Any NFL fans out there? I've been (im)patiently waiting for Madden to be released, but got a nice surprise from my daily market check today - Backbreaker 2: Vengeance has just been released as a Play exclusive
First impressions after 10 mins play, loving it large Excellent graphics, zero lag, heaps of fun to play... and the controls on this puppy just make games like this rock I played this before on my old iPhone and I loved it but it was frustrating with the onscreen controls (yuck).
The Play is the best phone on the planet, bar none

Rugby with pads n helmets lol
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
Lol, yeah a very under appreciated sport outside of the states. I just got hooked on it this year myself, weirdly I hate rugby. Prob cuz I had to play it in school
Highly complex, super athletes, massively entertaining... and the only sport where they openly have one goal in mind... kill the ball carrier. Never mind the pads & the helmets, this is a sport where real injuries are every game Those crunching tackles are what most of us won't admit we all love to watch lol.
Anyway, go play the game. The replays are ultra cool on the new tackling module end of the game. Go break the runner in half
American Football originated from Football(Soccer) and Rugby.
That's why American's call it Football, even though you play it with your hands.

I'm a fan of soccer (soccer is an english made name for football that the americans adopted - it comes from association football, was to differentiate itself from rugby football, aussie rules, gaelic etc.) I also love Rugby and am a massive fan of american football.
The massive misconception is that its rugby with pads - you dont get off the ball hits in rugby and most of the hits and braced for and expected
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7CZ_RgcJxk
Its also a much more tactical and strategic game than both rugby and football. Football/rugby are about stamina and endurance, keeping going without any breaks, the nfl is all out every second they are playing for with a short rest between plays.
Whilst the advertising is awesome during the superbowl there are much more creative parts to the game - the whole player system and drafting part is much better in the NFL (and all US sports) than it is with rugby and football. Creativity is all part of the game.
Anyway back on topic - I love backbreaker, played the first and now the second, I feel they could make a whole game from it and not just the 'mini' game type feel it has. Would be great if you could play a full game against opponents similar to madden superstar perhaps.
Madden is great on the X Play - not very long, only one season and far too easy even on hard but potential. The apk is floating around somewhere on these forums

Exactly, and pads allow players to give more massive hits - which the pads do little when it comes to the actual force absorbed by the body.

Lol who was you playing with your little sister (joke). American football is an ok game, too boring to watch but ok to play imo.
Rugby and football are in a different league, its all about how the game flows but I suppose its all a matter of opinion.
Best sport to come from America is the ufc now there is a game I could do with on my play or fight night would be good.

English games have their merits and so do american sports - they are more like cricket, its a well paced game all about strategy and timings. Football and rugby are about stamina. They are in different leagues but parallel to each other.
And about the little sister joke, I find it hard to watch professional football for all the rolling around when someone gets close to them! Seems like they are the ones that are acting like girls!

YESSS ff9 was amazing
Now I loved Chrono Trigger, but I don't know if I'd buy it yet again at this point. However, if they optimized it to work with both the touch screen and with the buttons on the Xperia Play similarly to how they did on the DS port, then I think they will make a lot of people happy. I know people that can't stand trying to use the on-screen SNES controls for playing games like CT. One went the route of using a Wii Remote and Classic Controller to work around it, but that's hardly a portable solution. So if they implement more intuitive touch controls, it could go a long way on smart phones.

FF9 surprisingly was verry dark! i thought it couldnt be darker than FF7 0.0!Also vivi ftw!
Please refrain from calling any Final Fantasy game "dark". The darkness (and depth) of its plots is comparable to a Sponge Bob chapter.
Being centered around relationship issues and lacking a credible sexual dynamic deprives the plots from any possible attractiveness towards audiences with some matureness... such as we the people who bought those games originally,and we're now over our 20s.
It is little wonder that no one takes video games seriously if Final Fantasy is offered as the highlight of plots. Teenagers bought those games en masse, the same way they made their parents buy crap plots like Eragon or the Twilight series.

What you said is so true. I always wonder why game developers don't make games for kids, teens and adults instead of just kids and teens. Movies cater for all age groups, why don't video games? I tried to play ff10 and it was so unbelievably childish I could not stomach it for more than three or four hours. how about an AO or Mature rated final fantasy? hasn't the current set of new final fantasies, ie from ps2 era onwards, failed miserably enough to cause game developers to reassess their strategies?
I think the issue is that we were the first Western generation towards which games were marketed heavily, and we accept video games as any other media. As we, and newer generations, grow up and keep demanding videogames, some of us will ask for more mature plots and character developments and a market for them will appear.
This development will be probably similar to what happened with manga in Japan: first shojo titles had the spotlight, add they were directed at little children, then shonen, and when the target population grew up, more mature titles appeared from the seventies onward.
I would rather have new titles and sagas with fresher concepts though.Retooling known series is harder than starting from scratch.. That's why I like ideas like Katherine.
Anyone else disgusted by final fantasy 13? The cinematics were sweet, but it felt like i was playing Resident Evil.... pretty lame.
In psone era and when I was younger i'd call ff games dark for me -_-

FF7, FF8, FF9 and 10 were great. I played 11 which was fun but you had to be dedicated to play it. I thought 12 was also great.
People complained that FFXIII was linear but FFX was pretty linear as well. I don't really have an qualms with any of the FF games, I even enjoyed FFX-2.

Nice! I played this on 360.
It was actually a refreshing "arcadey" change to a stale Tomb Raider formula... I always liked it, but felt like it would've been more appropriate to release on a handheld. Now that's coming true! BUYING!
and it's just the first from Square Enix.. more established titles are coming, yey!
Very awesome that there are so many Exclusives that are high end titles. That said they need to get the word out better and advertise these things some more or something. For example you wouldn't know Hot Pursuit was even available if you weren't looking for it.
I will definitely be picking this one up!
God of War or Prince of Persia could heat things up, really!
oh am i dreaming?
Yeah man.... Comin soon

Will defo be a tittle i wil buy.

Hopefully it will be cross-platform compatible for multiplayer like Dungeon Defenders.
Yawn, another months old iPhone port made for a quick buck. Not too exciting if you ask me.

Really? I love getting iPhone ports.
iPhone has a lot of great games, but iOS in general is too limited for them to be fully recognized. Porting iPhone games to Android removes everything that makes them limited... especially considering the Xperia PLAY - which has single-handedly changed the tides of smartphone gaming being un-ideal without buttons.
Quick ports for quick buck tend to be subpar, no matter how good the source material is. That's why I'm wary.
This is definitely great news for players who haven't played the game, I highly recommend this title, it's a great platformer with nice puzzle solving.
Only gripe is.. I have already finished the game on my computer :/

Maybe Tomb Raider, Square Enix as a brand and mindless shoot'em up games stopped being cool in the neighborhood of 2000? I bought this phone because it allows me to emulate good older games, I don't give jack **** about 99% of the "new" games (mostly poor iPhone ports or glorified casual game divertimentos ). There are still no RPG worth their salt, no absorbing plots and no strategic games. Hell, I would fawn over a Final Fantasy Tactics port even, or Crystal Chronicles...
If you want to see me hyped, bring me weird or innovative games: Katherine, Hyperdymension Neptunia, Super Magnetic Neo... I've been holding console pads for almost 20 years, and I have witnessed how companies quit the innovation race long ago.

Tomb raider is far from a mindless shooter. Just like resident evil series, over the years the need to draw more "Casual gamers" into the series has forced the developers to tone down it's puzzle solving aspects. And as for Square not being cool anymore 2 words ..... Deus Ex
Deus Ex, Batman Arkum Asylum/City (Square Enix owns Eidos), Square Enix still makes great games.

I would love to see a an Rpg with some more thought put into it. Nothing fancy graphics wise, but at least some level of consistency graphically and depth gameplay wise. Specifically what I want would be like zelda graphics meets a bethesda game. Open world (not 3d though, just top view 2d), input on dialog, quest with no specific order, real time fighting, and character / skill customization. Probably not gonna happen though. I think bethesda has spoiled me and made me expect to much from games

Lesee... we're full to the brim on RPGs... old school, new school, Japanese-style and western-styled. Abundant in MMORPGs... overloaded on every kind of Third Person/First-Person shooter known to man, living the dream life with platformers, full of options for tactical games, loaded with simple fun puzzlers, we have a decent selection of SH'MUPS already... and if I see one more goddamn ************* two-stick shooter I might just puke...
...but the one thing we just don't have is a definitive fighting game.
All I want is one definitive fighting game. Online play is an absolute must.
Even though Further Beyond Fighting didn't feel "professional" I had a lot of fun with that, and Bruce Lee surprised me in a number of ways... but I don't feel like either one of them were "definitive" fighting game experiences. I'm thinking something along the lines of how iPhone's Street Fighter IV: Volt would be if it was risen out of "the touch-screen control ghetto" for an Xperia PLAY release.

I'll admit... I've been waiting for this game for months even before it's English translation was announced. Having them suddenly announce that it'd be released today had me F5'ing the **** out of their page
I like old-school style RPGs; but playing games I've already played before via emulators is kinda depressing. I do like that KEMCO's mixing in just that right balance of old and new school so that their RPGs don't have those archaic old-school RPG issues, but also don't kill that ever-so-mysterious *charm* that era's RPGs had. Judging by the scores of their previous RPG releases (Symphony of Eternity, Eve of the Genesis, Alphadia and Grinsia) the known name behind games such as Dragon View and Shadowgate still got it!... and so far, this is even better than their last Xperia PLAY RPGs!

I have been keeping an eye out for this game since I saw the original and that it was being translated in to English. Thank you..... awesome find my friend.

What makes this one special? I admit Kemco have stepped up their game considerably, even releasing a video opening for such an old relearn as Eve of the Genesis... The tune is catchy too. However, I feel they're a bit too conservative with their games, and I really hope they release a killer app because they really try hard.
No Logseman, this game is not conservative, this game looks OLD, and as I said in another Kemco game's thread, looks like it has been made with RPG maker.
Even 2D RPG games for PSX looked far more advanced than this.
We are in the year 2012, but seems that Kemco doesn't know it.

BTW, this is far above the league of anything made in RPGmaker... I don't even understand what form of dementia would make him bring that up again seeing as the entire notion got trampled over last time he tried that. KEMCO's RPGs are thricefold the depth of anything that could be created in RPGmaker, the resolution is much higher, and the graphical detail is much higher... meaning the only thing they really have in common is that they're 2D.
I'm starting to wonder if it's just a common troll trend to call all non-SQEnix 2D RPGs "RPGmaker lookin crap".

For me....I will be enjoying it.... and for those that enjoy it show your support by buying the game, because ultimately its about revenue and if people buy the game and Kemco sees there is profit and interest we will continue to see good things come from it.

I'm actually having massive issues with both dodo and bullet asylum. The apps themselves work great, but fill the screen with so many effects it makes it actually impossible for me to see and control what's going on, in connection with fingers leads to a deadly scenario.

Yeah I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of Bullet Asylum and Donpachi becaue they flood the screen with so much effects that it's overkill. As much as I love impressive graphics and effects, I can't even see my character(s) because they are being overshadowed by explosions and other effects.

That's kinda the function of those games though. What's nice about DODO is that you can control the ship from the negative space at the bottom of the screen. That way, you don't have your finger in the middle of things. I also tend to use the thumbsticks for Bullet Asylum so my view isn't obstructed.

Got a link to a reseller of the thumbsticks? I couldn't find anything that supports wp7. Or that at least mentions it.

Sorry, I was referring to the thumbstick control option within the game itself. You can choose between touch/drag or thumb controls.
My top 5 are:
1. Tentacles
2. The Harvest
3. Plants vs. Zombies
4. King of the Sea
5. Words By Post
Also, vNESLight is a very good NES emulator and that opens you up to lots of classics.
I think that depends on each one of you. For me the best games are Poker King Online, Bug Village, Full House Poker, Fragger ( a lot better than angry birds, which I own and like ), Breeze and sudoku like someone already mentioned, Minesweeper (which I never pass a level but still its fun xD) and chickens can't fly. If there is a cool multiplayer game feel free to post it's name
Best Regards
