Interestingly enough the website for the From Software developed title lists the title will be made available on October 8 for 800MS points. While the title has been rated by the CERO, Japan's rating board for games, it has yet to pop-up on the ESRB website for release in North America. Possible Japan only release? Maybe, but we'll have to wait and see.

Just watched the video on From Software's website for this... looks there is more than one game mode. From what I could tell, it seems like a strange bomberman clone with Tenchu characters. Really strange. The video was all in Japanese so I have no idea what it was saying, but it didn't look all that fun or compelling. Many would argue that the full Tenchu games aren't really very fun or compelling either though, so I digress. I have to admit that I enjoy the Tenchu games, but I know they aren't great games...

Well, it looks like different modes of trapping.

This seems VERY similar to Trap Gunner, which was an AWESOME game that not many people picked up!

Phawx, that's EXACTLY what I was thinking. If it's anything like Trap Gunner, BRING IT ON! Man, I wouldn't mind seeing Trap Gunner itself make it to XBLA... I mean, really, that was one extremely fun, awesome game, and would make for some great online play. -cheers for Vahn Rally!- Every time the announcer said "Lou Richie!" I swear I thought about Little Richie... and the secret charas in that game where cool, too.
