancer has their own genre speciality. The genres of music are hip-Hop, house, idol, jazz and rock.

"Dance Battle" System

http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/175/photo1ltk.jpg

This is a rhythm game in which you are required to time button presses with the corresponding buttons that stream along the four frames arranged on the screen (Above, Below, Left, Right). The frames can be moved freely by the player and you get a successful input when the selected frame and button timing match up, which directly brings out a flashy action from the character. There is a "Judging" component which reflects the audience appraisal of the dancer. Judging is determined by the content of the dance and a dancer who receives negative appraisal will feel great pressure and lose health. When all health is lost, you cannot continue the dance battle and are defeated.

Turn the tables with "Dance Heat"

http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/6751/photo2efw.jpg

Heat actions can be used in Haruka's dance battles, featuring both showy and cute techniques. Like with the other characters, when the heat gauge reaches a certain amount, you can use a heat technique at any time you like. You can select which dance heat actions Haruka can use before a battle. They exhibit great effectiveness that can completely turn things around for you when in an unfavourable situation.

http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/5841/photo3kb.jpg

Improving "Power of Expression"

http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/2318/photo4qpc.jpg

When she wins a dance battle, one of Haruka's "Power of Expression" idol abilities can be improved. "Power of Expression" is essential for victory in the Princess League.

Re: Metal Gear series

^I seem to remember a teaser trailer with Snake trying to hide and stuff was falling down with the tagline No Place to Hide. Is that what you're referring to?

Anyway, the setting of MGS5 doesn't sound like a bad idea. I just wanted them to let the series end. Hopefully it's still stealth based. There was a time where I would be really excited about this. Now I just feel skeptical. I guess I've had too many of my favorite Japanese series ruined/changed/cancelled/etc.
That's the one. There was a joke where Snake was dressed as Sam Fisher sneaking in the dark. Funny that..

Re: Organise Online Games Together

I actually never got Borderlands, I changed my mind. I was having such a hard time deciding what 3rd game I should get besides Binary Domain and Birds of Steel I just only went with those two for now.

Amazon has like several canceled orders from me I was having such a hard time deciding. So I figured just save that extra money for when I do know what I want for sure.
We can play Binary Domain online!

Re: Wii U

Seriously can't decide on launch games. Darksiders 2, Sega Racing 2, Mario Wiiu (I have a soft spot for Yoshi), Zombiu, and Ninja Gaiden 3
Earn a little cash suck some dick get them all everybody wins...except some of those men might give you a cold sore....hmmmm
I'm getting the 32GB Wii U and so far Wii U is really stepping up to the plate I'm pretty excited too. When I get a job I'll definitely pick one up.


The Wii U storage media is confirmed to be Blu-ray based and support up to 25 GB of data per disc, at 22.5 MB/s data transfer rate. Nintendo might reveal more Wii U specs tomorrow at the event in New York. Here's hoping that means it will play Blurays too. I mean, only PS3 does right now so they'd be silly not to. (Course, they were silly not to let Wii play DVDs.)
No it won't Nintendo doesn't like to pay license fee's. Also remember Wii discs were not DVD but Wii Optical media. Wii U will also be proprietary. Good thing is like Wii I bet homebrew let's you play blu ray like DVD on Wii.
Looking at the launch window this might be one of the better launch lineup in quite some time. Sure some are ports but ports of some good games. Also very varied. Are you more the casual type? They have some of those for that/ Are you more of the Call of Duty type they got that also. Are you just in for varied genres like Action Adventure sports strategy (well sorta but not really) Horror? RPG? It's there at launch.

I think Nintendo finally got it where they failed with 3DS,DS,Wii, GCN and N64. Yeah all those had a weak launch.
Hope they talk about monolith's game soon.

Re: Bayonetta 2

First game was crap.
Someone is trolling because it's not coming to their console of choice. Like the comments in the video...or you played it on PS3 in that case you'd be right as the PS3 version was garbage.
Not trolling, just indifferent really. And yeah, I only have a PS3 so that guess was correct. I did follow it for a while, actually. Watched reviews, forum opinions, the whole nine yards. Ultimately, it was very disappointing.

Even if it were coming to PS3 I still couldn't care any less :devillaugh:

Surprised no-one else is thinking it's about damn time Kojima does something other than Metal Gear. I've long since been bored of it all..
We've been saying that for years now, but what we have in mind is something entirely new... not jumping into remakes of his old games or making Silent Hills (of all fucking things, he's probably the last guy for that one, lol).
Snatcher and Policenauts for me outweigh every Metal Gear bar MGS on PS1.

Re: Best/worst looking systems/fave/least fave controllers

Probably the only person to say this: I'm liking the new super-slim PS3.

I'll make the main point first, just look how tiny it is! I used the official shot for sense of scale, it's the length of one and a half Dualshock's.

http://s8.postimage.org/hnypk1zqt/ps3_slim_main.jpg

And just a bit taller than a Blu-Ray case..

http://s8.postimage.org/b6keeaer9/cimg0563.jpg

It may have the return of the fingerprint magnet glossy plastic but it doesn't seem to be a high finger traffic area since you use the eject button to open the slider.
