Namco X Capcom

[Omeganitros]

I wonder if they'll include the two Vampire Hunters from the totally awesome arcade shooter, Vampire Night.

Also: Who's this guy, who appears to be a main character?


And while we're at it, where have I seen this guy before?

[Moogy]

The guy on the bottom is from Tales of Eternia, which isn't out yet.

Dunno the guy on top.

Like Konami's Krazy Racers, some of the characters have not shown up in any US released games.
Hmm... I spotted Mitsurugi but no Nightmare. Bummer.
I read somewhere else that there will be loads of cameos, though.

edit: here it is.

The second trailer.
I seriously want this game now.
Oh and a cookie for anyone who can find a link to the song.

[Squeek]

So many people's worries about the game were answered with that video and that quote. Holy crap.

Not only is Klonoa in the game (GG Kefit), but Megaman and Roll are in it as well (GG Kilga).

Moogy, it WASN'T just generic trance. It's like 100x better with the lyrics. Amazing.

Would the text during the scene with the tower be the artist? It says: (Ancient) Flair: (Sweet Age Trax). The Japanese before it says something about Ancient as well.

PS - Proof of Klonoa, Megaman, and Roll -




And I assume he's with Klonoa:

SUPER PS - It comes out in a month!

Well, when I first heard that this game was going to be a RPG styled game like DOT//HACK, I thought it was going to blow ass. Now that I have seen the trailer my mind has done a complete 180. This game is going to rock ass. Even as a ps2 game, it's going to rock ass, Which is an amazing accomplishment. Two thumbs up for this shit.

[Omeganitros]

Okay, here's how I think this works:

First, you got your little 3D arena, where you strategically position and stuff. When you get to the 2D arena, it's kinda like Paper Mario. Remember how you could a button with timed precision and you could pull off attacks? I think it work the same way here, but more complex. Why else would it count the number of hits you make on your enemy?

Also, I am very pleased to see Cammy in this. She's a Street Fighter favorite of mine.

[jamuko]

IT'S UNFORESEEN POSTER TIME! D:

And while we're at it, where have I seen this guy before?

Actually, that's Stahn, the main character from Tales of Destiny; not Tales of Eternia. (By the way, Tales of Eternia did come out here, but it was titled Tales of Destiny 2. I think it's coming out again for the PSP, though...)

Just thought I'd add that. This game is going to be awesome...

[Omeganitros]

Best first post ever. Now go get yourself an avatar and sig.

[jamuko]

Oh, I probably don't need to be sticking around... I just happened to see this thread and thought I'd clarify. Thanks for the compliment, though.

Still, an avatar and sig couldn't hurt, eh?

...I'll get right on that.

[Kilgamayan]

Image 51 is Tron and some Servbots.

And that's not all.



Can't wait to go around beating ass with Roll, Felicia and Cammy. <3

Also lol at the guy who got the shit beat out of him by King and Felicia.

[Squeek]

BUMP FOR REQUEST.

No, seriously, I have to have this BGM. I REALLY DO.

Googling "New AGe Trax" got me nowhere. Same with "Ancient Flair" and all that jazz.

I really want it >_>

Oh yeah, it comes out this month. Who all is importing it?

~Squeek

[Omeganitros]

My question still stands? Why would it count the number of hits you make?

3rd trailer is out.

It's all talking, so if you were looking for anything other than that, skip it.

[Omeganitros]

I am almost certain that main character is original.
