Konami announces Steel Horizon, WWII-era sci-fi naval strategy game for DS and PSP

Hands-on Konami DS yum


Early in the game you'll learn the stylus-based spell-casting that's very similar to what Konami did in Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow: each spell in the adventure has a specific symbol attached to it, and to cast them, you'll draw the symbol in the seal on the lower screen and activate it with a button tap. The engine recognizes even the sloppiest of doodles, so you don't have to worry about having the worst penmanship in history when you're trying to let loose a barrage of fireballs at enemies when the time comes.

Tao's Adventure takes place in a 3D engine that's very reminiscent of the engine used in Lost in Blue. Visually, the game's quite colorful and detailed with a very nice art style. The game's control can be handled via the D-pad or, even better, exclusively by the touch screen. Maneuvering the character is as easy as sliding the stylus around the on-screen directional circle, and to make the character run you simply double-tap the screen. Since Tao's Adventure doesn't require a whole lot of precise movement this touchscreen control works much better than, say, Rayman DS or Super Mario 64 DS.

Holy shits! =O

Steel Horizons has some MGS2 looking graphics, with the colors and all.
btw, don't the helicopters in DOA4 look like they're right out of MGS2 as well?

Putting DS and PSP screens next to eachother of the same game kind of make me a little sad, not gonna lie, really.

Good thing there are lots of 'yummy' RPGs coming out.

Actually, I'm pretty sure all those Steel Horizon shots are from the PSP version, based on the screen ratio and the not-great-but-too-good-for-DS polygonal graphics. The first few are probably FMV.
