Square Enix Mystery Bahamut game?

Not sure if this has already become a topic of discussion anywhere on this site, but I couldn't find any other threads on it. The only thing that's been released so far is a teaser site that will reveal more information on monday. Check it out:

If I could take a guess, the giant under Bahamut looks like it could be Alexander. I hope I'm not violating any rules or anything by making this thread.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

With my amazing powers of clairvoyance, I can predict with 100% accuracy that this game will be called Blood of Bahamut and is an action-RPG for the DS.

The game will also be revealed in Jump magazine several days before the countdown ends.

Wow, I think this is worth keeping an eye on

Wow, I searched it and you were right. Still don't see any other threads on here about it though, but thanks for the information on it.

Man, from the title I thought they were making another Fushigi no Dungeon game featuring CHIBI-BAHAMUT-CHAN ^____^. Thanks for dashing my dreams. TO PIECES.

I was speaking idiomatically.

... Is it bad that I was hoping for a Bahamut Lagoon remake/"sequel"?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.
Touching butts had been banned by the evil Headmaster Frond.
Suddenly, Tina Belcher appeared in the doorway.
She knew what she had to do.
She touched Jimmy Jr's butt and changed the world.

I don't know about a sequel, but a remake for the DS would be great in my opinion. I think I'd want them to keep the original graphics though, they have that old school charm to them.

You aren't alone. The teaser music on the site is a dead ringer for the style of BH's soundtrack...

Gametrailers.com - Blood of Bahamut - Japanese Debut Trailer

I'm at school now, so I don't have sound but from the look of it, it look a lot like Shadow of the colossus to me.

I never played or really know what bahamut lagoon was, so I can't comment on that.

the gameplay look interesting though.

Looks... kind of dumb, to be honest. Bahamut Lagoon was an SRPG, I thought the promo art for this game with the darkish, purple skies was a throwback to that game's plot. I guess not.

So what, it looks dumb because it turned out not to be the game you were hoping for? I mean sure, I get that you could be disappointed if something wasn't what you hoped it would be, but I really hope you're not calling it dumb looking because of that.

You broke the law.

Square-Enix threads should only be made when they announce a new Rad Racer.

You're inferring on a coincidence, Prime.

Fair enough, though perhaps utilising the power of the English language and using paragraphs would have made clear the separation of meaning.

Whilst I wouldn't at this stage say it looks dumb, I would agree that it looks a little odd, and if purely a succession of massive monster fights possibly not all that interesting.

So this game is a dungeon crawler with a giant boss at the end. Okay.

From the trailer it looks more like a dungeon crawler but with the big boss attacking you all the way through the level and with you blowing bits off it as you progress through the dungeon.

I'm not gonna argue that my assessment is the most intelligent at this point, just the honest one that would probably reflect more on my character than on the game. It just looks... as you said, odd. I'd like to know more, to be honest. A deal breaker would undoubtedly be clunky stylus controls and what not, but based on this small preview, I'm just puzzled but not to the point of a positive/good natured curiosity or inference.

It's more of a "What the fuck is this?"

So, I get emails from Square Enix from time to time, and this time it was about Blood of Bahamut, and included were some wallpapers. I grabbed the 1920x1200 since that's my desktop size, but I know others might have smaller-sized screens, so here's each of them for your enjoyment (?):

If the links don't work, let me know and I'll just upload them. I'll need more concrete info about this game before I decide if I want to get it or not. From what I've seen so far it looks interesting enough, but looks can be deceptive.

How ya doing, buddy?

I think it's a deliberate move on the part of Sqare to say that since they're still using the same stories they came up with early in the nineties for most of their games they're going to keep using the wallpaper templates they came up with then too.

It's like post-modern retroism or something.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I dunno, Pang. You have to give them props for the much under appreciated stamp filter. That takes balls. Tiny Asian balls.
