FYI- Knight of Ratatosk is the jap subtitle, Dawn of the New World is the english subtitle. Way to go namco

Who cares what the subtitle is. I'm just glad America is getting the game, and the Wii is getting a good RPG. It would have been quite the mighty kick to the balls if we didn't get the game after the Gamecube got the last one.

I got my new Nintendo Power today, and the cover story happens to be the new ToS game. Imagine that. :P

ToS got a PS2 port(with additions) in japan. So there was still a small chance of it being a PS3 game.

OR PS2, due to the PS3's Sales, the Ps2 is still getting a load of games.

I'm happy about DotNW. I have mixed feelings about the monsters as partners though.

Fight against Lloyd???
Well this is interesting! He's probably pulling a Kratos near the end though.

From what I recall reading about it years ago, it was very minor additions. I think the only additions were "super moves" to all the characters.

The reason why America got ToS in the first place was because of the contract with Nintendo. The fact is, Nintendo is the one that localized it and published it here (similar to what Ubisoft and No More Heroes did). Unless a different team localizes ToS here in America, possibly side stepping the contract (I'd doubt it would), I wouldn't expect to see ToS on the PS3 period.

I don't see ToS 2 showing up on the PS3 either, seeing as how Nintendo still needs good 3rd party exclusives for the Wii. And even if ToS 2 did find it's way over to the PS3, unless they did a graphical overhaul, there wouldn't be any incentive to buy it.

They say it's gonna be a Wii exclusive.

The splash page has "For Wii Use" on it... -_-

I'm so getting this. And it's not the first time you fight Lloyd, in Tales of the World, you fight him serveral times. (3 or 4 times or so) And believe me, he's easier than Kratos (whom must be fought in story mode)...

Graphic-wise they seem to have removed the RO-styled characters and put in some actual 3D. I'd have to say at first glance at the screenshots this looks like Kingdom Hearts.

If you're talking about Radiant mythology, you only have to fight him once, and Kratos is optional.
