Sega announces Valkyria Chronicles browser game

it's pretty sad that this well made game that took years of planning just become a simple TCG

its a well made game that took lots of time to beat it unlike CoD,always come out on november sooo predictable

never play valkyria chronicles 1 but watched the anime..and that was the time i got hook to the series..and played valkyria chronicles 2 on PSP..wanted to play valkyria chronicles 3 on my PSP again..but sadly no english version of it..i wanna try out this game even though i don't like card game..but issit in english??

Make it for iOs as well.

I Really liked the 1st Season Anime and that brought me into the 2nd chapter of this game into the PSP, but the 3rd one was in jap i could not read jap, but only understand a little talk -_- I Really hope they release the 1st,2nd and 3rd one combo into one game into the vita in english :)

Meh... Although I love TCG, it;s not what I wanted from Sega!!!! I'd buy PSP again just to play Valkyria Chronicles 3!!!

Bah. All the comments here are 'hate on the series!' again and just filled my inbox with trash. So much for following a conversation.

card game?................................

To those of you who are defending this particular decision, and decisions that Sega have made such as making a PSP sequel to the first Valkyria Chronicles: Before you tell people they made the right decision maybe you should look into it a little more. Go to vgchartz.com and look at the sales. Valkyria Chronicles for the PS3 sold 1.03 million copies. This compared to 460,000 copies for the PSP sequel. Regardless of development costs being cheaper I'm pretty sure the added sales for a PS3 sequel would have negated that and could have been an even bigger success. Also the first game sold 620,000 copies in North America alone. This should be a hint for companies that make Japanese RPGs. If you make them, and they are good, we will buy them. Not only will we buy them, but it is quite likely you will sell more in NA than in Japan. This isn't the first time SEGA has made a bad decision. Hopefully they will learn. Free to play isn't the worst option, but quality often suffers and single player modes are usually non-existent or not very good. Hopefully in the future this will change. I would hate to see a world full of free to play with games that aren't as good.  

If you want to play this game I wrote a small tutorial teaching how to register.

I'd still play it, as long as it were available in (readable) English.

That's too bad. One of the few series that actually had some creativity.

It was a little too... anime, at times (The pig...) but overall it had a very mature and well presented storyline. I mean, I can't think of many other games, if any, that touch on mass racial imprisonment and outright genocide.

It's sad that this series has gone so far from the States. It's one of the most unique RPG series from Japan in this day and age, and sadly it just doesn't have a big audience in the US. Loved the first and second game and had greatly wished the third game would have made it here. I am hoping that, at some point, they will re-release all three games for the PS3. I would definitely buy that.

Well, can we at least all agree that the artwork for this is quite beautiful?

a japanese web browser tcg game? really? what's next a facebook farmgimmick?

how is this news? maybe 5% of the people here can even play it.

/cry

 I loved this series. First it went from PS to PsP, then it's not even translated anhymore, now it becomes a browser based card game. Same with Monster Hunter, how can such great franchises just wither and die outside of Japan?

Pathetic.I never played a Valkyria Chronicles game before, but getting the "browser treatment" is like giving your own franchise the middle finger.

Bring VC 3 to america while your at it SEGA.

love the 1st one on Ps3, one of my favorite game, sad to see it not coming back to PS.

damn it, had my hopes up when i saw the title...eh, i'll still try it out but have such little faith in anything thats "free"

Social games are becoming really popular in Japan. There is a lot of new social games like Final Fantasy Brigade SNK Dream Battle, Tales of Card Evolve and this one coming this year. I think I`ll give Valkyria Chronicles Duel a try.

we absolutely need another REAL Valkyria chronicle on PS3 not some crappy browser game!

Valkyria Chronicles on the PS3 is one of the most overlooked games this console generation. On the surface it seems like just another JRPG but its much more than that. Give it a try!

 It's really nice that they're making a new way of playing a great series. No offense, but the people ranting about this are idiots. It's a spin-off, free, and no one is twisting their arms to play it if they don't want to. Negative reception even before release is what killed the series in the west. Kinda hilarious that when VC2 was getting localized everyone was hating on it but when VC3 wasn't everyone wanted it. Kinda sad that a series this great gets hated on just because Sega makes a decision to keep themselves from dying - in Japan people actually buy their gamesand they can't please everyone. :(

Besides, this spin-off looks great. I hope it gets an English release.

Sigh so we get the Kingdom hearts treatment, no main line sequels, just shoddy spinoffs.
