It's time to NepNep like it's 1989!
In the game industry of our world we have seen countless companies come and go, bringing us amazing consoles, epic games, and so much enjoyment and innovation. From the simple joysticks and clunky cartridges of the past, to the sleek disc-based consoles of today, videogaming over the ages has told a rich and and storied saga. Now imagine if you will, a world where people live and die based on the market shares of their respective game comnpanies. A world where software pirates and modchip makers are the scourge of the seven seas. A world ruled by digitally deified divas who symbolize the hopes and dreams of their console nations. Welcome once again to the digital frontier of Gamindustri!
Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory marked the third main outing for the series when it hit the PS3, and it was also the longest and most hilarious off the wall and over the top Neptunia game that had been seen. If Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 was considered a reboot, then perhaps Hyperdimension Neptuinia Victory is a reboot of a reboot! The plot kicks in just a few short years after the events of MK2/Sisters Generation, with Neptune and Nepgear slacking off daily with the other CPUs (Console Patron Units) and CPU Candidates (The siblings of the CPUs). After the two sisters have a falling out over their shirked responsibilities, Neptune goes off on her own to work, and through a series of absurd events is transported back into the Gamindustri of the past!
The videogame industry allegory that runs throughout the series is just as strong as ever in this entry, this time telling the tale of the 1989 console war. In a time before Neptune and company even saved the world of Gamindustri the first time, A dark force from the past has come forth to destroy everything. I won;t say more about it, because SPOILERS! I won't bore you with the gameplay details and descriptions of the wonderful graphics and the adorable CPUs, because if you're here at this point, you know that this series is goddamn good, and that nothing is gonna change about that. Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 3: V Generation is more of the same hot Nep-Nep action you have some to expect from this series, and I would not have it any other way. Just go buy it already, you don;t want Iris Heart to get pissed off at you for taking too long!
