I spend a whole day four days ago looking for this game while screaming "Nazi zombie werewolf anime turn-based strategy" and only could think of Hellsing. Now it is just staring me in the face...

Its called Shadow Hearts. The second one takes place right before WWII, if Im not mistaken.

Plus, contains a vampire! (who was in the first game, but has lost his memory and thinks his powers are 'super powers' and believes he is a superhero)

As for Operation Darkness, this had better come to North America.

The many announcements of various titles had me enamored enough to buy this unit...but now it sits collecting dust, waiting for any good games to play (that is not an FPS)
After my 10th First Person experience that lasted me all of 10 hours...I am so done with these types of games for a while...
Oblivion was great, but glitchy and just got repetitive...as most RPG's do...but, if I had some variety, then I would be a happy camper..
Well, the trusty PC is still pumping (With LOTRO and NWN2 to occupy my time for now...)
But, HURRY UP already!

Looking forward to see what becomes of this.

I know the Council is *technically* a splinter group of the 5th, but it's just not the same.

I recall hearing the devs claiming it was a preplanned change, but the whole thing just smacked of PR.

But seriously, the whole WWII game genre is getting really old now. Even with magic.

Still, sounds pretty cool.

Man, those were the days. Fighting Nazis, with vampires and werewolves.

Sabre_Justice: Okay, no more long name.

Realistic mech fighting in an alternate history FTW.

Good thing us Americans know what really happened in this epic struggle between agent BJ Blazkowicz, experimental Nazi zombies with guns in their chests and Hitler's robosuit.

If we keep seeing titles like this for the 360, I'm going to have to start taking a serious look at it. I'd previously written it off because the bulk of it's titles (shooters, sports, racing games and assorted multiplayer jazz) just aren't my cup of tea.

Why, oh why, do japenese developers still think "tons of buttons == tons of gameplay".

I burned many hours playing that game.

Of course, it was between that, or Madden and Tekken Tag *barf*

Any RPG announced for the 360 is good news.
Operation Darkness FTW !

Even if it sucks, it will be a quite an accomplishment to make a bad game with Nazis, Zombies, werewolves, magic and vampires.

Famitsu also has a cool new preview of Lost Odyssey. Gonna be a good year for RPGs on 360 :)

It was rather odd and not too polished back then, but any new game is a good thing so looking foward to seeing how it has improved.
