Okamoto: I'm making a party game! On his other action game:
He obviously never visits GAF."We're doing our best in developing these games for the Xbox 360," said Okamoto at the end of his presentation. "I'm not sure what kind of expectations people have, but we're hard at work to go beyond those expectations."
Ninety Nine Nights: Pretty much confirmed that it's all prerendered footage so far.
The game also features what Mizuguchi calls the "Multi-angle scenario," in which the player can assume the role of many different characters and see the game world from totally different POVs.
"By playing through the game from each character's perspective, the dramas that are taking place in this world will gradually become clear. We wanted to fuse drama into action game this time."
Faith... RISING!!!
