Don't post news until you're sure. I'm pretty sure this is fake! We'll see.

Still, he is right. I saw it posted at 2ch and posted this thread on a whim, but then I realized it wasn't posted by the same guy who usually posts it. I'll just edit the post if it's wrong.

It seems a bit too "random" (if that makes sense... it's not like someone's saying, say, Suikoden VI is coming to the PSP) to be fake, I'll just wait and see.

Star Ocean: Blue Sphere? Niiiiiice... I own the original but haven't played it yet. Wonder if tri-Ace is working on this directly, but I doubt it... they seem to have a LOT on their plate now. Anything to erase the bad taste SO3 left in my mouth is good by me.

No no no, you mistranslated the katakana. Suikoden VI is actually coming out for NTT and DOCOMO cell phones.

Makes sense after the first wave of Square PSX titles hit PSN.

2008. THREE YEARS OF HDTV. EVERY OTHER SHMUP DEV EXCEPT SEGA IS MAKING SHMUPS IN HD.

Speaking of other devs, where the fuck is Treasure's 360 shmup? :(

By the way Groo if you're still scanning, do you think you could do Tales of Hearts/Radiant Mythology 2 (if RM2 is in this issue) and Konami's 365 thing?

THE WORST PART IS, I JUST SOLD MY FUCKING PS2 JOYSTICK FOR 100 FUCKING YEN :'(

Well, at least it's Thunderforce. I've always found horizontal shooters to be much easier to play with a controller compared to vertical ones. Maybe it's just me, but I feel that a stick really helps a lot more when it's a vertical shooter.

Thanks for the scans Groo.

Hearts's environments remind me a bit Symphonia's, which is a good thing.
