Square Enix announces new RPG
Final Fantasy makers reveal Code Age Commanders; action RPG set on a futuristic post-apocalyptic planet.

Back when Square Enix released Dragon Quest VIII in Japan last year, the game came with a trailer of a new project titled Code Age. Since then, Square Enix has started to run a manga series that carries the project's name in its monthly Gangan magazine in Japan. According to the latest issue of Famitsu magazine, Square Enix is also developing an action RPG titled Code Age Commanders for the PlayStation 2, which will have the same setting as the manga, but will feature different characters.

Hmmmm, so which one was their announcement, this or Grandia III? I never knew Squenix had a manga series of this running, so I'm at a loss as to if it'll turn out any good. The team includes people from FFX, FFXI, and....Unlimited Saga.

The article also likes to note that this time the game will be run by people from the art field, as opposed to project management. I guess the game will never be completed then, but will look gorgeous

You can find 5 scans of the game at squarenethttp://squarenet.gamigo.de/main.php?site=sn-news along with the Grandia scan.

For all of you who wish to see what the "Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles meet Avatar Tuner" style would give.

That's not a bad comparison, really.

I can't say I like the style though, personally.

And, one more COMMA,

Actually, I said the same thing. The designs/style looks great, but I don't know what to make of the game yet.
