The Last Story

[Yuri-G]

USE THE WIIMOTE TO DRAW MAGIC SYMBOLS AND CAST SPELLS!

i.e. "draw a fire spell and end up with cure magic."

Looks pretty fkn good

The screenshot look pretty damn good. I'm actually worried the game will be super short with that kind of graphic on the wii.

that... looks.... awesome

holy crap I want it now, when is the JP release? I'll probably just d/l that to see what it's like

[Doombear]

Still TBA as far as I know, with no official mention that i have seen of a US version. I don't see how they couldn't make one, but who knows. Both this and Xenoblade have me excited that I might actually get some use out of the damn console. Before MH3 I hadn't used the thing in months.

[Hyan]

This game better not be good.

Wii is not allowed to get good games >__>

[Parshias]

The game got delayed recently. Which is odd, since we never had a concrete release date anyway. Was supposed to be out around summertime, now will be a little later.

[Atreides]

I really hope this does well in Japan, as I suspect that's the only way we'll get an EU/US release.

I can't imagine Mistwalker's financials are all that great considering their games haven't sold all that well despite their critical acclaim. Hell, we didn't even get an A.S.H. localization, fucking dicks.

[Kurokikaze]

Damn... Makes me sad that I gave away my Wii. Now I gotta get a new one for this and Xenoblade. :/

Would've preferred if it was on one of the two other consoles... Need more HD RPGs.

[Doombear]

That reminds me... that translation patch is just DRAGGING isn't it? Dear lord, release the GD patch already A.S.H.hole.

Despite the animation, MGSRPG looks awwwwwwwwwwwwwweeesum

[Doombear]

SHIIIIIIT. I want this.

Sadly I know it will never look that good outside of a damn emulator running it HD, but still, looks fun as hell. RPG with a cover/stealth system? Ha! Can't wait.

[Kiarax]

Hot damn. Finally something worth dusting off the Wii for. This looks awesome. Scene at the end looked terrible though.

Wow. My thoughts exactly. Eyepatch and everything.

[Elcura]

Game looks great. A shame the Wii only has a title like this every blue moon, but when they look good they really do impress. Let's just play that they don't fuck this up with shitty controls.

[Atreides]

If this doesn't get a US release I will cry. It seems silly that it wouldn't as it's most likely Mistwalker's last grasp at commercial success, but you never know. God damn that looks so fucking hot.

This game actually looks great. Going to be one of the better looking Wii games no doubt. The combat system seems to be action based too. Honestly, I am still confused on what exactly it plays like. Probably will be shitty overall because mistwalker makes it though.

[Yuri-G]

being that this is Sakaguchi's first game as director for Mistwalker (and if I'm not mistaken it's actually his first game as director in a very long time), I'm hoping it will be better than what I've heard of Mistwalker's past games. he does great work in the director's chair.

[Atreides]

he directed Archaic Sealed Heat, which did really poorly in Japan and is currently Mistwalker's only game that hasn't been localized (although a fan translation should come out relatively soon, as it's been in beta testing for months).

Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon weren't bad games by any stretch of the imagination though, just lackluster commercial successes.
