Graham Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Given that most of us already have all the anime in one form or another, missing a limited UMD with the OPs & EDs is no big loss IMO. The SK interview will probably show up fansubbed on BT sooner or later. Me, I'll be sticking with the standard version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 More interested to know if the new article gives more detail on Macross II, like is it a full campaign? And will we get more than just the 2 mecha shown so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGemini Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 New info on the game. There's going to be a limited edition of the game, it's already listed on play-asia. Seems like it's an extra UMD with OP and ED of the Macross shows and an interview with Kawamori. http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9f-77-...ss-70-3iiz.html scan of the famitsu article from srwwordpress. can anyone translate the little blurb about the limited edition? http://superrobotwar.files.wordpress.com/2...fa0805_muf3.jpg Not sure if its worth it for those with non-japanese PSPs because of the region lock on movies. sad face.... tear.... sparkle.... So, we have a release date: October 1st. And it's confirmed in Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%90%E3%83%B3...u-wl_item-added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikuro Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 October 1st seems to be just a little on the "It could be on this day" like if they were to say the 31st. But works for me, bring it on, I'll preorder it soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemax151 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 If it's like any downloadable game/content on PSN, the games should be tied to your account and can be downloaded multiple (limited ) times.Nope sorry unfortunately I already had a huge issue when one of Sony's official firmware updates bricked my PS3. They replaced it with a refurb for free but I had to call and hound them to reset the PSN stuff because it's all tied to the serials or whatever of the consoles.

It's actually tied to your PSN account, but if you tried to use the same hard drive (i.e. took hard drive from original machine and stuck it directly into new PS3), it might not have worked. You could have downloaded it again off of your PSN account's download list, or supposedly, there's a way to get into the PS3's recovery menu and reset the file to work with your new gid (Edit: I don't know much about this method; I just read it off of a PS3 forum somewhere; hadn't tried to follow the directions myself).

An item indispensible to fans! I pre-ordered the limited edition as soon as it was posted here that it was available. Thanks! Do you guys reckon there'll be a pre-order bonus as well? In fact, was there a pre-order bonus for the last game? I got nothing, but I heard that there might have been a book (not sure if that's true though)? Also, there were some other MUF scans from that particular issue of Famitsu. My Japanese isn't that good so perhaps there's more information in those pages, but the first page seems to offer a track listing (although I'm not sure if it's complete) as well as some shots of Max and Millia's VF-9s from M3 (that still blows my mind): http://superrobotwar.files.wordpress.com/2...fa0805_muf1.jpg and the second page has some pictures of Battle 7 and the VB-6 Koenig (Konig?) Monster in its three modes: http://superrobotwar.files.wordpress.com/2...fa0805_muf2.jpg Pretty cool stuff, and I can not wait for this game!

D.D. Ivanov Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Oh, bull. The Macross II opening is only an instrumental? That BETTER not be a nearly complete list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) Slightly miffed that Dynamite Explosion is the only new Macross 7 song they added this time, while there's craploads of Frontier tracks. And where are the Macross Zero songs? I'm sure they'll be there, the whole Birdman battle would be pointless otherwise. However.... The MUF theme song, "Burning Fire"?? That sounds really interesting, and Basara-like! Edited August 12, 2009 by Renato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I turned the whole thing in so no I didn't use the same hard drive or even a spare I backed up. I just copied my save files to a thumb drive. Supposedly you have to deauthorize the console (which I did) or the account history stays with the console. Still I had problems and I enjoy having little or no hassle in my life so I'll take my zero on the PSP Go. Especially considering there's STILL no second analog stick. The track listing is highly disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Sweet, hopefully this game will have all Macross music, and no trademark vs music, not that I disliek the vs music, but it really has no place in a Macross game. I also hope that is only a preliminary track listing, for one thing you can't have a Dynamite campaign with Angel Voice, that's just inane!

Renato Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Argh, I pre-ordered the damn thing. Let's all laugh when I get the game in my hands but end up not being able to play it. Graham: Yeah, technically I got married in March. I think my honeymoon clashes with the Macross Crossover concert, the one with all the singers in it, which is a shame. Not that I could've gotten tickets anyway. Originally my wedding was scheduled to be on November 21st, and then that was announced to be the date of release of the Frontier movie!

If that's the case, I'd probably just wait for a used copy. However, isn't there the chance that the box of the limited edition houses everything including a regular copy of the game? You may not need to buy two. Of course my Japanese is bad so they may have said otherwise in those Famitsu scans.

This is just too cool for school. As for my wedding, I'm only legally married, the wedding itself will be later this year. And no, she doesn't look like Minmay, Ranka, Myung, Ishtar, Bobby, Alto, Brera, Michel or any of the other Macross females. PM'd you about plans to meet up in March.

Keith Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 http://www.4gamer.net/games/094/G009441/20...ot.html?num=048 Interesting, who are these support characters next to Ishtar, they don't look like anyone in the Macross universe I've seen before, though the mail kinda looks like a Macross II era "emulated" Zentradi soldier. Battle Galaxy - Confirmed! Grace - Confirmed!! (I can't wait to set up a match between Grace & Sharon) Improved map/mecha graphics - Confirmed There's also an interesting mention about Chronicle Mode, from the machine translation, looks like it'll be something similar too, but in addition to the EX missions, where you play as story characters in specific story scenario's. The shop is still a mystery, but looks like Chronicle Mode has something to do with unlocking scene stills/videos? The missile defense thing looks like it has a limit. Not sure if it's a limit of the total round, or just each technique, but there's a second counter for it on the hud. And the new Rescue option seems interesting, you can help out downed comrades, but at the cost of being defenseless when you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renato Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 (edited) According to that article, that song list is the complete list... I'm not really satisfied until I get at least Angel Voice, and Arkan and HOROBI NO UTA cannot be omitted. Fingers crossed... I was trying to make some sense of this whole ANTI thing. Apparently, the numbers in the corner are how many seconds you have to shoot down the missiles on your tail. It seems the ones you manage to take out are recorded as "breaks". As for "Chronicle Mode"... They haven't mentioned any other features to the campaign mode, so does this mean that this is just one big game now where you have to go through everything chronologically? Also, it is supposed to be harder now because you cannot fly out with a wingman in this mode, apparently it's just you on your own.. I guess that's where Minmay and Ishtar etc. come in, though. As for the images, it appears that before every mission you get background info to the current mission just before it begins. The rescue thing is interesting, though. Apparently you can do it in multiplayer games, too. EDIT: Wait a second, VOICES isn't in the song list?? Whoa, whoa,who-ho-ho... hold on a second there, fella...

Keith Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I'd be extremely surprised if that was the full song list, realy, Angel Voice is a gimmie, even if just instrumental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
