This looks like something that could be interesting, I'm going to follow this one and see some more footage. The art style alone is enough to warrant some piqued interest. What do you guys think?

kinda looks like hiei from yu yu hakusho.
looks interesting, I'll probably rent/buy it.

Not only is the art style interesting, but the fact that it's a 2-D side-scroller definitely got my attention.

The Wii has some impressive games coming out for it, there's hope for Ninty yet.

This.
It looks awesome because of both the art style and the side scrolling gameplay. Hopefully it comes out before the end of the year.
Oh and I lol'd when I saw the (WORKING TITLE) part xD.

Isn't that a sword from Megaman? The battlenetwork series. It's a chip where the more damage you take the stronger that sword is or something?

Reminds me of Megaman a lot. Looks like a good buy :D

Life Sword? I'm just guessing here. I haven't touched the Battle Network series for quite some time.

Muramasa.
@ FD: Muramasa is the name of a sword in Japanese mythology. Sword is infused with evil blah blah stuff. Named after its swordsmith. Desires blood. Leads to suicide of owners. etc.etc. Look it up XD;

Oops, misread FD's post there, coupled with the fact I forgot that a chip with such name existed.

This.
It looks very interesting, and it's something that's either going on my '09 Christmas list, or I'm getting it for my birthday.

"It has also been told that once drawn, a Muramasa blade has to draw blood before it can be returned to its scabbard, even to the point of forcing its wielder to wound himself or commit suicide.[3] Thus, it is thought of as a demonic cursed blade that creates bloodlust in those who wield it."
