Dragon Quest 8 to be annouced for ps2 next week..

Yep, its damn near confirmed now
99%

This could be the first 2 screens from the game on the internet
They are from a mag




It appears to be cellshaded.
It would fit the series, DQ7 used sprites all the way.
Except enviroments

Quiter says that those images come from next week\'s Jump (and were taken with a cellphone camera), on a one page article about Dragon Quest VIII. Also points out that you can see the bottom of the letters "PS2" in one of the screenshots. Mentions there are some comments from Yuji Horii, and that there is also an article on Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart for GBA. They say that Keifer (from DQ7!) is the main hero.

So there ya go,
After all the specualation, "If its going to be on the ps2, then why did they not annouce it already?"comments
it was on ps2..

Anyway, just a heads up
Have a nice day

I just can not get excited about any Japanese RPG\'s

I need a radically different action based non anime charater sytled RPG set in worlds that don\'t follow typical stereotyped Fantasy lands

I wish some company would make a solid RPG cut from a different mold, but I guess its about the money and franchises. There sure has\'t been many of these types of games on the PS2 besides the Summoner series, which I enjoy, but they fall short of greatness

Sorry had to vent

I\'m begging for my dream RPG, and no one seems to want to make it for me. I\'d do it myself but I can\'t afford such a drastic career change

no big deal, at least you don\'t call the RPGs stupid like most people who don\'t like them

Ddaryl, keep you\'re eye on Fable then, looking to be great.  

Well, more RPG goodness for the King of RPG console for this generation. hee-hee.

I\'m looking foward to it.

Anime+RPG+Nihon style=my kinda sushi!!!

:rolleyes: Come on, leave the N fanboys alone
They just pin all their hopes on the MEGATON annoucment..
god knows what will happen if that turns out to be a dud.

Besides, only the most jaded of gamers thought that it would be on a system other then the ps2 in the first place.

So take your comments elsewhere.. although there is not much to discuss about the game and its 2 cell phone pictures

Must feel good, since EVERYONE sticks it in you XBOX fanboy\'s faces.

Kind of like the fat kid at school who gets picked on by all the cool kids and goes home to make fun of his little brother.
