Let's hope they improve the graphics. PS1 visuals do not a good game make.

Yeah, I remember FFVII definatly sucking with those PS1 visuals. Same goes for Resident Evil 2.

Lots of new screen shots just went up over at Magic Box.

And a quick response to the comment about PS1 graphics: I prefer games with hand drawn 2D graphics over super detailed 3D graphics. I'll take Street Fighter over Tekken or Chrono Trigger over FFVII any day. And sometimes story and game play have more to do with the enjoyability of a game than graphics, there are still some SNES games that I feel can't be topped today. It's all about preference of course, but don't confuse "next gen" with "better".

Well, I'm all over this one (though I frankly feel that I don't have time for it...) Smile

I have soooo many games left unfinished - even though I finished Disgaea, between work, school, manga, and anime, I have little time for anything else.

Disgaea 2 is not set in the Netherworld, but in a "normal" world where the Overlord Xenon placed a curse on its inhabitants, transforming them into demons. Only one person remained unaffected: a young man named Adel, who decides to take a stand and become the hero of the story. He concocts a summoning ceremony with the intention of confronting Xenon, but instead summons the overlord's only daughter, Rosalinde. She is a spoiled, 17-year-old demon girl, and to complicate matters, she is only Level 1 and completely naive about the world. Thanks to this little slip-up, Adel must return Rosalinde to Xenon, and that is where the adventure begins.
