An interesting month that starts out slow really unless you like niche Japanese games which I do but lack of PS3 means not for me also with what’s at the end of the month I doubt I would even look at them if I had a PS3 still also ports etc up in till the 20th.

But if you do have a PS3 maybe checkout Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters as it’s a visual novel from the guys that did Deadly Premonition actually the VITA version might be better for that game.

Moving on to stuff I’m actually getting which is Toad Amiibo, Mario Party 10 with Mario Amiibo edition, Final Fantasy Type-0HD  collector’s edition which is a HD release that makes  a bit of sense, that’s all on the 20th.

ReEvil Rev 2 does look good but seems to be using a similar plot of Code Veronicas which Claire also S.T.A.R.S in but not sure how ReEvil will translate to an episodic game but on the 20th is the complete series (I guess that what you’ll call it), so might know a bit more when Ep 1 comes out end of February on digital store fronts, so it’s a wait and see as I’ve been burned to many times from Capcom not just ReEvil.

Then we get to the 27th with the first real big Triple-A game of the year and of the PS4 life Bloodborne which I’m getting the nightmare edition.

Borderlands looks like a great package and is something I would like to play especially co-op but I think with number 1 & 2 back on PS360 I’m going to be late to the party as I’ll still likely be playing FFT0HD and just about to start Bloodborne.

Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stones more likely is good as well but time and money means it’s not for me also Toukiden Kiwami is a monster hunter like game, so might be okay if you want one of them on a Sony platform.

The Resident Evil Revelations 2 one really irritates me. The first game started on the 3DS, sold best on the Wii U and nowhere to be seen on a Nintendo console. Yet it is on the PS3 and 360! I may well boycott the game as a matter of principle, or at most, very cheap, probably used, much later. What happened with Capcom and Nintendo on this?

The Hyperdimension Neptunia games make my skin crawl. There's room for a good dramatisation of the Console War in a videogame: that is not it.

No it didn't it sold best on 3DS 820k, then 710k on PS3, then 230k on 360, then 130k on Wii U, then 030k on PC.

I gather this time has been made for consoles in mind hence why no 3DS version but the PS3 version will be ported to the VITA at some-point, so a New 3DS exclusive version might not be out of the question in terms of the system running it but still not happening.

Also what's Nintendo's stance on Episodic games on the eShop.

Sorry, I did mean to type 3DS, but keep in mind with the user base of the Wii U at the time, it sold pretty well compared to the 360, also keeping in mind, many 3DS owners have a Wii U and likely didn't want to get it again (I got both). There just isn't an excuse not to include the Wii U.

Anyway I might get Borderlands and theatrythm dragon quest.

Bloodborne for me.

Wait - I don't have a PS4... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The one and only game I will be buying is Bloodborne.

Now that may just be a perfect reason to get a ps4.

This month coming I will mostly be purchasing:

1) A Toad amiibo. This is a must.

2) Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stones: Thunderflash. This is also a must. My current 3DS goal is to beat Tales Of The Abyss so that I've got something to trade in for it.

This month coming I will also be keeping an eye on:

1) Theatrhythm Dragon Quest. I prefer Dragon Quest to Final Fantasy, as a player, although FF has much more iconic music, of course. Nonetheless, if TDQ came westward, it would be bought.

Absolutely nothing this month, if I had a ps4 I'd be snapping up Final Fantasy Type-0. But I don't, so that's a ultimately irrelevant point.

And Sony even has this for you

Naff all for me this month, too. Am I the only one who's at least glad to see Cooking Mama making a return, though?

As for what I'll be getting - had GTAV preordered for ages... here's hoping it's not delayed again.

Bad news, Jay:

GTAV PC delayed

...goddammit.

Spoiler:

I never even noticed. Now I feel doubly stupid.

Bladestorm has a slight delay to March 20th, so that's been sent to die.

And Project Cars has been delayed again but only till April, will the Wii U version ever see the light of day at this rate.

A EU Game
29th March Legend of Kay for PS4, WiiU, PC

Hotline Miami 2 is also out March 10th
