New Resonance of Fate screens feature anthropomorphic canines
It's not often we're able to do this so long before a game is released -- before we've ever even seen the game on a screen other than the Joystiq Blogtop 3000s™ we're assigned -- but we can categorically name Resonance of Fate as our game of the year as of this morning. Why, you ask? Three simple words, friends: Dogs wearing jackets.
New screens of the game, coming from Japan (likely from End of Eternity, the Japanese title of RoF), look, in certain cases, a bit less than thrilling. Sure, the game's CG trailer looked like 95405000 yen, but we're talking still shots of RPG gameplay here -- not exactly life-altering stuff. That being said, well, there's a dog. And he's wearing a jacket!

The more I see of this game, the more it's starting to look like Shadow Hearts, at least in terms of style. That's a *good* thing by the way!

Awesomeness of clothing-wearing canines easily offset by hokey game title.
Japanese naming policy: bash two cool-sounding yet rarely used words pertaining to some kind of action with concepts of infinity, time, power, or mystery.
Seriously, this name is almost as mind-scrambling as "Quantum of Solace", a title that even after seeing the film twice I still loathe yet find chic.

I'm looking forward to this one. The trailer was awesome. Tri Ace is a really good company and hopefully there's a great storyline to go with the game.

If they want to hook me into a purchase, they'll need to make the entire game grey.

You haven't seen it all until you've seen this:

That's not anthropomorphic. Learn your furries.

Let me know when this game has dogs wearing a jacket and playing poker. Then I'll be impressed.

No, that's an anthromorph.

@William
Taken from that Dictionary site:
"2. resembling a human form"
Putting a Jacket on a dog does not make it look human.

Does there exist a random name generator for JRPGs? Some of them, like this one, make no sense at all.

That dog's got a ways to be as cool as Repede, who had a frickin' pipe in addition to having body armor of some sort.

SquEnix, is that you?
mattclarkie @ Jun 29th 2009 2:58PM
I think that is a girl dog because I can't see a dog wang.

Dogs wearing jackets = day one purchase.
The trailer had some lame music, but asides from that this looks like it's going to be good.
shadowhowl1900 @ Jun 29th 2009 5:33PM
