We have become immediate fans of Quantum Suicide after being made aware of it yesterday. It is in many ways a holy trinity for what we like to stand for at DDNet; it’s indie creativity at work, it’s a “Japanese game” and it’s developed by Aussies! As a visual novel…
Read MoreI come bearing some brief – yet wonderful – news: Danganronpa has a firm release date for its PC version. Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc will be available on Steam February 18. Spike Chunsoft has also given us a glimpse at the trading cards and badges for the game: As someone…
Read MoreFor the first time (and long overdue in my humble opinion), non-Vita players will be able to get their hands on the game Matt gave “an emphatic five stars” in his review. That’s right folks, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is getting ready to hit Steam this February. Danganronpa: Trigger Happy…

Read MoreI thought we could do something a little different this week to our usual game-based countdowns, and have a look at some games that would be perfect as films. Of course, there haven’t been that many good video game movie adaptations out there. There’s a couple of decent ones, for…
Read MoreSpike Chunsoft’s Danganronpa and its sequel are favourites of the DDNet team, and indeed our community. Not only did we give both games maximum scores, but the first Danganronpa was voted as the best game of all in 2014 by our readers. In that context it’s probably not going to come…
Read MoreDanganronpa. Monokuma. If these two words don’t have you squealing with glee, then you’ve obviously not played either the first Danganronpa or its sequel.
