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

I have the game for the 360 and it's really fun, though I probably won't get it for the Play.
Looks awesome, played alot of tomb raider back in the days. I think it's starting to spread like rings in the water that this device is fantalastic
Will defo be a tittle i wil buy.
Regards Dousan...
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.
Lol how could you not be excited about a game that received almost universally positive feedback coming to a device that is perfectly tailored for it? Hello, touchpads!
Why did you even buy this phone if something like this doesn't seem remotely cool?

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 :/
kershner25, Deoxlar, TLRtheory for the win!

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.

If you haven't seen it yet, Further Beyond Fighting is now officially Xperia PLAY Optimized.
I remember playing this on iOS... and it was kind of a wreck... kinda >_>.
Looking at the reviews on both the iOS and Android versions, it's clear that "touch-screen" and "fighting game" just don't belong in the same sentence... this game got rated a lot lower than it deserves just from that.
Swapping between touch and physical controls, it's a MASSIVE difference.
Now it's all smooth-as-butter performance, WITH controls that respond

I had Street Fighter IV Volt on my 4th Gen iPod Touch... Capcom did alright with the limitations they had to work with, but compared to buttons it still sucked ass.
I'm hoping Capcom will release SFIV Volt on Xperia PLAY too so I can play it for real.
has very bad reviews.. bruce lee is even better despite its insane difficulty.. (just the memorize-all-combos part though)

Of course it does... people been playing it with horrible touch-controls.
Lol if I had to play a fighter with touch-controls, I'd give it a very bad rating too. It's not perfect, of course, but after playing with touch controls then getting a substantially more responsive experience on Xperia PLAY, this feels like a brand new game. This is why Xperia PLAY kicks every other smartphone's ass at gaming.
Bad reviews because of it being poorly polished, that is. Judging from the game's screenies and video, it looks mediocre. Half-cooked. That's why.
I'm kinda addicted now.. I just love fighting games.. Eventhough I can't jump, no touch pad support, no good combo, only few characters.. but i'm sure this will not take that long because of those issues..

I doubt anything will beat Tekken 3 to be honest.
This doesn't look good at all.
No, this game looks terrible. I mean if this game had better gameplay and graphics then it would be worth it. It seems like a bad game from a fly by night vaporware dev. No offense to anyone who enjoys this game.
Exactly. Nailed it.
Hey There!

Now that's what I like to see from a dev.
I think its great that you are listening and participating through the Xda community. I wonder is or was there ever a demo release of the title? It seems that a round or two of the game would open the flood gates for areas of oppurtunites.

Thanks for dropping by here. We appreciate it.. We are expecting some great combos, characters are able to jump, new unlockable characters, etc. to your next update.. I dunno what are those preferred graphics of Eros but for me graphics is great, I love to see their wounds and bruises..
I'll just leave this here.

Currently, we have no demo release. But we had some discussions going around regarding a free-to-play version. We will keep you updated when there will be a release.

IMO a demo would be a better idea than a "free to play" version, I tend to stay away from free to play games or free games with in app purchases. As these tend to alway run in the background, and flood your notification bar with "special offers" Gun bros by glu is a prime example of this
I really loved playing Gun Bros but uninstalled for that very reason.
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 hate to remove Galaxy Hero from my website's featured game spot, but Aeon Avenger's in town!
Google Play Link: AEON AVENGER

I can always count on you to find kickass JRPGs that just appeared on Google Play. Much thanks.

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.
Bought it.......
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.
Yeah it looks a little old, but looks are not everything. I for one am glad the Kemco is making these RPGs and not only that makiung them compatible with our devices....so Kemco..... THANK YOU!!

I was actually asking about gameplay. 2D graphics ate not an issue for me if they're well bundled with a good story. That's where I don't want them to be conservative.

Ditto.
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".

Myself and most ohers dont care for trolls, but still point being Kemco is awesome for making these games available to the masses, and I do hope they bring there other Japanese rpg games to the masses as well..... people can troll all they want, People will enjoy it or not. 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.
It's on the Play Store!
...definitely a wonderful game, and known as a classic... but I think I'll keep my sanity for now
Everyone else, have fun!
lol beat me to it! The new HD graphics are a nice touch, never cared too much for this game on the pc so I figured I'd give it a fair shake.

I loved this game as a kid, had it on the megadrive, always got stuck on CLLD
I don't see the point of this being expensive though, it's not a long game, graphics although remastered are still blocky (In relation to other mega-drive/pc/amiga games) and they could have included the sequel released for sega cd with it.
Hi. My first post on here, but trust me, i was stalking this site for two years now.
Hello everyone, and lets get it straight. When I've noticed Another World title, i couldn't believe it, but here we are. The game that changed my childhood forever. Now on Android.
Ace! Next on the wish list - Flashback
Hi guys,
Thought this might interest you...
Here are some higher quality Kemco games on Google Play that have been released natively but will (hopefully soon) be finding an English language release.
Firstly RPG Alphadia Genesis:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kemco.execreate.alphadiagenesis
Second (and one that I am looking forward to) is Soul of Deva:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kemco.hitpoint.saiyugi
They both look great and better yet they are both XPERIA PLAY OPTIMISED!
There are actually quite a few kemco games that are not available outside of Japan that are XPO. Alphadia Genesis wont be out until either this month or next month. Sould Deva, presently has no plans of coming to the world, although Kemco has told me that before and some games have come out.... Like the recent Crimson Wolf and Destiny Fantasia. Aside from a few 95% of Kemco games released are XPO.

Sorry, somehow I missed the part about Alphadia Genesis being XPO.. I wrote my reply at 3am when I couldnt sleep.
This will mark the first Alphadia game to be XPO.... that is awesome!
So I have never played any of kemco's games. I have some questions. Should i play them in any order? If not which one would you recommend playing first? Should i try RPG Machine Knight first just to see if i like there games since it is free? Thanks in advance for the help.:good:
Sorry, have been at work all day and couldn't respond to any of your posts.
Ozzmanj, thanks for the links. I already have Fortuna Magus and a few others.
Yep TLRtheory, Alphadia Genesis really is XPO! Sweet huh!
Insane5125, Machine knight is a great place to start. It has really well fleshed out characters. KEMCO games have an old school charm to them that I think you'll enjoy.

Thanks for the response. I think I'll definitely try it out. Also one last question I saw that some of the games you play as multiple characters like Final Fantasy. Is this all Kemco games or do they mix it up?

It depends on the game. But a fair few of the Kemco games have you playing as different characters at different points in the story. I'm currently playing Fortuna Magus and I'm really enjoying that element of thew game. Have fun!

I have to say I am a huge fan of the Kemco games. I have paid for about 6 games lately in the last year where I have not had a chance to play them yet. But I buy them and leave feedback thanking Kemco for continuing to support the Xperia PLAY. I would hope that they see the comments and be more inclined to continue to do so.
