We're supposed to have new trailers for just about every upcoming Square-Enix game at TGS, October 9th-12th. That includes The 3rd Birthday, Dragon Quest IX, Dissidia, all three FF XIII games, both upcoming Kingdom Hearts spinoffs, and CTDS. The big rumor is that Kingdom Hearts III will have an official announcement and trailer at the show, but that's just a rumor (hence why it's in this thread).

Also, one curious item is that Dragon Quest IX is still dated for 2008 in Japan. It has no official date, no playable demo anywhere, and very few details about the game in general. It's going to have a trailer at TGS without any demo, and it's still coming out this year? What?

The male main character of FF XIII, featured in a few recent trailers, is named Snow.

First Lightning, and now Snow. As if Cloud and Squall weren't enough.

(I almost newsposted this, but the info is so small in quantity and trivial in nature that I decided not to. There's some Agito info in the RPGFan article as well)

They just keep getting more and more creative, don't they?

Yesterday, I heard that Nintendo was possibly going to remake Pokemon Gold and Silver. Linkie
There is some believable stuff in there. I don't know about anyone else, but I'd love to get a remake of the second gen. It was my favourite!

Square-Enix has a new countdown clock: http://www.bahamut.jp/

With a GIANT Bahamut and Alexander in the background (that might be some kind of giant thing besides Alexander). Some people are saying we could have a sequel to Bahamut Lagoon on our hands, but it could be any number of things. Your guess is as good as mine as to what the hell it is. We'll find out Monday.

Fancy countdown clocks are awesome. It's the way video game announcements are done in style. I can't wait to see what it is!

Well, it turned out to be a DS game called Blood of Bahamut, with visuals that are simply too good to be a DS game. Square-Enix sure knows how to make a pretty cutscene.... There's now a trailer and a logo on the bahamut.jp website.

*Sighs with disappointment*

I got my hopes up for an exciting console game sad.gif

Since my neither my internet nor I can translate, it looks like I'll just be waiting to get the scoop on this game... hopefully it'll be more interesting than I expect.

What in heaven's name is with all these gorram countdown clocks!?It's a Sega one this time.

Of course, I see that ship's helm thing spinning around and I immediately think Skies of Arcadia 2. We'll see... in two weeks.

Me too. I'm getting tired of this. I don't want to see another countdown clock for at least a couple weeks (when I forget about saying this!).
