Now we have all heard about Aksys Games releasing Arcana Heart 3 for the Playstation Network here in the US. It seems they have forgotten about those who may only own an Xbox 360, like myself. I am very disappointed with Aksys about this, but I still have mad respect for them. After getting over my rage, I'm doing what fellow Aksys forums member Hiryuu suggested in another thread and starting one of my own to let Aksys know that us Xbox 360 fighting gamers also want Arcana Heart 3. I could care less whether it is disc-based or Xbox Live Games On Demand. You say this any way you want to. My only rule is that you state your case calmly and respectfully. After all the hard work Aksys has done to localize our favorite foreign games, they deserve peace and reason, not hate and venom. All those who spread venom will be blocked from this thread.

Thank you all and good luck to all of us. Let's come together and show Aksys how much we want Arcana Heart 3 on the 360.

Even though I'm getting this for PSN, I'm signing. I want as many people to be able to enjoy this game as possible.

I'm not mad at Aksysgames, I'm just feeling sad and happy at the same time, cuz of the recent news.

Aksysgames is the best game publisher ever, I own all their games that they released and I will continue to support them.

And I'm signing for a release on the Xbox 360, disc based if possible.

AKSYS FTW !!!

I'm going to join JasonPaul here and be a PSN buyer that supports this cause.

I'll buy the digital copy on PS3 if it means I can get a psychical copy on 360! Signs!

It doesn't make much sense to not have a US 360 release.

Most PS3 players interested have already imported the game but 360 users are stuck because of the region locked disc. I would think the US 360 base would be the target market in this case.

I don't necessarily think that's a safe assumption to make. Just because we COULD import it doesn't mean we DID. For some people, it's just too expensive, or perhaps they'd rather play the game in, you know, English? That said, it would be great if Aksys could get this out on 360 as well, although I'm sure they have their reasons for not planning it at this time.

I'll throw my hat in as another PS3 user who wants this released for the people who play on Xbox. I would love to see the community of this game expand even further. Thing is most of the PS3 owners who really wanted this game (myself included) have probably already imported their copies. It's the Xbox 360 people who need a local version the most. Regardless I'll still be getting the digital release once it's out this spring to show support for this game.

I agree with the other PS3 users in this thread. As different as our consoles are, we're still the AH community. =p

I still think Aksys is the best niche publisher out there (especially since they're essentially a jack of all trades company with a specialty in fighting games), but the announcement today was less than I expected. Obviously, Aksys can do whatever they want, but this announcement seems so unlike their usual style, that I can't help but support a 360 disc release.

Now that you mention it, it is sorta worrying. D=

I'm throwing in my support for this as well. As I mentioned in the comments of the press release, what I find most peculiar is that Arcana Heart 3 is being released on both PS3 and Xbox 360 on retail discs in Europe through pQube.

Why is this not happening in North America? PS3 owners, thanks to a region-free console have three options to play the game. Xbox 360 players have zero, unless you count having to buy a new system an option.

I have to also ask the question of where is the 360 version of Arcana Heart 3? This is so unlike them to not have a 360 release of a PS3/360 game and also kinda risky IMO. With That being said I'll support whatever decision aksys makes about releasing AH3 on the 360 because so far they have done more for a 360 user like me then any small US publisher has done so far. If their is no 360 version coming in any form I wounder what the reason for that would be? Did their other 360 games not sell enough to support a release of this game on the 360? IS MS holding up the release or something?

Exactly my thoughts. I wonder if it's something else entirely.

Posted in the other thread, but since Aksys wanted a press release for Arcana Heart 3 (PSN) on Valentine's Day maybe the Xbox 360 announcement is slated for White Day?

Yeah, I'd like to see a profitable disc-based release rolled out for the 360, too... Hopefully we'll hear more before this week's end.
I'd love to see it not because I've changed my mind and bought or plan to buy an XBox, but because perhaps something like this and Agarest will light a fire under SCEA's sorry asses and get them to start caring more about third-party publishers that they continually alienate and force out of business...

Actually, sticking to one platform as a digital download is one of the less risky routes you can take financially. They might have no idea how well this might sell, so they may just be sort of testing the waters with this release to see how it sells before thinking about a disc release. Of course, that might incite the ire of PS3 gamers everywhere, but that's another story.

I own only a 360 of the two consoles like many others. Naturally the PS3 only release hit me hard and left me disappointed. I won't give up hope just yet though! Come on AKSYS, bring it over to the 360! -signed-

Signing to bring great justice to the 360. I really hope Aksys brings this to the 360. It really hurts a community for fighting games when it is an exclusive release. Besides didn't the Japanese version of the game have a release for both the 360 and PS3?

First off, I am glad that AH3 is getting a stateside release. At all. But I have already imported for the PS3. My hope was the 360 would have gotten a NA release as well(as I play my 360 more and have several friends interested in it). So, I am a bit disappointed.

Signing this cause well, I love giving Aksys money. They give awesome stuff back.
