Disaster: Day of Crisis Official Thread of bears, salmon and marketing DIZASUTAAAA!!!

Great thread, can't wait for it to eventually come out in the US. I honestly doubt that NoA would not release it over here, they're probably holding it until January like last year when Endless Ocean was released in Japan and Europe in 07, but was released in NA in January 08.

I'm pretty sure it will be released in NA. It was announced at E3, and there's no reason why they shouldn't release a Hollywoodesque action flick-wannabe in the US (if marketed right, it could be its biggest market after all).

Wow Jocchan, thats some nice banners. Love how you did the features in same font as Disaster. The special trailer is just awesome- that music needs to be in the game. NOA needs to release the game this year, but I think it'll be another EO.:(

Something tells me I'll be getting this game.

Also, $5 says Nintendo ends up announcing a NA release @ their October event

Holy shit the Special Movie is awesome!

I'm so interested in this game. Unfortunately, I feel like it's going to get bad scores or nobody is going to care about it...

Great OP and thread Jocchan!

That special movie is really kick-ass. The game will probably be a hodgepodge of poorly put together mechanics, but dammit, I'm gonna support MonolithSoft

Not only von der Leyen, but yeah not very pretty, it's even worse on DS boxes though. Then again von der Leyen and her posse did things far worse than bigger stickers.

As for the replayability, apart from the New Game+ the levels are also score based (at least that's what it looked like in one of the screens).

Sold!

Man, I love this game!!

Terrible example, with emphasis on "terrible".
 
Even though I'm not in America, hasn't there been a bunch of disasters there like hurricanes and whatnot? That's probably the reason they're delaying it there.

so they can start on Baten Kaitos 3

It's never happening. Ever.

;_;

EDIT: Just watched the videos on the main site. I'm a little wary of how the cursor moves in the shooting sections, but nothing else looks that offensive.

We only had one really bad hurricane and the American public is pretty much desensitized to hurricanes at this point. Plus that happened too recently to account for this "delay". It would take a school shooting or a 9-11 like event (or anything else that would captivate the media longer than its typical 5 seconds) to really delay something.

Do you really believe that would stop the media from crying against a game like this if it ever comes out?

Of course not but the media wouldn't even notice unless the game release the same week or something (the media's attention span is incredibly small). The only real big disaster related to this game that has happened recently was Ike but Ike was too soon to be the cause of any potential delay.

Am i the only one who really love the music?
Absolutely not. It was the special trailer who put this game on my radar again, mostly because of the Zimmer-esque soundtrack.

Just got my power back from Ike a couple hours ago.

What the... that's higher than I expected, especially from a Japanese source. I know it's Famitsu and everything, but still.

Wow. Especially because there are 9s. Monolithsoft is on a roll.

I know this is Nintendo Famitsu and all, but how have all of Monolithsoft's other titles scored on Famitsu? Anyone recall?

Edit: I saw the opening movie. I wonder if this will be like the Baten Kaitos games where there is only one CG movie in the whole game.

Really. Zero news, zero marketing, zero previews. It didn't bode that well.
OP updated, though.

MonolithSoft have always been extremely competent developers, and Nintendo delaying a game is usually good news. GAF is simply overly-cynical at times.

And is that third review saying it's difficult...? I hope so!
Yes, from what I understand they all basically say it's a bit difficult, has good variety and feels like a cool Hollywood movie.

Hell yeah! Now that's what I'm talking about. All I needed to read for a Day 1 purchase.

Bolded the juicy parts for you guys.

^ By that logic, it'll be as awesome as BKO :eek: ;)

And is that third review saying it's difficult...? I hope so!
My Japanese is very limited but 難度 (nando) is diffculty and 高め (takame) is high/height. But I wouldn't read too much into it, iirc Famitsu reviewers also mentioned that Twilight Princess was difficult :lol . And Famitsu reviews don't hold any kind of value anyways.
