You
have to give Sega and Sonic Team some credit. They're
first PS3 title isn't Sonic, Shinobi, Phantasy Star
Online or even, thank god, a next gen version of
the diabetic coma inducing colorform world of Alex
Kidd. It's an original title called Fifth Phantom
Saga.
From
all intents and purposes the game will be a FPS,
but if we know Sonic Team - and we don't personally
- we believe there will be a few cool "hooks"
to the gameplay we haven't seen before.
The
first of those "hooks" being that floating
funky phantom dude that appears in all of the screens.
Since the main character doesn't appear to be blasting
a cap in his ass in each shot, we can assume that
you'll also be controlling this bizarre creature
in some way. Maybe like some interactive cursor.
Or not.
In
any event, it's fresh and while we don't know if
it's all that exciting, we will remain hopeful simply
due on the strength of Sonic Teams unending pursuit
of innovative gaming.
When
we have more, you'll have more.
