    Just finishing the 2nd season. Waaaay better than the 1st season which was pretty poor imo.

    That game looks awesome.

    Where last season saw ‘The Legend of Korra’ debuting the first episode of the new season from San Diego, IGN revealed that season 3 will in fact debut on June 27 at 7:00 p.m. with a two-part premiere, followed immediately by the third episode! The show will take off for the 4th of July, and return to Friday nights at 8:00 p.m. beginning July 11.

    Those American times though, so probs in the middle of the night here.

    The PSN symbol and announcment tells me that this might just be a smaller downloadable game.

    Yeah it is a download game.

    I think this announcement fell into the "Well I didn't see that coming" category.

    Probably fair to say that Platinum are probably only still around because major publishers and platform holders keep giving them contracts to make games. Nintendo - Bayonetta 2, Konami - Revengence, Microsoft - Scalebound, Activision - this. Surely none of them think the games are actually going to make money and just have some executives who like them or know it will gain some goodwill among the Platinum cultists (I include myself in that category).

    It's like Renaissance patronage!

    MArked down because of a shallow story and too much focus on the combat system... It's a Platinum game for crying out loud.

    The price and the fact that its releasing so close to Bayonetta 2 are worrying to be honest, could still be alright though.

    Played up to chapter 4 last night. I'm enjoying it but I'm getting my a$$ handed to me. I'm terrible at these kind of games.
    It's super smooth on the PS4 but it's not really pushing the hardware at all.
    The bending is great especially at the start when you get to flail around with all 4 elements to get used to the system.

    Chuffed to hear a halfway positive sentiment about it; reactions seem to be of the 'mixed-to-negative' variety thus far.

    I'll see if I can find some more player opinions.

    Or just buy it after I finish MGR.

    There's still a 4 quid price difference between the US and EU release. It's 14.99 in both regions. Mind, if you've got a multi-region system, then it's moot. Yeah, pointless complaint, mostly, but it still gives me chuckles the see them pull this craic in 2014.

    I might give it a run-through to tide me over to Bayonetta 2.

    It's got mixed reviews now but I thought it was going to be €40-70 euro dependant on where and how you bought it so even if it's mixed it's hard to complain for either €15/$15 in any case.

    Yeah I'm probably still going to buy this to be honest even with the mixed reviews, 15 quid sounds about right for the 4-5 hours of gameplay on offer.
