by the way, I heard Dengeki is going to close down by the end of January, no more Dengeki after that

Just terrible. It's like everything good is going away.

How so? Phantom Brave got great scores. If only every week great games like that would be released! Interesting that they have decided to release it on Xbox as well.

[Escaflowne2001]

Yeah I shocked about that too, huh? must be the only Japanese style RPG on the XB.

[Icarus4578]

You missed what I was aiming at Seska. Quote - "By the way, I heard Dengeki is going to close down by the end of January, no more Dengeki after that."

As discussed at gaming-age forums, it's only one line of Dengeki that's folding. Other series, like Dengeki PS2, will still be around.

[baratus]

None of those games gets my attention.

Eh?How come Dorimaga is the only one who reviewed two version of Phantom Brave?. Damn I must have missed something, but when was a Xbox version of Phantom Brave announced? Typo right? If that is not the case, will the Xbox version come out in Spring 2004 at the same time as the PS2 version for the US market?!

[IoriYagami n8]

Hehe, go Pokemon!

Out of curiosity, which line of Dengeki is shutting down?

[Rubeus]

I think it is the Dengeki Games, which aims for multiplatforms. Only Dengeki PS, Dengeki PS2 (with bonus DVDs each issue) and Dengeki GameCube remain.

[Dead Account 01]

Typo. Small companies like Nippon Ichi don't have money to throw away like that.

What about Dengeki-Ou? Thats probably the multiplatform one you mention. We used to get it every montha at the office when I was with Square, we used to call it the montly porn magazine cause it had a HUGE porn section in the middle about H-games for the PC.

[Nindalf]

Aren't you a rebel, Seska.

And you a bitter turnip that has been blacklisted. We all bear our cross, dont we?
