Esha it’s not an MMO, it’s simialr to Monster Hunter, which will please the Japanese audience no end.

I like the direction most games are going these days, ever since double dragon on the nes I always wanted more games to do co-op of some sort, I am tired of fight my friends lol

Pud – I’m as sure as I can be considering it’s not officially announced. I have to say “rumour,” innit

Ooh.

If somehow build a mission-creation system into this, it could end up being the Japanese iteration of Neverwinter Nights, and that would make me very happy. It has to be said that I’m not a huge fan of MMOs because of the kind of person one tends to find there, but I had very positive experiences with NWN thanks to Neverwinter Connections.

Then again, I’m probably hoping for too much.

And I have to admit, I agree with pat. It does look horribly generic, but then I’ve heard it billed as the Japanese iteration of Oblivion (opposedly) which was also a terribly, terribly generic game (not that the samey bloomified graphics bothered all the fans back then).

It could be good though, and it could surprise me. I’m hoping so, because I like RPGs, and I like co-op games, and I have a firey passion for co-op RPGs. So… quiet hopes.

Because for it to be fact he’d need to name his source.

Pat, why is it listed as rumour if you’re so sure by the way?

Thats what worried me.

I want it to be Fable-esque.

But to fair it proabably won’t be, the guy said liek Monster Hunter, so I expect that.

I hope they’ve resisted the temptation to make it all MMOish.

4 player online sounds less generic.

Soudns like what Hino said was true.

Well you can make it less generic, by makign your onlien charcter look insane in charcter creation mode, but Level 5 always create games with that bright generic setting.

And I can’t wait for ICo 3

Oh… Wait.

CAn’t wait for you to lose that tenner Pat.

It didn’t show very well last year at TGS and it did look a bit on the bland side. But it’s been a year since then and they’ve had ample time to polish it up. Level 5 usually knock out great stuff, so I’m fairly confident it won’t disappoint.

Unless it does.

What is this about anyway? I haven’t seen anything since the pretty good trailer over a year ago.

At the risk of sounding negative about this, doesn’t it look a little… generic? :-S
