Hope it's good, they have a lot on their shoulders, like, an entire universe plus legions of fans.
I don't really see how fun this could be. I mean you do what A, B, B, X and your enemies are dead ? Hasn't there already been some HnK fighting games before?

If they made this like the best parts from God Hand and gore then it could be epic. The fighting game was sweet, kinda broken but still sweet.
Me wa SHOCK.
So incredibly SHOCK.
Yes!!!
Aaaaaaaaatatatatatatatatatatataaa!!!!!!

It's not like if they fuck up it'll be the first bad FOTNS game.

I know, i'm exaggerating. Just saying it would be nice if this new one was really good. Funny side note, my friend owns Last Battle. He bought it as a kid and didn't know what he had until many years later when we became FOTNS fans. He still has yet to beat it.

pretty much hit it on the nail there.
Really, just use godhand's system and tailor it to the HnK universe. And add lots of gore.

Btw, it seems Hokuto Musou will be a licensed Dynasty Warriors, like Gundam Musou. Hopefully better.
I don't think the Japanese version would have gore yet it'd get cut in the American version. If anything it'd get cut in the Japanese version.
But yeah, use God Hand's system with tons and tons of gore.
It's going to be licensed? :(

You're right, it was actually the original version that censored stuff like the Head Slicer.
If only the video clip involved Kenshiro destroying someone.
Wonder if it'll be brought over. I really need to read FotNS. I only ever saw a couple episodes of the anime on Starz YEEAAAAARS ago.
Koei USA sent siliconera the details on the game earlier today

It looks like an alright brawler.

Slaps forehead
I should have realized sooner!!!
That life gauge..
all those enemies on screen!!
The word Musou in the title!!!
This is a HnK game that uses the Dynasty Warriors engine!!
Lets hope it's ridiculously gory!!
[EDIT] actually reads article, yup! it's confirmed! The guy making it said he want's to stick to the series ultra violence.
I'll have to hold back any negative judgments I have towards the Dynasty Warriros engine for now. I'll wait to see how this one turns out
This looks pretty ballin'. Been waiting for a Fist of the North Star game and it's looking good so far! Can't wait to hear some more info.
Meh Quality Gameplay Video NkpwZvxWWLw&

Thanks much for the video, looks promising. When the gore kicked in I had a huge smile on my face.
Its a true Fist game!!! Hope this one reaches America
gameplay looks about right. I'd like for some more combat depth (I.E: Godhand), but a dynasty warriors type game is like one of the next best options!
The gore looks fun and the graphics look really good.
hope it makes it's way to the states
I think I need to finally make myself read this manga.
They have like 30 or 40 chapters up on MangaFox and One Manga. It's really good.
I've never really like Dynasty Warriors all that much. Sucks they're using it's engine instead of God Hand's. The game looks pretty good from the video though, albeit a little repetitive. And hopefully in the final game they don't just explode but actually burst open. Hopefully the environments are extremely destructible as well .
@Kairouseki:

I went to Lurk. But volume 6, 7 and 8 and the last couple chapters of 5 are no where to be found. Volume 9-27 is up from another group, tho. So I downloaded the first 4 volumes and 8 chapters of 5. Delinquent-Manga is currently focusing most on it, or so they say. So I may need to wait till they bridge the gap, which will mostly take a very long time. But no biggie, I got lots of other stuff to do.
I believe dynasty warrior game engine works well for a series like Hokuto No Ken IMO
It doesn't look too good (gameplay wise). I expect Kenshirou to be more precise with his strikes rather than waving his arms and legs around. The GodHand engine would have been much better in my opinion.
As an X360 owner I was kinda disappointed for the fact that we won't get Sengoku Basara 3 and Samurai Warriors 3 (both of them got announced once I sold my Wii to get a 360). But after seeing this, now I can relax.
Come to think of it, I remember seeing a Famitsu Magazine scan somewhere( I think it was at /v/) that Koei is making a Troy Musou/Warriors game.
Nevermind what I said before. I'm gonna get this game.

I wish these long videos had sound. This is Japan, don't they got cameras that can record audio at the same time, too?
They record 3 extra dimensions but no sound . I want this game now. Hopefully it has a fairly deep combat system. Most likely not though.
This intro is SO FUCKING BAD ASS.

I was looking for a series to watch since I just finished Geass.
Guess I found it.
Holyyyy shitt!!! That intro is Fist of the North Star to a freaking T!! Awesome, truly awesome.
very excellent intro.
Here's hoping that this game covers most of the important events of the first series.

Agreed. Intro looks great and it would be nice if they covered it all the way to the end, but then the game would be about maybe 300 hours.
They could add more story arcs through downloadable content.
Is this old?
I'll do you one better Halen (Better Quality)
Now if someone will finish translating the series so everyone can actually read the manga.
So, what are the chances of this coming to the US?
Probably zip. Though, if it's for the PS3 I'd still be able to play it, Blu Ray USA and Japan are the same region .
I know, but I'd much rather understand what I'm playing. I love that there's this option now without modding, but there's just not really any games I consider worth importing that the language barrier won't mean shit to me. Hell, the only game in the entire huge-ass PS2 library I'd do that for is the Berserk game.
@Kairouseki:

There is a thread at the KOEI forums for a US release.
They could get one ready by the end of this year, or early next year.
@gwar- Watch the anime, it's a little different than the manga but is just as good…if not too cheesy...
Also special edition of the game seems to come with an...Alarm clock...You are already awake.
Thread title is weak =_=
Whenever a Fist of the North Star video game is brought out I gotto always point out how awesome this game was:
qspgIKgExew
I didn't knew what Fist of the North Star was, I still haven't seen or read a single episode or chapter of Fist of the North Star but one summer that game basicly burned a big hole in my wallet.

Holy shit man, that is so cool! I didn't even know games like that existed.
Wow, I need to play that some time. Don't know how I'll do it but I will.
