Well it's great that the barrier will not attract spells. :lol Culdcept translations FTW.

Dr. Kitty Muffins · Nov 6, 2006

This is my most anticipated Xbox 360 game. The PS2 version is simply great and a must own for gamers IMO.

My youn ger brother and his wife may yet get a 360 just for this game. I have to keep working on them.......

krypt0nian · Nov 6, 2006

One of my MOST anticipated games coming along.

YOU BITCHES BETTER BUY THIS.

AlanHemberger · Nov 6, 2006

Looks hot

Speevy · Nov 6, 2006

Culdcept is probably one of my top 3 favorite PS2 games. I'm going to own this on day one.

Culdcept matches on Live = AWESOME.

Triz · Nov 6, 2006

I've never even heard of this game and it looks great....

Thanks for the heads up.

GDJustin · Nov 7, 2006

ENGLISH RELEASE CONFIIRRRRMED!

THIS NEWS JUST MADE MY DAY!!

/isamu. Seriously though I really am that excited.

MoxManiac · Nov 7, 2006

I need a 360...or a PS2 or 3 release.

CULDCEPTTTTT

dirtmonkey37 · Nov 7, 2006

I don't get the hype on this game......wasn't there one of these on the Dreamcast?

Saturn I think. And these are the perfect mix of Magic and Monopoly, both of which I love.

I DONT UNDERSTAND! WHATS GOING ON?

Rummy Bunnz · Nov 7, 2006

Wow. I'm suddenly a lot less angry over having my PS3 preorder canceled. I NEED A RELEASE DATE.

It's currently scheduled for Q1 2007, unless of course Namco actually gives it a release date.

Dr. Kitty Muffins · Nov 7, 2006

I just emailed my brother a link. He and his wife are Culdcept fanatics. They even bought art book.

Also, does it not look like Namco put .hack's art team on the project? Its possible now with the Bandai merger.

Anyways, I will own this game. The new card packs online will be awesome and, hopefully, fairly priced.

I expect to see it bundled with the 360 in japan to increase sales!

Heck, a US bundle wouldn't be bad. The game itself is a good way to encourage people to both play online and use microtransactions more.

It's a very very niche game, but very good. Sort of like Monopoly combined with Magic the Gathering (basically every time you land on a property, you fight it out with cards).

I hope it gets released in the US, but the PS2 one seems to have flopped (at least the company that published it is out of business, I think. At least their US branch).

Soul4ger · Nov 7, 2006

One of my reasons for getting an X360.

Stoney Mason · Nov 7, 2006

This game can't come fast enough.

NME · Nov 7, 2006

duckroll · Nov 7, 2006

These screens were released back at TGS. No one knows how they really came about and I think they might have been pulled at some point when someone released that it was a boo-boo. Funny PR.

sugarhigh4242 · Nov 7, 2006

Having not played the PS2 game, i can only comment on the graphics.

And they aren't very nice.

It's a Japanese X360 game, what'd you expect?

The game should be balls out entertainment though. Or was I the only one who played the last one sans-pants?

duckroll · Nov 7, 2006

Considering the previous Culdcepts looked like SNES games, this is somewhat of an improvement visually! :lol

Looks nifty. Hopefully they print more than 5 copies this time so a person like me can actually find the freakin thing.

Culdcept II was on the Dreamcast.

And the English version was announced at E3 with the trailer on Marketplace. Didn't anyone notice... :/

Sgt. Killjoy · Nov 7, 2006

There are plans to sell more accessories over the Xbox Live Marketplace.

I SWEAR TO GOD

Victrix · Nov 7, 2006

Yayyyyyyy!

Reasons to buy a 360 +1

Is this game online? Looks kind of like Magic, am I correct?

It's the sexy love child of Monopoly and Magic: The Gathering.

Victrix · Nov 7, 2006

Shaved Moustache said:

Not really... some sort of fantasy card game meets monopoly, kind of

Dig up the PS2 version for cheap and try it, it'll be easy to see if you like the gameplay. The big deal with Saga is online play.

Coming.

Gigglepoo · Nov 7, 2006

Wait... what!? Coming to America? Are you sure? Heck, I'd settle for a region free Asian version. Best Co-Op game on the PS2 by a wide margin, possibly the best Co-Op game of all time.

Shaved Moustache said:

Yes, it's online. Versus matches and ranking.

Not the PS2 versions, but the X360 one. I am fan#1 of the PS2 versions but I doubt they will be coming here. Frame rate issues killed approval. (Yes, that's a huge miss of the POINT, but it happened)

I know, I was talking about Earth Defense Force X. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. Is there a publisher announced? Rough release date? This seems too good to be true.

Man, it will be so weird to play Culdcept and Earth Defense Force on my X360. And Viva Pinata for that matter. Here's to variety!

Chassis · Nov 7, 2006

Mmmmm... Culdcept.

Jonnyram · Nov 7, 2006

I wonder what are the chances of the Japanese release including English?
I mean some devs do, some don't, and if there are English screens in circulation, it can't be ruled out, right? *crosses fingers*

vireland · Nov 7, 2006

"Coming" is all I can say. Figure Japanese release date + the usual localization timeframe for this kind of game and you'll have a pretty good idea of when.

The dreamcast version of the game had quite a bit of english in it. Iirc, only the story was in Japanese.

Having this and the new Earth Defense Force released in the US is a amazing thing though. Two incredible, underrated series deserving of English speaking lovin'.

I've already preordered the japanese version, but getting it in english sure would be nice!
