The idolm@ster 2 is being brought to PS3, anyone planning on importing it? I know I am when it's financially in my favor

[blake307]

That's pretty awesome! I might import it but it depends on whether I can afford it or not.

[Cael K.]

Heh, heh...

Hah, hah! Oh, this is good.

And I'm not laughing because I think this is false, either.

>hyper mode for expert players

cause everyone knows vesperia is too easy, they should get doubled base stats

I am sitting here holding onto everything to not run around squeeing like a fangirl.

this is wonderful news. I don't need to drop 400-500$ on the console and game anymore. even if I have to come home to play the game (since I'd need to do some SERIOUS begging to bring it with me to college), I will be dropping money on this and regretting nothing. I'm so excited!

THERE IS A GOD. ADKJASDAJLKHJEKAEKJEKAJOA. *spazzes* D:
I'm trying to keep in control of myself so I don't go run into a wall now.

[Mind M@ster]

Still a rumor, but we'll find out in a few days.

Honestly, this doesn't affect me in the slightest.

LOLWAT

It finally goes to PS3 now?
I'd probably be more interested if it were the first game + L4U on the same disk...  Although this is doable considering the amount of content in the rumor, and makes the game more accessible to people in the west.

I guess the sky's the limit now for Im@s.

(end rumor)

[Rihsa]

Will buy if true. I'm thankful for the fact the PS3 isn't region locked. <3

[Asrialterra]

Gravure4You! Sounds awesome.

I hesitated on buying iM@S 2 for quite a while, and the possibility of it being ported to the PS3 was one of my main reasons.  Once I got my PS3, I decided to snatch iM@S 2 while it was on sale on AmiAmi.  At that point, I trusted their word on iM@S not receiving a PS3 port.

Ha!  I should really learn not to trust Namco on that.

...What I hate the most is that I'm going to buy it anyways.

I hate myself.

[Katsuyuki-P]

Hmm, somehow I feel compelled to acquire this, though mostly if there's anything... notably big in it.

[Cael K.]

Doesn't this mean the 360 is now dead in Japan?

It might not be good... but it's a little quick of a cross-platform release, I think. I was thinking a year past initial release.

Maybe sales of the XBox360 version have leveled out?

[PluggedBus]

I was laughing like a supervillain on the inside by the time I finished reading the announcement.
