One more thing. There's nothing in the scans of the game that says the game is on rails or else we'd have heard it from J-GAF right now. The only way that 1up could come to the conclusion that it's on rails is from the vids. The vid shows it's like EDF so it's not on rails.

In the Zangeki vid I noticed there were targets in the back of the character. That's not how on rails works.

So it's not on rails /thread

I don't see how this makes the idea of being on rails impossible.  If character movement around the field is on a set path and you control the camera that could fit your description and I would still call that "on rails"
