Sugoi has some new pictures of the Genso Suikoden 4 Limited Edition Box Set. Not only are the book and the rune keychain absolutely beautiful, but the box art is really surprising. Generic RPG Her--- errr, uhhh... "the main character" actually looks kind of bad-ass.

I don't see any of the recurring Suikoden characters that I know of in the box art, though, so I'm guessing that the early shots that seemed to suggest that they would have a larger role were actually doing no such thing.

Not just nice

Very nice

When is the U.S release on this again in the Fall?

Who are the confirmed returning characters so far? All I know of are Viki and Jeane. And those two seldom had very storyline-important roles to my knowledge. :P

Ted and Yuber are in it too.

And I also thought the hero looks cool on this cover. Too bad he doesn't look like that in game.

A few months ago, some art was released that displayed Viki, Jeane, Leknaat, and one or two of the other "recurring, but never important" characters very prominently among the new characters. In addition to that, it seemed as if Jeane was featured just as much in the screenshots as any of the new main characters. So it looked like they might have an expanded role in this one, especially given the game's time frame, but apparently they don't.

Leknaat's in the game, as well. Seems like it will be more than just a cameo this time.

It looks cool because Konami cleverly hides the hero's pantyline with the game logo :P

I'm pretty sure I saw Belle in one of the screenshots. I guess that would mean Gadget probably shows up in some form too.

Well, there's a girl that looks like her in the game, but it's not exactly the same girl, because the game is supposed to take place before GS1.

Also, I stumbled onto this while looking for that screenshot. It's kind of interesting.

Yeah, what I meant to say was "Belle's hammer", but I had a brain fart. Though I still think with that item in there, Gadget or a Gadget prototype is probably a go.

Ooo, SARS! Rumor spoilers, the pinnacle of fandom. Nekobolds... clever

Seeing that list, I had a random thought. If Konami ever royally messes up the Suikoden storyline, all they'd have to do is make Viki sneeze and history is changed forever.

Ooooooooh

That site is actually very nice. Just for this alone a Map featuring the geography of the entire "known" Suikoden land.

Suikoden World Map

It is one of the biggest reason I love the series the continuity of the lands
