Mostly eroge
Little Busters! Ecstasy is going to be 2 DVDs and the recommended disk space is now 5gb, up from 3.5gb in the original.
Gamepot’s Pangya collaboration event with Hatsune Miku was a new song and a new in-game Hatsune Miku costume. Though it sounds like there is still more to the collaboration that will be revealed on the 22nd of May when it officially launches.
The Xuse guys have formed Eternal and announced their first game after moving to Will. The other Xuse scenario writer has released a doujin game. Still waiting for Xuse to announce that they’re closing…
Sekai de ichiban NG na koi took only 40 days to make. Basically only the scenario was done on September 20th when they started the project, and they aimed to complete it by 22nd November. They actually needed to hire 9 other colouring guys to keep up with the pace that the artist was producing the art at.

5GB of…what?
Where are my 0s and 1s being used for here?
This isn’t School Days, this isn’t a FPS!
This is Key!

VA uncompressed files and maybe BGM in 44, 128 or 36 Hz WAV version? :p

Hopefully that’s 2 DVDs worth of 1600×1200+ art. Eroge have been producing pathetic 800×600 games for far too long.

Wallpapers, drama bonus maybe, but I highly doubt this kind of resolution will be used for BG and char sprite. In your classic ADV game 10% is data file, 10% is BG and the rest is VActing

Looks like Xuse’ll try and milk the Eien no Aselia franchise by releasing a Seinarukana Special Fandisk. Probably an attempt to pick up sales?

Wow hahaha! And Takase is still named as the project planner!? I wonder if they dug up an old project plan that he made before he left Xuse since he isn’t listed as the scenario writer anymore.

And people were giving To Heart 2 AD a bad time… This game is looking more and more like the X-rated To Heart 2 every day.
I caught the NG na Koi news over at FiRSTRoN, it was a good read. Maybe there’s something to be said for quick brainstorming like that after all. I ~really~ need to pick this up…
