Here I am, hopelessly hoping for that Subaru from .hack//sign will be a playable character. She is my favorite character in the .hack series and has been since I was a little kid. Make it happen! Smilie

Would also be cool if Tear from Tales of the Abyss would be playable. Smilie She is also a very cool character!

The difference between illusion and reality is vague to the one who suffers from the former and questionable for the one suffering form the later.

Holy shit, a worldwide release??? That's amazing news, considering how shocked many people were that we got the first Project X Zone at all.

A shame that Tales of Vesperia characters are in this again, as Jude and Milla from Tales of Xillia 1/2 definitely deserve to represent Tales of just as much!! I've heard that Tales of Vesperia is very popular in Japan, though, so that may be the reason...

I hope they're avoiding the one flaw of the original Project X Zone, which is game length. I'm certainly someone who loves lengthy games, but Project X Zone could have easily been 20 hours shorter down to 30 hours. They've introduced all playable characters and mechanics by then, so there really wasn't much new to look forward to at all.

Gonna have to get around to the first game soon. Love that they've added Kazuma Kiryu and Leon. I always liked Natsu as well, but still need to actually pick up SCV at some point. I hope they add Ryo. It would have been awesome if they coulda crossed over with one more company, like Koei - would love some DOA characters.

Just noticed the British flag is ever so slightly wrong on the image for the video lol.

I am decidedly more interested in this sequel than I was by the first. Even if it has the same boring as all hell gameplay the characters this time are selling it to me.

Kazama F'n Kiryu! Yakuza is my most favourite thing ever. Also having characters from Resident Evil and Vesperia is cool.

I'll need to keep an eye on this.

I own all the consoles, ask me anything
