GOD EATER Lets Players Dine On Custom Bullets And Bikinis

Brian Ashcraft — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 02:30:00 MST

From the looks of it, GOD EATER is Namco's take on Capcom's Monster Hunter. A game that looks to borrow so heavily from the MH franchise really needs to create its own identity as a PSP title.

What better way to do that than via customized bullets and customized clothes.

The "Bullet Edit" feature allows players to customize their bullets with five different "Modules" with settings like Type, Elemental, Distance, Path, etc.

There are also custom costumes, which do not affect your character's abilities, but might affect yours.

GOD EATER is out this February in Japan.

Namco Bandai's God Eater is coming to Japanese PSPs this fall, and it still really looks like Monster Hunter, giant swords and giant monsters and all.

Anyone Up For Some God Eating?

If you've ever said to yourself, "I'm so hungry I could eat a whole God", then Namco Bandai's latest trademark filing is right up your alley.

The trademark finders at Superannuation have uncovered a recently filed trademark application from Namco Bandai Games for a game called "God Eater". The application was filed on May 5th, and covers "Video game cartridges, computer game programs" as well as "Entertainment, namely providing a computer game that may be accessed network-wide by network users via mobile phones and computers; providing computer games via network between communications networks and computers". It most likely won't be a video game about actually eating gods, but until Namco Bandai actually reveals what the title is feel free to imagine nipping into a steaming hot plate of theological beings.

And "video game cartridges?" How very quaint.
