My personal favorite Dungeon Crawling franchise is scheduled to make a return to North America sometime in early 2013 with the release of Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan. This fourth game in the hardcore franchise is the first to be released on the Nintendo 3DS and it boasts polygonal enemies designed to make full use of the system’s 3D capabilities.
“The Etrian Odyssey series is an enduring love letter to a bygone era, a time when the thrill of adventure; the rewards of imagination; and the satisfaction of true challenge could truly transport gamers to another world,” stated Aram Jabbari, Manager of Public Relations and Sales at Index Digital Media, Inc. “While Legends of the Titan continues to be a bridge to that past, the series now enjoys its most technologically sophisticated foray yet.
An exact release date hasn’t been given yet, but it’s always a good idea to pre-order Etrian Odyssey games since they can be hard to find after launch. We also have some screens for you to check out below.
Mike's first experience with a console was in the early 80’s when his dad brought home an Atari 400. It wasn’t the greatest gaming machine at the time but it did play a crude version of Pac-Man and it had a keyboard. But, Mike's love for videogames really got started when his friend invited him over to his house to show off his newly acquired NES with Super Mario Bros. Mike had never experienced a game like that before and his friend actually convinced him that jumping into one of the pits would give him a powerup. It was a cruel joke and Mario lept to his death. But from that moment on Mike was hooked.
Mike was originally brought onto the Gaming Trend staff as a PSP editor starting with the god awful Major League Baseball 2K8. Thankfully, these days he reviews much better titles. He also spends an obscene amount of time playing The Lord of the Rings Online with his Dwarf Rune Keeper named McLush and his Warden named Hanton on the Elendilmir server.
