Square Enix’s Next Franchise On Android Will Start With Dragon Quest VIII
As Final Fantasy’s time on Android draws to a close(at least for some time since the franchise will stop at FFVI for the time being) Square Enix has thought long and hard about what their next franchise should be for mobile. It seems that they want to start with Dragon Quest VIII, until they feel that current devices can handle the continuation of the FF series from VII on. Dragon Quest is one of the popular RPG franchises from Square Enix, and it looks to be making a debut(in Japan at least) on December 12th. This is not totally confirmed but the image shows what looks like to be a release date along with a price tag of 2,800 yen which rounds out close to $28. That’s a steep price for a game on Android. Hopefully this doesn’t end up the price we have to pay when this game reaches state side. Since there hasn’t actually been any announcements regarding the game, keep your eyes peeled here for more information on the game as we approach Dec. 12th.

Savant-Ascent;The Gothic Shooter That Has More Wub Wub Than Borderlands 2
Shooters are becoming extremely popular again. With entries into the Genre like Savant-Ascent, that’s no surprise. This Gothic themed shooter has tons of action and fast paced chaotic gameplay that will have you straining to dodge attacks from oncoming enemies while shooting as many out of the sky as you can. All to the tune of Dubstep music. The really cool thing about Ascent, besides its graphics and gameplay of course, is the fact that each level will task you with trying to acquire all for pieces of a “CD” which will give you a certain power boost for the next level. Each “CD” is associated with a certain music track that plays in the background as well, which is a unique way to decide what music you listen to during the game. Savant-Ascent is a little like “Bleed” which you can pick up on steam, so if you have played that you will love Savant-Ascent. It will set you back $1.99 but trust us it’s worth it.http://youtu.be/jYQ2BazFFEg
