Fate / Extra ,Another Fate Game for PSP



ORE SANJOU !!!

Ok,I'm back after withstood the pain in hell,the hell without internet connection... (well,my isp is out of order for 2 days because of something is wrong....

Well,now I'm here,eating some instant ramen (right now) for breakfast,and typing some nasty material for you guys.

Ok,as you can see on the title it's about fate / extra.Well,some of you probably know about it and the movie one,Fate / Stay Night : unlimited Blade Works already out roaming in the Internet .

One important thing is,I never played this game before because...... I don't have the psp.....
But relax,I already watch tons of the videos on youtube so,I know some gist of it.

Ok,now let's get started

Story

Year 2032. An ancient artifact is discovered on the moon, the Moon Cell, capable of fulfilling any wish.

The participants enter in the virtually created Tsukumihara Academy, and a system called Se.Ra.Ph allows them to summon a Servant based on the data recorded in the Moon Cell.

After a preliminary testing of candidates that goes for 4 days, there are at the end 128 participants that must fight the other Masters in a one-versus-one inside a maze-like area called Arena. The winner proceeds to the next phase and the loser is deleted both in the virtual world and in the real world, until only one of them remains.

When you start the game,you can choose to become male or female character (the story still the same only with a few dialogue different)

Gameplay
This game has some similiarity with with shin megami tense serise,Persona.Well,we could say the air is similiar.


as we could see, similiar status view

The view inside dungeon,with saber following you everywhere you go ♪


Also,there is one similarity with kingdom hearts


This is the place where you get your servant,similiar to kingdom hearts black room (which I forgot what it is called)

Ok now for battle


The battle scene screenshot.

The battle itself we could say,an improvised of rock-paper-scissor game.In one turn,there is 6 row of action we can choose.There 3 type of attack, attack,guard,and break.Atack beat break,guard beat attack,break beat guard.When choosing action,it takes one slot it the same with skill.Also you as the master can support your servant too by using various magic or item and master action slot is above servants action slot.

Oh yes let me explain it a bit.At the bottom image there is a row of box.The upper row is your servant action and above it is master (you) action.Below is your enemy action.Sometimes you can see your opponent moves so you can do a counter attack by using opposite action(see above).And also if you successfully at dealing a chain blow at your enemy you can do an extra attack which your servant automatically attack the enemy again without enemy acting.

ok that is the gist of gameplay.(you can watch it at youtube for more detail of the battle).

Now lets introduce the character.
Note : you can choose to play with one of 3 servants ,saber,archer,or caster.

Master : you (male/ female)
Servant : Saber ( Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus)
Noble Phantasm : Aestus Domus Aurea

Yay ! it's saber again ! But not the same saber folks.As we can see above her real identity is Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus.Yeah, a "Caesar" (my saber is an emperor :d).Well,she is very-very-very similiar with saber arthuria but she is different though.She is more arrogant (and more tsundere ^^).Well,some people thinks she's a bit "slutty" because..... well.... her skirt.... is .... TRANPARENT XD >.< Master : you (same as above...)
Servant : Archer (Emiya)
Noble Phantasm : Unlimited Blade Works

Ok folks,our "GAR" archer is back.He is the same archer we know the only different think is,she isn't with rin.(Rin with someone else now.... see bellow).Somehow

Master : you (again)
Servant : Caster (Tamamo no Mae)
Noble Phantasm : Suiten Nikkō Amaterasu Yano Shizuishi

My favourite servant ^^.She has a cute and "moe" voice especially when she say "Koshujin-sama" (sorry if the romanji is wrong).She is a cheerful servant,has the funiest dialogue
,and... she wants to become the faithful wife of the main character [you] (even if you choose female character, she says that "with magic all is possible"...). :D

Oh yes,she isn't a human...... (look at the ear and tail,bro) a kitsune (fox) eventhough in the story she refers herself that actually she isn't a fox but a jackal... -_-".

Her voice actress is Chiwa Saitō ,the one who voice Senjougahara Hitagi on Bakemonogatari (well her voice is different,that's the seiyuu for you).

well.... for battle caster is the weakest from the there servants we can choose so she is the hardest to use. but she has magic (because she is a caster :d)

Now for the enemy

Master : Rin Tohsaka
Servant : Lancer ( Chu Chulainn)
Noble Phantasm : Gáe Bolg

Rin is back but now she's with lancer.Well lancer still the same from fate/stay night but with a little modified armor.(Looks like Tron thought...)
Well,About Rin here.....
She isn't the same one at Fate/Stay Night.The truth is,she is only an "avatar".The real person actually a blonde girl that live in Africa !


Master : Rani VIII
Servant : Berserker (Ryofu Housen (Lu Bu in Chinese))
Noble Phantasm : God Force

One thing,she is an Indian not Indian from America).As we can see,her servant is berserker not ordinary berserker because he is Lu Bu

One thing for the two above,in the middle of game,you can choose one of 2 routes.Rin routes or Rani routes.The one which you choose will lost her servant but she will become your "ally" (similar at fate/stay night).


Rin & Lancer vs Rani & Berserker

Master : Dan Blackmoore
Servant : Archer (Robin Hood)
Noble Phantasm : Yew Bow

Hohoho,finally a "real" archer and not just ordinary one,it's Robin Hood !
Something strange I found about his real identity in a web, Robin Hood is not as a single person but as the several nameless young men that used that name. He uses poisoned arrows and hit and run tactics , acting as a completely fag.
Well.... whatever....

Well... for the master..... just think he is an old hag..... he thinks he is some kind of a knight...

Master : Shinji Matou
Servant : Rider (Francis Drake)
Noble Phantasm: Golden Wild Hunt

Ok,another familiar face but also different.in this game Shinji is just a 8 years old genius hacker (the one in the picture was his body in the virtual world).Also his servant is a rider again....
Well,the Real Francis Drake is a "man" thought.....

note : there are only one rider class and one assassin class eventhough every class has 2 servant appear in this game except saver (final boss)

Master : Julius B. Harvey
Servant : Assassin (Li Shuwen)
Noble Phantasm : No Second Strike

This guy well.... I'.m not interested talking about the master one.His servant real name is Li Shuwen, a Chinese martial artist. He conceals his presence and did a fatal attack that stopped the flow of magic between the main character and Saber, eventually restored with the help of Tohsaka Rin in a suggestive mana transfer scene below....


Rin : "Heh heh, like this, you're surprisingly cute..."


Too bad there is a magic trap in the door that explodes before you can see the full scene... LOL :D

Master : Alice
Servant : Caster (Nursery Rhyme)
Noble Phantasm : Queen's Grass Game

Alice at first is thought to be twins, but in fact the Master is the one using the white doll-jointed goth loli avatar and Caster is Nursery Rhyme, the embodiment of the world of picture books for children. Nursery Rhyme doesn't have a body, so manifest itself as the will of his Master, in this case a mirror version of Alice herself (Note : Alice is the one at right,wearing white dress).


Master : Ranruu-kun
Servant : Lancer (Vlad the 3rd , a.k.a. Dracula)
Noble Phantasm : Kazıklı Voyvoda

. . . . . . . .
A clown..... noted that actually she is a woman..... a crazy one.... crazy clown.....
The servant is.... well..... the person who become the model of we know as Dracula (also a crazy person same as his master...)


Master : Leonard B. Harvey
Servant : Saber (Gawain)
Noble Phantasm : Excalibur Gallatin

Well,let's just say that Leo is just a rich brat.He introduces his servant as Gawain since the first day.His servant is Gawain is one of the Knights of the Round Table and the nephew of King Arthur. He holds the sword Excalibur-Gallatin (a sister sword of Excalibur), uses sun powered attacks and was invulnerable during the day until was hacked by Tohsaka.Well.... Saber Extra (red saber,the one in this game has the same face with original saber / saber Arthuria but he doesn't recognized her.... I wonder why....)


Master : Gatou Monki
Servant : Berserker (Arcueid Brunestud)
Noble Phantasm: Blut die Schwester

Ok,Gatou is a guy that mixed several religions, and worships his Servant as a God (crazy....). His objective is to save the humanity via his self-made religion (what an insane person...).His servant,Arcueid as Berserker (female berserker..... I never imagine about that) is somewhat weird. It is never explained how she became a Servant, her status are downgraded due the ineptitude of her Master, and after the battle she comes to her senses, tears the virtual world with her claws and simply jumps out of scene. Most likely, is the true Arcueid and not data from the Moon Cell.
Arcueid is a character of TYPE-MOON another work,Tsukihime.


Master : Twice H. Peaceman
Servant : Saver (Vairocana)
Noble Phantasm : Reincarnation Unto One

Ok,here is the final boss..... fighting a Buddha ? i can never imagine thing like this before and this is the first game I ever seen that Buddha is appear.

-_-
_/\_

Oh.... there is still one....

Type : Monster (Ryogi Shiki)
Noble Phantasm : Amalavijñāna: Boundary of Emptiness

ok,she is not a servant,nor a master.her name is Ryougi Shiki from Kara no Kyoukai (fixed,I always forgot to fix this) but.... he is categorized as.... Monster.See below....

she is a secret boss which appear when you beat the game once and start a New Game+

Ok that's all....
