I don't know if this is really good or bad news... I want to play the game in English... but that also means there'll be bad Square dubbing in the game also...

If true, does that mean the anime might not be far behind...

Though I hope it isn't picked up till the end of the series, evil Pirate that I am...

has that been confirmed? I thought it was still a rumor. I know about the whole domain buying thing, but I haven't heard any follow ups.

doesn't bang-zoom dub square's stuff? that's why spike spiegel and bubbles are in FFX/FFX2...

anyway, this is the perfect opportunity for SQUENIX to get into the anime/manga market. they already have FMA and I know enix owns GUU too. america is ready for GUU!

I'm sure lots of people are with us as well...:)

And as long as I buy the series in the end, no harm done. Heck, me showing Azumanga Daioh to my friend got 3 sales for the series, including the manga and volume 1...:)

Well, it's really like a pre-buy in this case. Now that they're publishing Azumanga (the manga) here, I'm going to buy it, something I would have never done if I hadn't seen the series before. (I think I've screwed somewhat with the verbs in this sentence...).

And back on topic, the screens I've seen about the FMA game are far from impressive. Sure, it's an anime game, but it's SquareEnix the one behind, not Bandai or Banpresto.

Don't put Banpresto in the same bag as Bandai, their latest "classic" PS2 Super Robot Wars (Alpha 2) is a deep strategy game with Street Fighter 3-quality attack animations, and SRW MX promises to be even better.

And yes, for what I played of FM Alchemist was quite bland looking (the train in Evolution 2 almost looked better than the one in this game) and the gameplay wasn't really promising... Even the game opening were just reused anime scenes. And Enix never had the overall high quality in games that Square had, and that has translated to Square Enix I think...

Banpresto also released Summon Night 3, which is the best looking SRPG I have ever seen. If the next Nippon Ichi game could have just half the quality of visuals of SM3, it would be incredible. SM3 also has a solid story (from the little I could understand) and the gameplay is fun, if a bit light compared to the rest of the genre.

They're also bringing Summon Night Craft Sword to the US, meaning I won't have to buy the pricy import.
