"Arcturus licensed by Nihon Falcom?" , posted Thu 1 May 23:08

As seen on Insert Credit, Falcom is deciding on making a Japanese version of the Korean game Arcturus - The Curse and Loss of Divinity by Gravity (Ragnorok Online).

What I am uncertain is if this is a PC only port or if Falcom is planning a PS2 release like they did with Y's Eternal...

I got the opportunity to play the English demo of Arcturus which was available on Sonnori's website about 2 years ago. It is an excellent game, the original Korean version was 5 discs long!

My interest in Arcturus started when I played a Korean dance game called EZ2Dancer which featured a song called Arcturus, the song itself featured all the images of the original opening intro. Makes me wonder if Falcom will scrap the intro or make a new one with Japanese lyrics instead of Korean.

I cant wait, hopefully someone will patch this game like Nightwolve did with Y's Eternal!

I really should have worded my news piece better, because there have been a few questions.

It's definitely just for PC right now, and in fact, it's not Falcom who's releasing Ys Eternal to PS2, but digicube. Now, if Ys does well, someone might pick it up. Actually, I'm surprised it hasn't already been ported to the console in Korea.

And also, there's an English language demo floating around somewhere. It was released at E3 2000, I believe. I still have it but...I'm definitely not putting a 580 meg file on my server. Hope you can find it ^_^
