"Namco Bandai also unexpectedly revealed two new Dawn of the New World additions for the North American market: First, loading GameCube clear data from Symphonia randomly unlocks certain items, in-game currency, and other bonuses at the beginning of the game. Second, the North American release increases the available motion-controlled special-move shortcuts to eight, up from four in the Japanese version."

8 SHORTCUTS

This is the link Pro is talking about

Shortcuts are good! Save goodies are also good! (uhhh, hopefully my data is still intact on my memory card...)

I just ripped the music and movie contents from the Japanese disc image. I am so hyped.

How is the music for the game as a whole? Is it mostly rehashed tunes from the first game or is there a lot of original stuff?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #155 on:** October 21, 2008, 08:19:33 PM »

10% quieted rehash (flashback scenes?)
45% remixed
45% original

A decent sound overall. Extra layering and beaty-ness in the sound is evident and makes some of the original tracks from the first game feel flat/dry.

But there's no "Fighting of the Spirit," which leaves me very upset and disgruntled!

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #157 on:** October 21, 2008, 09:15:50 PM »

It's unofficially there, the melody was remixed/reworked. You don't fight the usual spirits anyway.

really??

oh well, if Fatalize is there, then all is forgiven...

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #163 on:** November 03, 2008, 10:05:14 AM »

Well it's NOT! ='D

There are a few new awesome tracks to try and make up for it, though, so it's not all bad...

My frothing demand increases.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #165 on:** November 04, 2008, 12:08:52 PM »

I. am. running. out. of. FROTH.

1. Bando Namcai doesn't have a decent site for the game yet.
2. There's no North America trailer/commercial of any form yet.
3. Waiting sucks.
4. No one's ever heard of this game.
5. Namco won't tell anyone about this game.
6. Mega Man DLC sucks.
7. NWR-sponsored REGGIE ROAD WARRIOR DEATH KART is scheduled tomorrow.

To pass the time, wet yourselves over footage from the last game.

After looking through the disc contents of Dawn of the New World, there's hardly any FMV animation. Only in the opening and the credits. Which mean, if there's any hawt springs nudity in the game, it'll be presented using in-game models.

For the curious, people should goto eBay and enter "lloyd kratos zelos" to find some reading material that Bill would approve of. Only for the curious.

Only if Zelos dies in it... >=|

I'll probably listen to "Three Legged Race" all day for the next two days while i froth.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #169 on:** November 10, 2008, 05:01:22 PM »

You could play Symphonia again.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #170 on:** November 10, 2008, 06:39:09 PM »

I've played it 10 times. More is unnecessary, and the GameCube controller is clunky and antiquated.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #171 on:** November 10, 2008, 06:43:25 PM »

Alright.

Why is there hardly any interest in this game? Does hardly anybody on this board play RPGs?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #172 on:** November 10, 2008, 06:55:30 PM »

Hardly anybody on these boards actually play games period, me thinks...

As for me, I'm picking the game up sometime this week, but probably won't have time to play it for a while... =(

Gylldas · « **Reply #173 on:** November 10, 2008, 07:03:00 PM »

I'm really looking forward to this game. ^_____^

Hopefully the thread will become more active when the game comes out. The timing of this game is perfect for me though as I'm just about done with Eternal Sonata.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #174 on:** November 10, 2008, 07:12:12 PM »

Well I am going to pick this up.I introduced TOS to some friends and we played co-op a few times.I am going to do the same with this game.
