Speaking of avatars, is your username at all a reference to berserk?

I think that 4 player local and online has already been confirmed for the game.

Speaking of Berserk, that is really populair in Japan, right? And there is some fucked up and disturbing shit going on in that series, so not all is lost for this game getting somewhat of a following,

Wow. That is fookin MENTAL.
Well the art is really gruesome and you can't expect everyone to like it. Not everybody likes gore.
This game is 1st party right? Get these characters into PBR ASAP

YES!! DLC, retail, I don't care. Make it happen!
zodd the immortal and Guts the main character
It's pretty good I've watch some of the anime but I'm to busy for the manga( ending for the anime was pretty insane for me and some bits manga are pretty gruesome)
those soul games were inspire by it maybe this one as well?
looks like scans to me
What happens after you sacrifice them? Do they regen or do you just jam them back into your body? Also, wouldn't you get all wobbly and shit after ripping out your own spine? These are important questions.

the character didn't even have a name, it's most likely just a player created character
True, but I am under the assumption that such massive sacrifices should be used as a last resort, and different missions would provide different characters for the various stories of the book. I'm probably entirely off base, but the thought of it excites me.
Sounds good on papper but would suck if in the game.

So basically, if you sacrifice your eye, it will be replaced with monster eyes, sacrifice a hand and you got mutated hands etc, too much and you become like the enemies.your body mutates
correct its been stated

Actually, Gravity Daze has been selling pretty decently over here for a Vita title. It would also appear as though there are a solid number of folks who downloaded the game to boot.
As far as Vita games go, it's definitely doing well. A slow burner, but still.

Using your own body as a last resort sounds so badass. Can't wait for gameplay!
When you put it like that, using monster parts to replace your own body parts would almost put it on a parallel equipment path with Monster Hunter. In that game you basically progress through tougher monsters, getting monster parts to build stronger equipment. If you get stronger by using body parts from stronger monsters in this game, it would essentially be the same system :O
No you dont use monsters body parts, you sacrifice your own to use stronger magic. When you do that your body part you used becomes mutated. The monsters in this game are others that used their powers so much they became those monsters.
your body mutates
correct its been stated
Sounds interesting. Wonder if they'll let you to retain your abomination form so you can become new monster/boss other players fight?

I believe it starts around 11:00pm PST.
I'll take it over the drive-by-trolling.
This game seems too offbeat to draw early conclusions. But I'm curious about Mitsuda doing the music (if that's the case). Kept picturing the art set to "My village is number 1!" but I forgot he did Shadow Hearts, too.

somehow that reminds me of these jokers from Silent Hill:
perhaps its cuz both are half human half bird hybrid freakshows
Well they've yet to reveal if you grow them back/somehow get them back, if you dont its very probable.
I think its safe to say its a Monster hunter-like action game with emphasis on multiplayer and defeating monsters.
This looks straight out of Prototype.

Emphasis on defeating monsters? Don't you defeat monsters in 99% of games?
Yeah, there was even a chicken demon in the second book.

This looks so damn awesome. I'm just hoping they don't take long with the NA release.
Also, never realized so many people are squeamish when it comes to video games. This is just a creative way of expressing violence that is already saturated in every form of media that exists. I can't wait to get involved in the world, the monster designs already seem to have much promise.

The more I'm reading from everyone's updates/info, the more I want this game.

That's the thing - watched the vid for the new P2 DLC where you're throwing around helpless guys you're clearly more OP'd than but that's not gory or shocking whereas this is?

Hohohoho Nice one.
That hand reaching for the spine through the mouth reminds of this:
Likewise.
I would really like to see a lengthy gameplay trailer for this game.
How many hard copies have been sold? From what i remember around 50k which is nothing spectacular
Edit:i checked vgcrap it say 70k of hard cipies in japan, so around 100k with download. Not impressed. Ww it wont do,more then 500k. More reason to make ps3 versions day 1 . This way they just lose money
