Free Ni No Kuni DLC coming this Feb 12

Ni No Kuni-ss Ni No Kuni just got released last week for the Playstation 3 and I'm sure most of you are playing right now. Well, if your loving the game so far, you might want to check out the Playstation Store on February 12 for some free DLC.

Publisher Namco Bandai just announced that you can download the Draggle Familiar free of charge on the Playstation Store when it gets available. With an industry now filled with paid DLC's at every corner, it's good to see every now and then free content, even though it's as simple as a new familiar for your game.

A new trailer was also released to get a glimpse of Oliver's adventure to another world. From what I'm hearing, this is turning out to be one of the best JRPG's to hit this generation. And that soundtrack...

Weekend! What are you playing?

rising_ss03 Yey, the weekend! Do I go out and have as many drinks as I can until I pass out on a sidewalk, sleep all day, or just play more video games? Actually, I'm going for all three this weekend so good luck to me. What are you playing? 

Quash: I might call it an early night this friday, but after doing my errands tomorrow, I'm planning to play the Metal Gear Solid: Revengeance demo. Been waiting for this demo for weeks since Revengeance might just be my first game of 2013. As of right now, I haven't bought anything new since my Halo 4 purchase in early December. I also plan to play some Path of Exile and get to act 3, and hopefully do some Guild Wars 2 dungeons with some friends if they get online.

Migoy: Haven't really thought about what I'll be playing this weekend. Will probably get around to starting Dmc Devil May Cry on the Son of Sparda difficulty. I definitely need hit the lab in Persona 4 Arena and Street Fighter x Tekken. More so in SFxT because I recently got blown-up badly by a few players online. Plus I just need to step my game up in general. Can't rely on the scrub skills forever. I also borrowed Arlie's copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and heard that there are still people who play it online so I'll try that out. I also just got a new microphone so I'll definitely do some tests for that. Who knows, maybe some good footage might go along with it.

Arlie: What is up? I'm still at the office and I can't wait to get home for the weekend. I'm planning to get into Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch more and play less of Guild Wars 2. I'm only just 16 hours in Ni No Kuni thanks to my schedule. THIS GAME IS SO AMAZING that playing it only for an hour or two a day is just dumb. Earlier this week my Human Elementalist already hit the max level cap of 80 in Guild Wars 2, only to realize that (shit!) this was just the beginning. After that, I've been running down dungeons and trying to finish the story arcs. A major update was up this week in Guild Wars 2 and its called Flame & Frost: Prelude (Game of Thrones reference? anyone?). Feel free to add me in GW2, my gamer tag is arliedavid.6123 roaming at Isle of Janthir. Excelsior!

Ni no Kuni gets an English trailer

Wrath of the White Witch Namco Bandai released the first trailer for Ni No Kuni's english port. Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is a Playstation 3 exclusive, and is about a boy discovering a whole new world and embarks on a journey to bring his mother back from the dead. If you are a fan of Japanese RPG's, then you might want to check this out.

Excited for it? Sadly, it's set for an early 2013 release. That's quite a long wait for a game released in Japan last November. It's just translating the game into english, but then again I don't really know the process of how it's done. The official site for the game has been launch if you wish to check it out.

The gameplay of Ni no Kuni has a strong resemblance of Pokemon but with the characters also being involved in the fight. Just to give you guys a better picture, Below is gameplay footage back in 2011 before it was released in Japan.
