You might remember me telling you almost a year ago that Compile Heart's all-star RPG, Cross Edge would be coming to the PlayStation Thr ... what do you mean you don't remember? I swear, you people don't listen to anything I say, do y ... well, that's okay, because I'm about to remind you. Go back to your seat and stop interrupting.

Featuring characters from the worlds of Capcom, Nippon Ichi, Namco, Idea Factory and Gust, Cross Edge is a massive, writhing orgy of fanservice, in which we cannot yet participate. Now the Korean version is about to hit next week on the 19th, and our Korean friends over at Ruliweb (who no doubt all have incredibly hot sisters) have unleashed a fat batch of fresh screenshots for the rest of us to be jealous of.

You can check out several of them in the gallery below, or head over to Ruliweb for the full set. Hey, Asia, how about sending us a version of this game already? Or at least pictures of your sisters?

[Thanks, Funran!]

Topher Cantler

Yup, photos are all broken.

Chronic Logic

Christ, this looks like somebody took a bunch of fanfiction crossovers and made a game out of it.

Josh Tolentino

Speaking of nice things Asians got that dirty western barbarians have not (yet), I'd like to see Demon's Souls announced for NA/PAL release. I mean, the Asian version is already in full English (I'm playing it), why not release it here?

Wedge

You ah... know Japan is NTSC too, right?

Daynger777

Can I has for american Xbox 360? Preeeeeze!?

Topher Cantler

Goddammit. So it is.

Awesome. Are there any gameplay details yet?

funran

:( the pretty pictures, where have they gone :(

Kuugrr

Even that one screenshot that works looks so good.

Nukkus

is Morrigan going fishing?

Topher Cantler

Yeah, it's fun when everybody who's able to fix stuff when it breaks is away for the week. Sorry kids. I guess just follow the Ruli link and check 'em out there.

Stella Wong

DO WANT :3

What about "Namco X Capcom" released on PS2 (Japan only) a few years ago. Topher do you remember this game or not?

Riegel88

Uhm, actually it is coming here..release date is supposed to be May 20th 09, and it is on the PS3

"In an interview with RPGamer, a NIS America rep mentioned that they are indeed planning to bring the PS3 title X Edge to North America. A release date has yet to be finalized, but the rep said that NIS America is currently tracking a March 2009 release.

X Edge (pronounced Cross Edge) is an RPG title that brings together characters from games by Capcom, Nippon Ichi, Namco Bandai, Gust, and Idea Factory."

Hahaha, I didn't forget about this! I really want this damn game.

Topher Cantler

Riegel88 with the good news, then. I wonder why they aren't marketing this.

Oh, and Morrigan looks like she's picking her nose.

Riegel88

@Topher, I really don't know. I haven't really seen an RPG get marketed in a long time besides Star Ocean, and another one for the 360. And I've never seen any marketing for NIS titles.

Topher Cantler

That surprises me. I mean, of course they're not going to put up bilboards or anything, but I hadn't heard a word about it. You'd think they would at least give it the same hype they did Prinny.

Oh well, as long as I get to play it. :)

Daxelman

This looks crazy enough to warrant my interest.

I'm a sucker for Morrigan...I mean Scottish people...I mean Morrigan.

manasteel88

Nippon Ichi America said they had expressed interest in bringing it over.

TheCleaningGuy

It's got a Western release date. Gamestop says that it's coming May 20th. I've got it preordered. :)

mr spooky

Altair78

Asia gets all the good stuff... this game, anime, hentai... damnit!

Jesus H Christ

I don't have any idea what this article is about, but I loved the writing and just wanted to say Topher should write more.

BulletMagnet

"Massive, writhing orgy of fan service" is about as good of a potential descriptor for this game as I could have thought up.

And I couldn't be happier.

Xelotath

I saw Etna in a school swimsuit, this is enough for me to buy the game. I really hope it comes here.

CrocBox

Super faptastic, this cant show up in English fast enough!

MPHtails

PS3 only?

...

Looks like they're finally getting my 599 US dollars.

Riegel88

@ darkair I REALLY wish that would come over here..but sadly I don't think it ever will.

Gen Eric Gui

It's too bad that NISA are the shittiest translation company pretty much ever.

And I'm still burning with rage over not getting Namco x Capcom. That shit had ROCKMAN DASH in it. Not cool, Namco and Capcom, definitely not cool.

16bitmonster

i played the japanese demo via japan account.. idk.. it was rad to see the randomness of characters.. but overall the gameplay was kind of really boring.. :/

Dan CiTi

Ive been looking forward to this for a while. The demo on the Japanese PSN was pretty cool too.

Brian Szabelski

Can't wait for this to come along for the U.S.!

Oh wait. Never mind.

DemonEyes23

needs more morrigan...still do want

Dan CiTi

Namco X Capcom is horrible, don't feel bad.

Dan CiTi

Also NIS said this is coming out in the US already.

Midgetsnowman

Ah well. that makes two games I'd like to play that i wont because I refuse to pay sony money.

BlackFreefall

Another rpg? Is this even good or it just more of a fan service.

BulletTrain

God hopefully its better than namco x capcom. That game was just.....bad. Even if I couldn't read the moonspeak, it was just not a good game.

silvain

Whoever said that this looked like they taped a bunch of fanfiction together is right.
