News: Video Game Releases

This is where we put out some info about the games we think are going to be somewhere between decent and awesome that release today or later this week.  Typically we skip over the heavy hitters.  Sorry Call of Duty, but 8 million people usually already know about your release date.

Persona 4 Arena – 360/PS3

Buy on Amazon

Developed by Arc System Works (BlazBlue, Guilty Gear) and published by Atlus (Persona, Shin Megami Tensei).  This is the anime style 2D fighter based on everyone’s (if you aren’t everyone then yes this is a threat) favorite school going, demon hunting JRPG series Persona.  Featuring characters from Persona 3 and 4, the story mode is allegedly 40 h0urs long (so probably 5-7 hours per character if you win the first time).  The game looks pretty slick and allegedly doesn’t have any moves harder than a half circle.  Color me excited.
