Microsoft just had their Pre-TGS press conference. This press conference seem to be much more well done and with a more impressive line-up for the rest of the year and for early 2008. The games announced seems real heavy on rpg titles. This is no surprise since the lack of rpgs on the original Xbox kept the system from selling in Japan. Then I don't think it's even lack of rpgs that keeps the 360 from selling in Japan, but that's a whole different set of cultural and sociological reasons that could be discussed elsewhere.

Square-Enix, Tri-Ace and Microsoft are all partnering to develop and publish an original rpg IP for the 360 titles Infinite Discovery. They also showed the multi-platform rpg The Last Remnant.

Outside of rpgs there's a nice collection of upcoming XBLA games to be made available by year's end. One a trippy, classic PS2 title and another a classic Dreamcast shooter. The biggest announcement during the whole conference is that it won't be Tecmo who will be publishing the latest game from Team Ninja. No, Microsoft has inked a deal to publish Team Ninja's true sequel to one of the best games in the previous generation. Ninja Gaiden 2 will have a 2008 release.

Titles Shown

Ninja Gaiden 2 - to be published by Microsoft which means no ported Ninja Gaiden 2 Sigma for the PS3.

Lost Odyssey - is 95% done and will see a 12/6/2007 release in Japan with a February 2008 release in the North America and possibly Europe.

Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation - a title which got a very nice clap all-around from the press and guest. Once again it's being said that the game will be a 360-exclusive despite the continuing rumors that it won't be.

Infinite Discovery - to be developed by Tri-Ace (Star Ocean 3, Valkyrie Profile) and jointly published by Microsoft and Square-Enix. The fact Microsoft is going to be one of the publishing partners makes me think this rpg will be exclusive.

Rez - This psychedelic shooter from the early days of the PS2 will be released on Xbox Live Arcade.

Ikaruga - The same for this Dreamcast and GameCube classic shooter.

Microsoft's Tokyo Game Show Press Release

Link should have all the other games mentioned.

Yawn. The only thing interesting learned is that Infinite Undiscovery wants to be Majora's Mask.

Moving on to the real show. Need to find out if the Skies of Arcadia 2 rumor is true.

I really like what Tri-Ace has been doing with games lately-- very enjoyable. So I'm looking forward to this Infinite Discover game that is being made. It's nice to see that Lost Odyssey is near completion. I need to pick up either Blue Dragon or Eternal Sonata this weekend-- I'm getting very behind with 360 games. I just have no time right now to play them. :(

They're just porting over the original DC and GC version. Though I'm assuming they're retooling it to be all HD-fabulous and stuff. Ikaruga is one of the three GameCube games I bought and still own.

Thats a bit boring, but still, at least it'll look amazing on the 360, I don't have my older copies anymore.

At least with the 360 HD port and it being on Live I can now try impressing other players of my awesomeness and how I'm quite the bizomb on this game with my high scores. :)

I think that's doable. What about Skies of Arcadia 2?

In an interview some time back with one of the guys from Sega's Overworks studio, which made Skies of Arcadia, one of the guys mentioned that Skies of Arcadia 2 was in development. This was some time ago though, so until there's some credible announcement on it, I'm not gonna get my hopes up. I'd love to see it, since Skies of Arcadia was one of the best RPGs of all time, but no sense holding my breath.

Microsoft is finally getting it and putting a lot of good games on XBLA. There's another game coming to XBLA called Omega 5.

- Ryu Ga Gotoku 3 (Yakuza) announced for ps3. I would really like Yakuza 2, Sega of America!

- Eternal Sonata ps3 announced

- Katamari ps3 announced

- Fucking BANGAI-O FOR DS


Ninja Gaiden 2 looks like SEX.

Well, it should make PS3 owners happy that Namco Bandai will be porting over both Eternal Sonata and Beautiful Katamari. I think PS3 people will be more excited about the news on Beautiful Katamari than Eternal Sonata.

Ninja Gaiden 2 teaser

It looks like Microsoft may have a new tactic to use to garner more AAA-level exclusive titles not already owned by the publishers. By contracting Team Ninja to develop Ninja Gaiden 2 and putting up financial capital to publish it they instantly turned a third-party title into a first-party title.

I am really digging the addition of the scythe as part of Ryu's weapon choices. A couple of other weapons the screenies have shown have been the Wolverine-type claws and bladed boots. I do hope that they put up the press conference live demo footage up on Xbox Live sometime during TGS next week.
