Chibiru May Cry sounds hilarious...

I'm pretty sure their usage of the word "Chibiru" is just a made-up word from Chibi+Debiru, but it also happens to be used as "pissed-on-my-pants" or "crapped-my-pants" :lol

Mikami's new game?

"Don't pee your pants!" :lol
 
--Sega Rally is Jan 12th, not Dec 1st.
--DISGAEA 2 - 2/23/06.
--That 'Over G' might just be a name change for World Air Force.
--Tengai Makyou Ziria for X360 delayed from Jan -> Spring.
--GT PSP delayed until Spring.
 
gamfront.de is reporting, that seiken denetsu 4 for ps2 is - there should be information in the new famitsu.

In case you missed the last few weeks, it's been pretty obvious PS2 was where it was heading:
1) the screenshots had serious aliasing
2) uses Havok engine (already licensed for several PS2 titles)
3) was in Dengeki PS2 last week
4) is in Famitsu PS2 this week

Maybe it is a beat'em'up with the afro baker and his chinese companion (won't mention names, I see they are changed in the USA)

What I don't get is why Square Enix didn't just come out and say Playstation 2.

Yeppers, also
Jun Suemi, known for his character work on Wizzardry and Front Mission 2, is handling the game's character designs. Famitsu introduces a number of new characters, who have a Front Mission flair about them. The game's scenario is being penned by Mitsuhiko Sawamura, of .hack fame. Janne Da Arc (sic!), a major Japanese rock group, will be performing the game's theme song.

what what what, I'm guessing MS is 'helping' in development costs.

I wonder if Clover's handling Chibiru May Cry? Capcom Studio 1 doesn't seem too interested in DS development (they barely touched GBA either, just making Minish Cap & Four Swords iirc). In fact, Capcom's handheld teams seem fairly split...

PSP
-Studio 1
-Studio 2
-Studio 3 (only ports)
-Studio 5 (only ports)

DS
-Studio 2
-Studio 4
-Clover Studio

Rumurs
(PSP) Biohazard Outbreak
(PSP) Devil May Cry: Dance of Sparda
(NDS) Chibiru (word play on Chibi-Devil) May Cry (VJ style proportions/characters)
(PS2) Shadow of Rome Complete Edition
Click to expand...

Looks like this was a fake.
 
Folks at the IGN boards have been running with this rumor too.. some verification would be nice.

I like the idea of a 2d Devil May Cry parody though.
PSP Outbreak and DMC would be cool too.
 
As I've said (probably numerous times already)

DMC for DS might be a rumor that might just end up being not true, but the DMC (PSP) one is head on.

The producer of DMC3 basically said the project was green-lighted.

The president of Capcom (I'm sure some of you remember the quote) "This is the future" when talking about the PSP, to not have one of his companies biggest franchise put on it would be very hypocritical of him, and finally in all of Capcom's IR releases (japanese website, they are made public) it says "expansion of titles on handhelds"--Megaman, Resident Evil, Devil May Cry (PSP).
 
Ok time for some REAL news:

- Seiken Densetsu 4 is indeed confirmed to be for the PS2. 4-page article.V Nothing on Children of Mana this week.

- Ys Strategy is said to be akin to Age of Empires. (wtf?)

- There's some new stuff on Magical Vacation but really, who the fuck cares. :)

- New VF5 character revealed: El Blaze

- Some other stuff about PSU, Gundam SEED EA vs ZAFT and RE DS that no one will care about.

YS Strategy DS
Growlanser V Generations
Click to expand...

Ys Strategy RTS = WTF :lol

Growlanser V = Looks HORRIBLE in 3D! It looks like a bad early-gen PS2 game or a PC game from 5 years back. >_<
 
ugh, now we get some real ugly games. even age of empires 1 looked a lot batter than y`s strategy. and the growlanser game ist 10 years behind the technical adavance on any playstation console.
 
The best part of this week's Famitsu is the revelation that you can now play PS2 games on your PSP... if you don't mind a few seconds lag time.

Well its for the DS and those screen grabs a just a bit to grainy and small to tell.

Heh, glad I'm not the only one who though Ys strategy looks like a crude version of Age of Empires 1.

So what is the deal about DMC PSP? Is that news true or bs?
 
There are cellphone games that look better than Ys Strategy, and that isn't an exaggeration at all. Marvelous seems to make 9 shit games out of 10, the 10th one always being a Harvest Moon game. :lol
 
It looks like you'll need your own nuclear power plant to run the Xbox 360 :lol

Small AC/DC btw....

Could it be that this is some weeks old? I think this was one of the first scans of the game and was already posted.

Capcom plans '10' PSP projects for 2006. You don't think DMC (Capcom's biggest seller of this generation) wouldn't be one of those 10 PSP projects...

Well, if that's not enough:

http://ir.capcom.co.jp/english/data/pdf/2005annual/Annual2005e.pdf

Capcom just flat out said "DMC for PSP" coming soon...
Click to expand...

Nice. I'm a little skeptical because Capcom has hinted at DMC on PSP for a long time without showing anything.

Not as cool as a new Ninja Gaiden game but should be a worthy substitute. ;)
