Twilight Syndrome: Legend of the Forbidden City DS
I don't know if Grasshopper Manufacture has something to do with it Twilight Syndrome: Legend of the Forbidden City (DS/Spike/7-24) * New work within the series * Main character, schoolgirl Mizuki, is led on a chain of horror after receiving a strange chain mail. * Mizuki: UENO Mami, Riko: HORI Yuri, Reika: SHIHONO Ryo * Scrolling right and left, you can examine interesting places, checking the truth of rumors http://weeklygamejournal.blogspot.com/2008/04/famitsu-411.html http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=274783

At first I was like "Ah SHIT! Best news evar!" Until I realized it was Twilight Syndrome. (Not Moonlight Syndrome.) Big news for TS fans. I'll say that much. (Unfortunately TS seems to only be big in Japan.) I doubt GHM has anything to do with this game. They're already working on Fatal Frame. TS has nothing to do with the Kill the Past universe. KTP= MS, SC, SC 25 Ward, & FSR. K7 is loosely affiliated, and No More Heroes is said to not be related at all. I don't believe Suda 51 though. He wasn't clear when he said the black guy in NMH looks like Garcian, but isn't Garcian. Suda said there was a special reason for why he looks like Garcian, but he won't divulge any details. (Shit in my mind that means the Black man in NMH was probably a host body made to look like Garcian. If that's so, than that's some bullshit. Trying to say the games aren't related, but yet he's prolly hinting at SC/FSR like plot devices.) I would like to see a true sequel to Moonlight Syndrome though. I want confirmation that Yayoi from FSR is the same Yayoi from MS. http://killer7.3dactionplanet.gamespy.com/Yayoisamein1.jpg They sure as hell look, & act alike. Sumio Mondo & Sumio Kodai are one in the same under a different alias. So I can't see why Hanayama Yayoi & Itsushima Yayoi can't be either. Then again Emir & the Black hitman in NMH aren't the same people at all. This is why that la-*test*-('") Suda interview pisses moi off, lol. I was sure that there was a pattern forged between four titles (MS,SC,SC 25 Ward, & FSR), yet Suda breaks his circular pattern & says some random ass shit when referring to random Black hitman in NMH. I sometimes wonder if Suda just says misleading shit to keep people guessing, heh. There's plenty of possibilities for a Moonlight Syndrome sequel. (Especially when you take into account that MS takes place in the same exact universe/timeline as Silver Case.) The funny thing about MS is that the two surviving protagonists died during the intro level in Silver Case. Yayoi was an antagonist during MS. It would kick ass to see her again, because she has supernatural powers in MS, and she walks around dressing like a hoe in FSR. (& exposed camel toe in MS, lol.)

Ah man, I should've looked at your reply earlier. This game looks good. It reminds moi of the eerie style that Moonlight Syndrome used. (Mainly because MS is Suda 51's alternate universe side story of the TS games.) http://www.siliconera.com/2008/04/14/spike-scares-ds-owners-with-twilight-syndrome/#comments I wish I could submit a comment to Siliconera so I could tell them how the game plays. (They block my posts for some reason. I don't really know why either. It's not like I ever diss them or anything. I just deliver correct information. It's kinda funny how they let the guy from Insomnia post, and all he ever does is insult them, lol.) If I could comment, this is what I would say, "YOU ACTUALLY DO HIDE in Twilight Syndrome games. Hell you don't kill anybody at all in TS/MS games." In fact they have horror filmmaker Osamu Fukutani as part of the team. I haven’t seen any of his movies and the Last Supper looks too grisly for my tastes. I don't know who Osamu Fukatani is, but if the cover for his la-*test*-('") movies is any indication. Then I'll have to say that the la-*test*-('") entry in the TS series is in good hands. It's guaranteed to be just as grisly & fucked up in the head as Moonlight Syndrome. http://news.dengeki.com/elem/000/000/073/73809/index.html I hope this game gets localized. TS looks more like the original Persona (Revelations/ Ibunroku) game than the Persona games that came after it.

chances of coming stateside?
