For those playing at home, Resident Evil DS and FFIV DS stand at 1Gb.

I believe it's the second largest DS game, after ASH: Archaic Sealed Heat. However, I don't believe 2 Gb is that big of deal. It's only 256 MB of flash.

World Destruction: 6 scans, story details, new movies

At first I thought the entire game was going to have anthro critters running around until I read the paragraph. Whew. Those governing animals look pretty bizarre, especially the wolf and that crazy thing to the left of the bald eagle. WTF is that supposed to be? The official website has better pics of them under the World section. The shark (the one at the top) is cut off in the scan. At least the playable characters are normal-looking, minus that crazy pirate bear.

The battle system looks pretty neat if the screenshots are anything to go by. I think it's pretty cool that the battles utilize both screens.

Scan says it's an elephant.

That is an elephant? I never would have guessed. It looks horrible at any rate. The snake looks like a girl in a costume too.

So apparently World Destruction is turning into a classic Disney Movie. Seriously, the crocodile belongs in Bedknobs and Broomsticks.

Except Disney's characters usually look a lot better than those 'governing animals.' XD

I agree though. Those pics are pretty depressing. Makes me wish I hadn't seen them because they're turning me off from what excitement I've had for this game. Let's hope the gameplay/story/whatever makes up for what we've seen here today.

World Destruction

I will say one good thing, I love the track that plays on the official site. Mitsuda has done a good job with that track at least.

Ripped it from the site, get it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=H0MYEC91

Also the anime version is airing in Japan and its being subbed by a few groups. From what I heard the anime has the same characters and general settings, but the story is different. Same thing with the manga adaptation. It makes me wonder who created the original concept and basic story...

I watched episode 1 on a lark. Morte is one tough chick so far, and Maaya Sakamoto does a good job on the voice. Not impressed with the main protaganist personality so far... I can say the game will likely have a good strong female lead instead of the generic soft white mage cliche.

Membership sites? No thanks...

Be more of a furry. I don't think you discuss animals enough yet. Do you think you can do more of that? Discussing animals? I never see you do that. Could you do that a little bit? I'd be interested in your taste in animals. Since you never seem to express that.

Game doesn't look any stranger than FF XII or any Squeenix crap. Seeqs and Bangaa and all that rubbish.

Megaupload is not a membership site. Input the letters you see at the top and the click Download. Then wait 45 seconds. Its not that hard to use.

Well as well answer everyone at once.

I like how you always mention 'furry' to me in every one of your replies. I used to be a furry but not anymore. If I was a furry, I would've been happy to see these animals in the game but my post was pretty negative towards them. Besides, I only talked about animals in my last post because that was the only update given to us by Hindman. What else would I be talking about? I'd much rather the game have NO anthro animals in it aside from the bear, and if it had to have animals, than at least make them look better than what I'm seeing in those scans. I mean, the main characters look great, so why can't that apply to these animals as well? If you still persist in calling me a furry, then please do so. I can't exactly stop you.

I didn't know the anime series was already out. I'm DLing both eps right now. I'll see how that goes.

P.S. I hate Megaupload but yeah, it's not a membership site.

There's a subbed anime for this? If it doesn't suck, I'd love to get my hands on it. How many eps are there, and how many have been translated from moon language?

World Destruction Torrent links

13 episodes in total will air. So far 3 episodes have been subbed, though GoodBadsubs use mkv with ass. subtitle file.

Most of the voice cast is the same as the game except for two. Full cast list here:

World Destruction (video game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

As you can see, its practically a A list Seiyuu cast.

Anime Staff

Director: Shunsuke Tada
Series Editor/Script: Masahiro Yokotani
Character Design: Keita Matsumoto
Music: Yoshihiro Ike
Animation: Production IG
Production: Sega/Geneon Entertainment

Please note that the anime, game and manga will use the same concept and characters, but the stories will be different. If people want Kato's work, wait for the game etc.

And I like Megaupload only because files stay there for ages. I can download stuff even if that file was uploaded a year ago. Other than this convient fact, the site is obnoxious and the pop ups suck, but I won't have people constantly nagging for re uploads.

The anime is looking more or less like it's going to be as mediocre cliche as the game apparently. The only thing good its got going for it so far is that Production I.G. is doing the animation. So if nothing else, it'll look really fucking good.

I dunno, some people are saying the animation takes a nosedive in episode 3, and the plot in episode 3 isn't too impressive either, at least from what I have read on a blog...

Not to mention theres no way they can cram a long complex story in 13 episodes anyway. I'll probably download it when the entire series is subbed just to see if its good... But I have a feeling the game will have a much longer development than the anime.

Not to mention the main character will be able to combat in the game, whereas in the anime it looks he's gonna be completly useless. Even Miyano's voice can only make him appealing so far...

Also Morte looks alot taller than Kyrie in the anime than in the game. And alot of ribbons on her boots and frills are missing in the anime version of Morte.

Personally, the anime outfit looks better than the above. Even the ribbon on her weapon is missing.

Episode 3 has some slight prod. value issues here and there but a lot of it is just unexpected super deformed character shifts, which I could not stop laughing at.

The show gained a lot of charm in episode 3, I hope they can keep it up.

Still looks beautiful as all get out. God bless I.G.

I'm really looking forward to this one. The anime was pretty enjoyable so far, but I'm far more excited about the game. Hope it won't fail my high expectations.

I'm downloading the anime of this, I hope it's good. Any announcement on a NA release date of the game yet?

Square Enix Music Online :: World Destruction Premium Soundtrack :: Album Information

A premium soundtrack will be available to people who pre ordered the game in Japan. The announcment also confirms that this is the game Mitsuda was recording with the Czech Philharmonic. If anyone can upload the soundtrack when the game is out on September 18, 2008, that would be nice.

No North America release announcement was made so far, so right now it's still a JP only release.

The premium soundtrack will be similar to the Soma Bringer Premium Soundtrack, in the fact it will only offer a few samples. I suspect a true soundtrack release in November (or sometime thereafter). But yes, I'd love for someone to upload this small sampler as well!

Siliconera » World Destruction (That DS RPG From The Xenogears Staff) Shattering North America In The Future

Rebalancing diffuculty thanks to Japanese players feedback? Awesome. Glad to hear that not only are we getting the game, but we are also getting a improved version.

This also explains why there is no news on a full soundtrack release. Mitsuda is probably waiting till hes done with the US version, and then release a complete OST.

The premium bonus soundtrack will have to made do for now.

It's probably not rebalancing the difficulty so much as adding some. It's not uncommon for western versions of games to be made much tougher than the Jap originals. Japs must suck at computer games or something.
