The Best Little XSEED Thread: Now With 100% More Tutturu☆

I know, but we still don't have a firm (heh) release date. Still. And it's not in their lineup. Granted, they're featuring new product, but a confirmation this is going to happen in my lifetime would be great.

The blog post about the Trails series clarifies things:

Yes, we are still in QA for Trails in the Sky SC for PSP (PS Vita/Vita TV compatible) and PC. And yes, it will also be out before Cold Steel, so you will be able to thoroughly enjoy the conclusion to Estelle and Liberl’s story before Cold Steel’s launch.

That's a relief (and a hell of a lot of QA at this point).

Looks like they're hauling all kinds of ass on Cold Steel, especially with the clock ticking for PS3.
Guess TiTS the 3rd may be on the back burner for now. I still think we'll see that along with Blue & Zero- only later.

I wouldn't doubt CS1 being out right in time for Christmas.

Finally, a couple videos of Tokyo Xanadu. The first one is going around and chatting, while the 2nd one gets to the good part- combat in a dungeon. I'm lovin' the JDK soundtrack so far. Note to XSEED: Please localize this and I'm in, Day One.

Beginning of the first vid gave me Persona 4 flashbacks. And that's how you get on my radar.

[MechDeus]

Grindy action dungeon crawler? I'd buy that at launch.

[A Robot Bit Me]

I just want a game that looks like that with that level structure that plays like GODHAND. I'd play it to completion in one sitting, then slowly disappear from existence with a smile on my face like Yoda.

Man, I hope I can somehow upgrade my Best Buy pre-order to that version. I don't really want to lose my 20% discount but I don't want to miss out on that...
