Aya Brea Returns in The Third Birthday

I don’t know how many of you picked up the first two Parasite Eve games on the now classic PlayStation, but I did…and I fucking love these games. You can only imagine how happy I was to learn today that there is a third game in the trilogy to the series making its way onto the PSP in December.

Don’t even get me started on how ridiculously awesome the game looks…because seeing graphics that look this great on a portable system just make me think that we could easily see a full-blown edition of this game on the PS3 eventually.

The video is in all Japanese but that’s not the important part, dialogue is second here. What’s got me the most interested is the cool battle system that looks like it’s going to take a departure from the original and the amazing CG that Square has been able to show off in all of their recent games. I don’t know if this will be a day one for me, but the minute that it goes down a bit on PSN I’ll consider it.

I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for. It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are. I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own. It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
