Potentially yes, but probably not. It depends on something behind-the-scenes that I might push to move forward within the next week. If it goes through, you wouldn't want to help out with the article. If it doesn't get off the ground, though, then I'll see what I can do.
Team Ninja's now making it clear that Samus won't be a playable character, and instead, she can "help out" players under specific circumstances.
Somewhere out there, there's a "_____ of the Year" article brewing. Something with zany categories and meaningless victories. It's just not in here. But it's in development.
They already kind of did that with a fighter a while back. It had Snake, Bomberman, and a few other characters I can't recall right now. Regardless, without much knowledge of how markets work, I read this as Konami making a statement of confidence in regard to Hudson's work, so hopefully we'll see some great stuff come from them in the future.
Oh dear. I forgot how sick I grew of the "theme song" from Final Fantasy XIII. I was just glad to hear there was some other music played in the trailer aside from it.
"Greetings!
You may download a trailer for FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 at our press FTP. There is no embargo, please feel free to post at your earliest convenience."
It doesn't make sense that Square Enix asked for this to be removed. That quote came from their press email. Weird.
I figured I'd add some zest to my description. I might go back and try some of the challenge cities tomorrow. Still, I need a new game! A new game for next week!
I've checked, and it does. There's not really enough info out there to make another post about it, but it comes with classic-styled SMB stages, which can be raced on. Sega says you can choose to play with the DS pad or the tilt controls. Seems like it's a title anyone could keep anyone's hands full!
Ridley isn't very fond of Ryu Hyabusa, it seems. No word on if Samus is playable, but I'd guess she probably is, given the tease in the trailer. The only question is if she's only in her power suit, only in the zero suit, or if there'll be a way to play as both forms of Samus. I'd guess ZSS will definitely be in the game, given Team Ninja's track record.
Looks like there's no focus on the classic stages here. I suppose it might be all mini-games. Hopefully that isn't the case, and there's a set of stages that rival the original Super Monkey Ball ones.
