Cannot freaking wait. The game looks so slick.
I’ll be buying this day one… and if that means waiting a bit longer to get SMG2, fine by me.

Pretty pumped for the game, even though playing the original on my Wii was a bit underwhelming (amazing for an N64 game, of course, but time generally doesn’t treat “cutting edge” graphics or single-stick shooters well).
I’m not so attached to the art, though. I like that it’s hand painted, but both the character poses and composition are a bit awkward. It doesn’t convey the general aura of badassery I get from the game overall.

Why do companies feel the need to change titles? I understand if certain titles are copy written in different regions, but if Successor to the Sky was such a bad subtitle, why use it in the first place? Why change it to Star Successor? Just seems weird and unnecessary to me.

@Ujn they had to do something to justify the wait

I’m not sure why it was a surprise that Sin and Punishment 2 would be coming out in America; it was announced at last year’s E3.

@andy:
Plenty of games have been shown at E3s and then never brought out here. Nintendo of America has passed over a ton of games from Japan over the past couple of years – Fatal Frame, Disaster, and Another Code R being major ones.
I know Disaster was announced and shown at at least one E3.

Ujn Hunter: I think its because they want to prevent the problem of consumers/people confused over what happened to S&P1 and I’am talking about consumers/people who don’t know about S&P1 being on VC.
