Man, Koei Tecmo, you really know how to confuse the hell out of us. You've proven your capacity to perplex with your billion-dudes-on-screen action franchises -- now, you're diversifying your riddlecraft with a teaser site for a heretofore unannounced game. Based on context clues, we're guessing it's the long overdue revival of everyone's favorite classic franchise: Pretty Flower, Dead Flower, Falling Girl.
We're kidding, of course. Judging by the Big Dipper which slyly appears at the end of the teaser's video loop, and the fact that the entire Musou (or Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors) team will be in attendance when the game is revealed on October 14, we're guessing it's actually Fist of the North Star Musou. Shame, really -- we were so excited about a current-gen reimagination of PFDFFG.

That was REALLY, REALLY lame joystiq... If you'd actually known the Hokuto no Ken series in which this game is based on, you'd be shitting your pants now. Its friggin Hokuto no Ken next gen for f** sake.
The scene that apears on the video Is a very important part of the story where the protagonist's lover kills herself. But you can rest assured the game will have lots of blood, violence and exploding heads for you to satisfy yourself.
Bottomline: If you dont understand what this is about, This is probably not for you anyway...

That does look like it is some kind of Fist of The North Star game. I am now giddy, curious, and interested in this game all at once. If this is in fact a Fist of The North Star game and Tecmo being involved expect massive blood, guts, bones, and death to spray around the characters, screen, and probably your room.
