Atlus...I love you. I love that you were able make
a game about surgery fun, I love that you made a JRPG where
I can shoot myself in the head and still feel impeccably stylish, and I love you for continuing the trend of awesome with your newest announcement,
Summon Night, Twin Age.
While the new DS title is a little more conventionally structured than Atlus's previous offerings, it still looks as if it holds a lot of promise. The in-game footage reminds me a bit of my favorite SNES RPGs, which equals instant nostalgia. The story is about a young girl setting off on a quest to fight evil forces with her creature companion and will feature full use of the stylus for all actions. The title is actually one in a
series, although it didn't come to America until
Summon Night: Swordcraft Story hit the GBA in 2006.
Here's the
official site for you to ogle until the game comes out this May. Adorable!

GET IT?!!!?!
i'm loving this DS RPG love. needs more
Not sure if want. The first Summon Night was kinda humdrum and overly simplistic, and while the second had much better constructed gameplay, it still just couldn't hold me. I'll be keeping my eye on this one, as the Secret of Mana-syle gameplay looks more interesting than the older game's "Tales of Phantasia Lite" battle system.
The characters are cute though. I love the art style for these games.
Anyway, I just started playing Rhapsody (yeah PS1, owned it since it came out but just started playing it) and it reminded me why I love Atlus.
DO WANT
If it has the same production values as persona 3 and trauma center, we may have a winner.
Of course with the new battle system, it should be a lot more enjoyable for long periods of time.
and thats make me happy
Well, I'm not looking for an exceptional RPG.
Anyway, I wouldn't mind this one. Atlus should keep up the good work. :O)
