Suikoden is a series that has always had one of the greatest stories in the JRPG genre, and has always had a unique cast. With over 108 characters to chose from, anyone playing the series is bound to find someone that they are fond of. Little did I know that Konami would be making an official announcement just weeks after trademarking the title. 
Due Fiumi is a gaming website that has long been committed to bringing the latest and greatest knews about this lesser known franchise. With the recent announcement of the game, Due Fiumi was quick to host a number of different Japanese magazines that illustrated what this traditional DS game would be like: "First information available: - 50% complete - Characters are 3d - Backgrounds 2d - Traditional rpg it looks like - You tap the touch screen, making battles move at a fast pace - The main headline of the article is "The Chosen 108 heroes have been destroyed?!" so maybe this game will be different from other Suikoden games in that regard?" The game is going to be a throw back to all of the classic Suikoden games. So far this generation I had absolutely no plans whatsoever to buy a DS, but with the announcement of this title, it seems like my plans were dashed. Below are the scans from the japanese magazines: http://img167.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1219215547359sk4.jpghttp://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa76/1623546/Suiko.jpg I wish this would have been on the PS3 though.
