Website: http://gachitora.com/ Demo: http://gachitora.com/demo/gachitora_trial.zip Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPQbBnNtOIk Well today a demo went up for spikes new PSP game "GachiTora! Abarenbou Kyoushi in High School". The game is from the team who made the Kenka Bancho series for PS2/PSP. I've only got to put 10 mins into the demo but so far this game is great with a lot of style. While I do feel the fighting mechanics are very "Kenka Bancho" and no where as good as Yakuza Portable, I feel the rest of the demo is soo much better then Yakuza Portable. If you liked either game you really should give the demo a shot. Definitely going to have to import this one next month. Too bad it probably won't get localized. Part probably because KB3 didn't seem to be a big hit (even with atlus behind it) and the whole freeing of their soul (aka the naked part in the trailer, but they probably could make some changes to make it more ok in the west). -edit- Oh small thing I forgot to mention. Neat little thing they put in the game. During the load screen, which happen to be a chalk board with something on it, you can move the eraser around with the analog stick and wipe off what's on the board. =P
oh wow, I just played through the demo twice and man this game is seriously awesome. I've gotten a little more use to the combat and feel it holds up pretty well, but still shy of being as polished as Yakuza Portable. The demo has a few mini games in it (fishing, pitching, photo & speed the card game). All of them actually play pretty well with photo mode (of a cafe girl dressed in a maids outfit) actually saving the shots to your memory stick. Also pretty funny is the game has fastfoward mode like Kenka Bancho but this time it speeds up the voices as well which can be pretty humorous at times. =P Definitely getting this game next month. XD
