TGS 2009: Capcom bringing Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes and Ghost Trick to NA, Europe

While we don't have any video for Ghost Trick (there are screens below), we know it comes from the same folks who worked on Capcom's Ace Attorney series. Apparently players will be controlling the ghost of a recently passed gentleman, piecing together clues to solve his own murder. That's some trick, you crazy ghost! Sorry, we're done channeling Brian Fellows now.

Yeah, that what it would have been called had Capcom not copyrighted "Sengoku Basara."
Anyways, I gave the 'stiq a ton of info. on this game a few months back and didn't see anything posted, so I got some other footage and info. for you guys, in case anyone hadn't seen this stuff yet.

Oh, and Crayfish, this game is TONS better in my opinion. It has a really cool storyline, the characters are different and personable, and the characters have diverse movesets and skills. There are very few people with the same moveset in this game, other than 2 or 3 of the ninjas, but even they have different skills.
It's kinda like watching an anime, if you like anime at all.
This is truly one of my most anticipated titles of next year.

So is Sengoku Basara just like Dynasty Warriors or better somehow?
I ask because I've always be *this* close to picking up whatever the latest Dynasty Warriors game is, but the reviews which typically amount to "this is the same old thing they've been doing every year and they need to freshen it up" manage to stop me short

Its Dynasty Warriors, technically Samurai Warriors, just a lot more over the top.
I love both series but Sengoku Basara is definitely the more entertaining one.
Hangster @ Sep 25th 2009 4:06AM
mexican and spanish people will think this game is trash
Matias @ Sep 25th 2009 5:58PM
Errr, why? It looks good.
Also, not everyone from latin america is mexican.
Kenoji (aka Neo Asuma) @ Sep 25th 2009 4:36AM
Oh, and I forgot, there is an actual anime of this series.

Alright, I'm done.

Dude, that's just an anime of the Sengoku Basara X fighting game, developed by Arc System Works, and published and IP-owned by Capcom.

@ waynski
I swear, maybe I didn't get far enough in Sengoku Basara 2, but I never heard him say that phrase.
Masamune usually says "Are you leady?" or "Hea we gow!" a lot, but when I first heard that phrase, I fell out laughing. A lot of the stuff he says in English is strange and hilarious.
Oh, and don't get me started on the Shingen/Yukimura conversations ever since SB1/Devil Kings. Man, those are a headache sometimes.
"Yukimura!!!"
"Oyakata-sama!!"
"YUKIMURA!!"
"OYAKATA-SAMA!!!"
Tim @ Sep 25th 2009 9:15AM
Also, I hope that Capcom would be generous to have the first 2 and X as unlockables.

That bird is a liar!
CJLopez @ Sep 25th 2009 12:38PM
The bird is the word

Anyone happen to know when the second season of the anime airs? I am looking forward to putting my guns back on.
zsabreuser @ Sep 25th 2009 1:25PM
Since I started the series by playing the games, when I found out about the anime, I went running to see it, and IT CHOKE ON A COCK. It's very terrible, and has nothing to do with the game aside from character...designs?
The vids Kenoji posted are awesome! Is it me or Ieyasu is a nod to God Hand? Just look at his special!

You can watch is on

I'll probably get this game. I've also been waiting to get a Dynasty Warriors type game for the PS3, I was originally going to get 6 but because of the horrible reviews I decided not to.
I'm near enough convinced to go with this game instead of the next Dynasty Warriors/Warriors Orochi game.
