Atlus?

They took the duty from lazy ass Sony who should've done it themselves, being that it's their game?

GOD BLESS YOU!

Now I love Atlus even more ;)

I'm very very happy. And I didn't have to import for $80 either :O

Not to be a wet blanket but is this not the game that Shane Bettenhausen called a horrible mess with a bad framerate? I don't know guys, I want a good RPG too but I think we should be hesitant...

uh, it's so far from a horrible mess. I love this game!

SWEET!!! Now You and MakingMusic can stop gloating about having it online, and hogging all the Demon's Soul Goodness :P

Hopefully by the time I get it I can hop in wit you guys. ^^

I just hope online play is region free.

Well this gives me little motivation to continue playing my import.

why? it's the same game.

at first, i thought i can only play online co-op with people who owns the Asian version, then i found out the majority of my co-op partners are japanese.  so i assume there is no region restriction for the online play for DS.

Here is Shane's preview: http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3170480&p=37

I believe he talked about it on 1up yours/ ListenUp podcast also.

I think I will hold judgment for now until I see it in action in N.A.



I'm just saying...

If it's region free, then woo! But I'm worried with two different publishers. Atlus may not use the same servers.

I hope so. I don't want to buy it twice.

Hmm, good point. Though I'd think Sony and Atlus would work something like that out, a part of the "deal" could be Atlus not having to pay for servers.

That preview was done 4 months before the game came out. The framerate issues were mostly ironed out, but i did get a few drops through the course of the game. There are plenty of full reviews out there that cover the final product in much greater detail than a two paragraph TGS preview, so maybe have a look at those.
