New Games to anticipate! New Suikoden and God Eater 2

I am very much excited after hearing some of the games I love will have another kick for next year. At the recent Tokyo Game Show 2011, Konami announced a new Suikoden game and Namco Bandai announced a sequel for God Eater Burst still under working title of God Eater 2. Both games will be release for the PSP, which is a big plus for me since I'm more in playing PSP games.

First of, Suikoden... finally, they made a new Suikoden game! I've been waiting for ages for this! If you guys didn't know, I love the Suikoden series. It's one of my all-time favorite RPG back in the Playstation days. I just love how the gameplay and story were made in the game.

The new Suikoden is titled Genso Suikoden: Tsumugareshi Hyakunen no Toki or in English, translated as Suikoden: The Woven Web of a Century. The subtitle doesn't make sense for now. At this point, there weren't any official gameplay footage revealed except for the teaser trailer that only shows an Anime clip. Another thing is, this new Suikoden game is probably be a different series than the original.

Next is God Eater 2.. I played the first and I really like it. I always thought that there will be a potential sequel for this game... and here it is! The most notable here coming from the teaser trailer is that the visual design is totally change to be more like on par with Final Fantasy Type-O's design. There's no official gameplay footage on this yet but there were some images already shown. Base on the trailer and photos alone, GE2 introduces a new Aragami monster and 2 new weapons, a Charge Spear and Burst Hammer as what they have called it. The premise of the story is also revealed: the story sets 3 years after the first game and it will focus to a certain group of God Eaters named Blood.

Both Suikoden and God Eater 2 is scheduled to be release next year. Nothing much to say about it for now but I'm very much happy in the news. My only hope though is that these titles will be localized for US release in the future. For now, I'll keep tabs on this games.

Until then!
