I hate it when they do stuff like this.

We have an announcement! There will be an announcement later. Thank you for your time. End of announcement.

Nothing against you, Mag. But really, how vague. Just say what it is, Siliconera! Why even wait?

I feel... betrayed... even though the possibility was remote to begin with.

What kind of PIECE OF TRASH IS THAT... sorry...

You know what? I was surprised... suprisingly disappointed :evil:

I'm with kodokami on this one. Exactly how many people from the 80s and 90s are still at square?

I read the follow-up article.  This new title (assuming they finish it) actually looks interesting, or at least the described characters look interesting.  Only one teenager in the foursome, and one 40-year-old guy.  Give Square/Enix credit for defying convention and trying something new.  As for the gameplay, who knows?  Sounds like a dungeon crawler with guns.  Not a whole lot to go on.

Of course, I'm not pleased that this "surprise" had nothing to do with Chrono, but I honestly wasn't expecting it to be anyway.

Heh, I recall Crystal Conquest for which they made a countdown page last time.

And that is why they tried the announcement of an announcement gag. Cause the actual announcement was bs and they'd get more hits from telling people to check back over and over again for the "surprise"as in the tomato surprise (the surprise is there's no tomato).

I need to sleep and recharge my joke circuits.

I think I'm more disappointed than anything in the fact that this game looks an awful lot like Left 4 Dead. Not to say that's a bad thing; I really enjoyed the multiplayer aspect of it (co-op isn't something that is utilized very often, unfortunately). Except instead of shooting zombies we are now shooting ... Cactuars and Malboros? No, that would be much too... I would just like to see more originality these days. The randomly generated maps sounds interesting though.

They spelled Chrono Break wrong.
