Congrats guys. Overall, I know I'm harsh sometimes in my criticism, but it's only 'cause I care. No matter what I think of the games themselves sometimes, the localizations are never less than stellar. Your hard work should be recognized more often than it is. Bravo.

^ Well, I TRY to be positive...I guess it's just not often in my nature. I assume the worst until proven otherwise.

Ah well, someone's gotta do it.

I almost forgot, congrats to Atlus for the award. They definitely deserve it, and this year in my opinion is looking to continue that.

I didn't play many Atlus published games in 2008. I think just Baroque and Luminous Arc 2.

I played too many. Eternal Poison, Baroque, P4, Trauma Center 2, Yggdra Union PSP, Etrian Odyssey 2... yeah, Atlus owned this year, hands down.

You know, I wonder if I'm really missing out as an SRPG fan on Eternal Poison...

Last year was actually really lacking in titles for me, the only games I did manage to be interested enough to buy are EO2 and P4. But congratulations either way.

Storywise, it's very interesting.

Gameplay.... slow paced, but it has some interesting features, like capturing enemies and using them as either party members or sacrifices for new items and skills.

I can see Atlus taking this for 2009. Developers and publishers are laying off people left and right, and some aren't going to make it through this recession, yet Atlus manages to announce a new game almost every week.

Well Done Atlus you deserved it.

Very cool! Part of it is taking chances, I think. In addition to solid lines like SMT, Atlus is obviously willing to look at all those games that didn't come over for the DS and PS2 from Japan and give them a second chance. Now's the perfect time for that sorta strategy!

I was about to say who cares, RPG Gamer sucks, but I remembered it's RPG Land I hate, not Gamer. So...congrats!

I bought a single ATLUS game this year(UtK2), mainly because I do not play strategy games, and ATLUS has tons of those, but still. They had so many games this year, it's no surprise they got the award.

Pretty dang awesome. My first Atlus game was Robopon for the GB ages ago and I've stuck with them since (Whether meaning to or not who knows? For whatever reason they seem to only publish games I'm interested in).

LOL. I forgot about your "war" with RPG Land. Are you still out to get them?

#### ya. Of course, I'm still banned. I copied the initial post with them that got me banned, so every once-in-a-while I use a proxy, go back and re-post the same exact thing. They delete it pretty quickly.

^Wait, what happened?

Are these the same monkeys that made the foolish comments regarding the IS patch?
Vincent Alexander
03-14-2009, 12:16 PM
Yep, that is it. I don't know why it pissed me off so much, but it did. It still amazes me the size of their balls to make such a claim.

I don't blame you at all man. When I read their comments during that situation, I was pretty irritated. They looked completely idiotic before and after the incident.

^ I sometimes think that's there intention. They can only get attention by being "controversial" because they have nothing else to bring to the plate that isn't done better elsewhere.

Congratulations ATLUS! They do deserve those kind of acknowledgments! Just keep up the good and excellent work, I'm 100% sure that ATLUS will keep growing bigger and bigger and they'll will get a bunch of new fans a long the way!

Yay, it's awesome that Atlus is getting the recognition they deserve for being the best freaking publisher out there. Seriously, there were just too many awesome games this year, I've barely been able to start playing them all (darn you, my evil, evil schedule!). Plus, I'm trying to catch up on older Atlus games too, like Etrian Odyssey, Trauma Center, and Digital Devil Saga.

Plus, there are already at least two Atlus games this year that I want...

P. S. Atlus, please keep releasing games for PS2! I'm glad to see Devil Summoner coming out, keep up the awesomeness!
