Not exactly blown away but I might have to pick this one up.

However, if Sting makes a sequel from the ground up for the Wii...

ye this did answer my question in the rpg thread.

but since atlus are doing this rpg, does anyone wonder if we'll hear an announcement for golden sun or the tactics ogre series from atlus any time soon now

and the game looks kinda kool by the way... but it does look like a darker version of the .hack games

Atlus has nothing to do with Golden Sun.  That's Camelot. 

Atlus doesn't make the Ogre Battle series either; I'm pretty sure Quest does.

I really trust Atlus's tastes in what they choose to localize, so I'll czech this out later. While I hate 3rd-person melee, I do love me some dungeon-crawling, and this looks neat so far. I wonder what all that death nonsense means plot and gameplay-wise.

Atlus used to produce orge games

it seems i am misinformed and my memory is very bad... well not for the ogre games anyways... my bad people

There's a difference between developing a game and localizing/publishing it. Out of all the games that Atlus releases in North America, only a few are actually developed by them. Again, Quest is the developer of the Ogre Battle / Tactics Ogre series, not Atlus.
