Agarest Senki (PS3 game) coming to the UK

I noticed "Agarest: Generations Of War" up for preorder on GAME (UK retailer) for only £24.99 - that's like a budget title, in PS3 terms. The full price for videogames has been steadily rising over the last few months so normal RRP for a retail PS3 game is about twice that. T_T

It's Agarest Senki, and is going to be published by Ghostlight, subsidiary company of Midas Entertainment. The page for this game on their website doesn't work yet. They have a press release available to read, if you want a look.

As far as I know, this is the only release outside of Japan that the game is getting. Not that it really matters; the PS3 is region free after all.

I wonder if you will still be labelled a hikkikomori for getting the game's platinum trophy.

I don't have high expectations for the game because it's an Idea Factory game, so it's probably best placed as a budget title. Still, SRPG with dating sim elements is probably worth a look...

It comes out in about a month's time.
