Getting the PS4 Itch...



Since it's launch a little over a year ago, there hasn't been any games released for the Playstation 4 that have piqued my interest.  While I do admit there are some good games on the system, my tastes have changed in the past few years so none of them appeal to me anymore.

I do believe that is about to change though!  As I write this, there are a handful of games announced that I am very interested in and will probably result in me buying this system in the near future.

These are the games that I want:

(Some of these may be on the NSFW side)


Omega Quintet



From the YouTube description:  The world is ending and humanity’s only hope is a singing idol group! In this hybrid RPG/idol simulation, five idols wield Sound Weapons against the dark forces of the world. Build up an arsenal of attacks, get the crowd’s pulse racing with extraordinary skills, and then get them on their feet with your own choreographed idol performance!

This game is made by Compile Heart's Galapagos RPG Unit which also created Fairy Fencer F which I thoroughly enjoyed.  This game comes to North American on April 28.

Onechanbara Z2:  Chaos



The Onechanbara series takes everything great about 'B movies' and brings them to the world of video games.  There's plenty of blood, gore, action, humor, and girls in sexy outfits.  The only Onechanbara game I've played is Onechanbara:  Bikini Samurai Squad on Xbox 360 and it was a blast!

These are budget games so anyone looking for a serious game should look elsewhere, but if you know what you are getting in to, you will have a ball!  This game will also be the first to feature a full English dub.  It comes to North America on June 30.

Gal*Gun:  Double Peace


I'm pretty sure this game won't get localized since the first one didn't but luckily you don't need to be fluent in Japanese to enjoy it.  The first Gal*Gun was an on-rails shooter type game where you play as a guy who gets hit with cupid's arrow which causes all the girls in your school to come after you.  You must fend them off to pursue one of the several love interests in the game.  It is another silly game that is just fun to play.

You can find out more about the sequel here.

Natsuiro High School



This open world game will also likely never be released state-side.  It seems that you play as a guy who goes about his daily routine in school and the photography club and you will be given quests to complete and various ending depending on which quests you do.  There also seems to be a stealth aspect when taking risque pictures and the cops will arrest you if you get caught.

This game comes out on June 4.

A couple of these games will be available for other platforms (Vita or PS3), but since they are coming to PS4, I might as well use them as more reasons to get one!

There will probably be other games to come out or be announced soon, but these four have me ready to take the plunge and get the PS4 as soon as they are released!
