Once you pick one, the rest set off in competition.Īs stories go it’s pretty original, the setting of the Console Wars a neat nod to gaming, with references made frequently in the dialogue, even if it is completely ridiculous.

#Neptunia reverse differences ps3

Neptune, who embodies Sega’s console, is childish and energetic, Noire, the PS3 CPU, is individualistic, doing things in her own time, Vert is the 360, intelligent but arrogant and Blanc represents the Wii, who gets loud and angry despite looking quiet. Set in the real world, you take the role of a student settling down for a summer gaming marathon, before you’re unwittingly summoned through your TV and made to choose a CPU to manage.Įach has their own personality, though managing them boils down to the same actions. Rather than beat the monsters up, they’ve chosen to beat them at their own game – which is where you come in. In the main series they squabble for control in their realm, but here they’ve decided to team up as the monsters they usually fight have formed an epic idol group called MOB48 and have taken all the planet’s “shares” (basically prayers). Each represents a console from the last generation, the Wii, PS3, and 360, as well as the cancelled Sega Neptune. What’s a CPU I hear you cry? Well, they are the goddesses of their world, Gamindustri. While the rest of the Hyperdimension Neptunia series is a traditional (and from the sound of it, mediocre) JRPG, Producing Perfection is in fact a spin-off, based around managing a CPU and turning her into a pop idol. It’s fair to say that I didn’t have particularly high expectations going into Producing Perfection, either, but it turns out I was wrong. My last outing with a JRPG was to review Mugen Souls Z, which didn’t go so well, and watching the trailer didn’t help manga girls dancing around to Japanese pop songs while buzzwords flashed across the screen. I wasn’t sure what to expect when Hyperdimension Neptunia: Producing Perfection landed on my “to review” pile.
