Why SCEA Should Have Published Demon’s Souls in North America

Gamer — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 02:07:44 +0000

The relatively little known publisher named Atlus posted big profits for the first half of their fiscal year. They made $378 million yen ( around $4.15m usd ) which is up 236.1% when compared to the same period last year. The company’s North American branch is credited for generating the most profit. That’s all thanks to Atlus publishing the PS3 exclusive Demon’s Souls in North America. After becoming one of the fastest selling imported games from Japan last year, Demon’s Souls went on to sell over 150,000 copies in it’s first month alone when Atlus brought it to North America. It quickly sold out in many areas across the country. Demon’s Souls became the sleeper hit of 2009 with little-to-no advertising backing the new IP. GameSpot crowned the niche role-playing game 4 awards last year which were; Overall Game of the Year,Best PS3 game,Best Role-Playing game and Best Original Game Mechanic (for the online integration).Game Trailers award it Best RPG and Best New Intellectual Property while RPGFan awarded it Best RPG for the PS3 and Best Console Action-RPG. IGN also awarded the game Best RPG for the PS3. PC World awarded it Game of the Year ( and the game isn’t even for the PC). RPGamer awarded Demon’s Souls RPG of the Year 2009, including Best Graphics and Best PS3 RPG. Why SCEA passed on publishing Demon’s Souls is any one’s guess but right now,I’m sure Atlus is glad they did.

A New Marathon Trademark? What’s That Pfhor? [Fps]

Gamer — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 01:30:00 +0000

One week ago Bungie filed a new trademark application for Marathon , the FPS superstar of Mac gaming’s brief apogee during the mid- to late-1990s. There are few details beyond that but the paperwork’s enough to stoke fantasies of a reboot. More »

Gamespot Midnight Launch for God of War 3 | Community Live Blog

Gamer — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:49:44 +0000

If you haven’t been to a midnight launch at Gamespot before. Here is how it works. They usually close at 9 pm, then they open the doors up again at 10 pm to hand out numbered tickets. So you want to get there early for that part. Then you can come back closer to midnight when they open the doors again. At that time they call out the numbered tickets, so don’t be late. I’m sure others are holding midnight launches as well. Check with your local retailer. I’ve setup a Live Blog for those of us waiting outside in the cold tonight. Should help the time go by faster. You can access the Live Blog from your mobile phone too. Invite URL’s after the jump. Live Blog Invite URL | Email your photos, video, audio to this email and it will show up in the Live Blog!
