hey... we dont know if its hard or not yet...
buuuut... i think its actually looking good now... these new features are adding a hell of a lot to gameplay...
its gone from 'demo noobs will ruin it...' to 'id buy it for the single player anyway...' which is a big step up :O

I'm still recovering from that power pose, RPG 2!

Yo-nin-de-susumu! Shinkashita R P G!!!!! This is our mantra, if you don't learn it, like Seinfeld, "No PSP2 for you!"

this will be highly awesome. I wonder what chaining is. and how the tech combo system will work. there certainly has always been room for it.

Hmm... anyone else notice the change to the SEGA intro in this one?
Looks like someone has been listening to the PSU/SEGA Podcasts - props to them, though!
Battle mode is also tons of fun. I played it a couple times at TGS and beat down all the Japanese press that dared go against the power of the melee FOnewearl.

I thought that as well about the Sega thing. By the way, it would be really cool if you could take some good photos of the PSP2 presentations this weekend. It seems they have some exciting stuff planned.
