Release Dates - For December 2007

Wow, for the first time in the history of me doing releases for the blog there will be NO RPGs released in the month of December for North America. But Japan on the other hand is getting a crap ton o' awesome RPGs! Let us have a look see!

Japanese Releases
6th | Tales Of Innocence | For DS
6th | Lost Odyssey | For 360
13th | Chocobo no Fushigi na Dungeon: Tokiwasure no Meikyu | For Wii
13th | Spectral Gene | For PS2
20th | Final Fantasy IV | For DS
27th | Star Ocean 1: First Departure | For PSP
27th | RPG Tsukuru VX | For PC

The two big surprises for me, would have to be Star Ocean, and the new RPG Maker.
I had no idea they were working on a new RPG Maker, this is very exciting news for me. I hope it'll be released shortly after in North America like RPG Maker XP was.
Then of course there's Tales of Innocence, any long time reader of the blog can probably tell I'm a big fan of the series, and that I'm really looking forward to Innocence.
Finally the RPG that will get a whole bunch of sells in december "Final Fantasy 4" for the DS is just begging me to import it, who knows if I will or not.

Anyways all those great RPGs can be pre-ordered at play-asia!
Do check them out and help me out!

If you're interested in pre-ordering any of the games listed in this post, just click the name of the game. If you happen to buy through said means I'll get a bit of the cash, which is always helpful!
Also you don't just need to buy what's listed, if you follow one of the many links(or use the search bar) to play-asia on my blog and you happen to find something you'd like to import I'll still get a bit of the cash.

Fragile Info and Media

Yes this game is an RPG, though it may look like an action horror game, the game's producer says the game is more akin to that of a "Human Drama". Not much else is known about the game other then you'll be using a flash light and wooden stick, I assume the game will have a battle system of some sort, how it'll work is anyones guess. I haven't read anything saying the title is an action RPG, so we could be up for some old school turn based battle. One thing is for sure, the art and atmosphere of this game is really interesting!

Fragile will be out in Japan sometime next year. Until then, yet another Wii RPG to look out for!

Persona Anime

This is some very cool news indeed. It seems next year we'll be seeing an anime based on Persona 3, or rather a sequel of sorts to Persona 3. The title of the anime "Persona -trinity soul-" looks to be some cool stuff, and should be good if Persona 3 says anything about the series. You can check out the offical site by visiting http://www.persona-ts.net/

Also Famitsu has a post on their site featuring some info and drawings of characters which you can check out here http://www.famitsu.com/anime/news/1211732_1558.html

Afterschool Boy

Not Sure if this is an RPG, but it's on my radar!
