Today we’ll talk about the world of Aincrad which exists in the fictional VRMMO… Sword Art online…
Wait a minute! Sword art online? That’s an anime that already came out, one that Michael already mentioned in a post too… Why are you bringing about this thing when we’re suppose to be talking about something new?
Well… just like there was an anime, on March 14 2013, Japan is finally releasing Sword Art Online: Infinity Moment for the PSP! Not sure if this baby is coming out to the states but I hope it is. Seems that this game is going through a ton of stuff.

Now… obviously since it’s for the PSP, this game is not going to actually be an online game but will be more like the .hack games where you control the main PC(who happens to be Kirito) while your other online mates are controlled by CPUs. Now this is going to be very exciting.
Now… the best part is… unlike in the anime, you’ll be able to get party members! You control Kirito so you don’t have to make him a loner just like he is in the anime, but you can partner him up with numerous people who are shown in the original Light Novels!
Light novels? Why not just mention the anime…? Well, unlike just having people from SAO, Leafa from ALO and Sinon from GGO(who was never shown into the anime) are making their appereances as well as availible party members for you to use. I’m especially looking forward to play with Sinon, my number one “waifu” in the series who is rocking a kick ass bow, making her unique compared to all the other possible characters in the series…
To top it off, just like in .hack, there’s a small dating sim in the game to enhance your relationship with your party members… no telling how it’ll effect game play in battle as well by improving your relationships? Not to mention… Them fan girls might be able to get that Klein x Kirito pairing they wanted… Eh… That’s a minus for me but if I get to be with my waifu Sinon, then I’m completely happy for that!
I want it….
