In this trailer you can see some of the nameless that were described in Famitsu. There is also a few surprises you will see in this trailer when you watch it. Sadly, the trailer is all anime and no gameplay. Still a cool trailer though.
The screenshots for the new Valkyria Chronicles 3 have come out and some of them are gameplay. Not the above image, no. The screens are direct feed from the screens that appeared in the Famitsu scans.
The gameplay screens look OK, it is not PS3 game that is for sure. It isn’t the best looking PSP game either. I guess we will have to see how it plays, so far the second game is excellent.
SEGA has confirmed the official release date for Valkyria Chronicles 3, it will come out on January 27th, both on retail (¥6,279) and digital download (¥5,660).
The full name of the game is Valkyria Chronicles 3: Unrecorded Chronicles, the game will have an all new cast of characters, just like the part 2. The game will also take place in 1935, the same time as the first game.
Yakuza’s first game into portable gaming gets reviewed by Famitsu? All the Yakuza games have gotten high ratings, did Black Panther: New Yakuza Chapter go down the same path?
Surprisingly, yes it did. Famitsu rated it 9’s down the board (9/9/9/9), not perfect but pretty damn close. Now we will see what they think of the upcoming Yakuza zombie game.

It seems that the upcoming Valkyria Chronicles 3 is real and its coming to PSP. The game appears in the latest issue of Famitsu, under the PSP section.
We are unable to get scans of the feature, since NeoGAF forbids scans of actual magazine content (table of contents is OK). We should be learning more about the game come TGS.

Happy gaming!
Here is the music video for Muppet by Rize. The music video has the band playing in a cage, a main theme in Black Panther: New Yakuza Chapter. You know why? Well, its because this song is the opening theme song for that game.
If you watch the video, there are clips of the game in there, this is the music video that came with the Limited Edition PSP bundle.
Next issue of Dengeki Playstation promises a bonus Valkyria Chronicles booklet. Could this be SEGA already starting their advertising tanks for the next installment of their awesome franchise?
Not to mention this is on the Playstation version of their magazine, basically securing it for either PSP or PS3. I hope it comes out on PS3.

SEGA has let their ‘official’ line up out of the bag, of course, they have a surprise or two they don’t want to reveal yet. This is their ‘expect to be there’ and playable games.
Of course they will most likely have a new Phantasy Star related product (anniversary game?) and for sure the new Yakuza PS3 game.

4Gamer has the link to download the upcoming Black Panther: Yakuza New Chapter demo. The demo clocks in at 192mb and is obviously all in Japanese.
You don’t need a PSN account, just go here and scroll down till you see what you see above. Click that button, download and enjoy.
Somewhere deep in this Japanese madness is ingame footage of Yakuza Black Panther for the PSP.
One clip shows off a two player battle mode that looks a lot like a fighting game and another shows off one of the hostesses doing her thing. The graphics look really good for a PSP game, check it out!
SEGA will be airing a 11 part TV show adaptation of its Yakuza PSP game and will have the same name as the game, “Black Panther: New Yakuza Chapter.” The show will air after K-On, a anime that SEGA is turning into a PSP game.
The show will begin airing on October 5th and after its run it will be available on the Playstation Network to rent. Most likely Japan only.
If that was not enough there will also be a Manga adaptation drawn by Yukai Asada. SEGA calls the Manga “Kurohyou,” on their press release. The series will start being serialized on September 18th via Weekly Young Magazine (Issue 42).

The game is hitting Japanese store shelves on December 2nd for ¥6,279 ($74).
If you pre-order it you get a pirate fan disc that will include a soundtrack with song samples, voice collection, PC and PSP wallpapers, and a high resolution video of the game’s opening cinematic. Sorry, no Disney movie starring Johnny Depp.
This is the part in the article where I write “This is a fake Shining game, this is a fake Shining game.”

Just like I predicted before, Phantasy Star Portable 2: Infinity is going to be an updated version of Phantasy Star Portable 2. The new game will have a extended story that will introduce a new character named Nagisa. She is part of the new race called Dyunmans, the game’s fifth selectable race.
Every race is going to be getting new outfits in the upcoming expansion. SEGA is also introducing the character reincarnation system, it will let players reset their character’s level and build up other stats. The game will also feature ‘Infinity Mode’, a harder difficultly settling.
Infinity will also have a visual lobby, cell phone style text input system, screenshot utility, and a tag mode mission code sharing thing. It says that there will be about 1.5x more content than Phantasy Star Portable 2. Damn, just bring this west and cancel PSP2!
