@BananaBoat: I agree with that. If that rumor is true, it kind of reminds me of what happened with Operation Flashpoint and ARMA. I would think the majority of OF fans where somewhat diehard and know that the original developer moved on to make ARMA.
Fans of Demon's Souls will certainly be keeping their eye on this, though we shouldn't ignore the possibility that Sony could put someone else on DS2 that could do it justice. I'm certainly not complaining if we get two DS sequels. ;)
@TexRob Well, I half agree with you. If you cover up the bottom half of the face, the eyes and hair definitely look like your standard Square-Enix girly-man.
However, if you cover up the top half of the head, the nose, lips and jaw look rather female to me. Overall I think the real problem isn't this image, but the precedent that Square has set with all of their previous character designs.
I worked as a QA Tester for Activision on all the World at War DLC and I've never even heard of this. I'm curious who developed it, as I'm sure it wasn't Treyarch.
