Games to Look Forward to |
 |
Makai Kingdom
Despite having a name I cannot pronounce (garnering me some snickers from both my wife and an Electronics Boutique employee), I am still highly anticipating what looks to the be the closest game to Disgaea that could possibly be conceived. Disgaea, with the possible exception of Final Fantasy Tactics, could very well be my favorite strategy RPG of all time. Despite two follow-ups (La Pucelle and Phantom Brave) that were excellent games in their own right, I have yet to discover a game as enthralling as Disgaea.
It would appear I am not alone. I have heard ramblings up and down this wide Internet of ours that Makai Kingdom is the spiritual successor to Disgaea plenty of us have been waiting for. Despite our tight budget as of late, what with moving into our new house in a couple of months, I am still picking up this game no matter what the cost.
I will admit, this one caught me somewhat out of left field. I first discovered this game in an issue of Nintendo Power (which I got for free, apparently they redesigned the mag and are giving away 3 free issues!) and decided to do some research on it.
What I found is that it is being published by Namco (!) and looks to combine action RPG with space shooter (!!). Now, I am all about genre cross-overs and this is admittedly one that I have never really seen.
Despite its relatively niche status, I may just find myself checking this one out. That makes two games for the GBA I am quite stoked to play (the other being Riviera, of course).
Final Fantasy XII
Yes, yes, I realize everyone on the face of this planet is highly anticipating this game, but the more screenshots I see, the more promotional scans I view, the more I watch my wife play Final Fantasy X; damnit, I want a new Final Fantasy!
I don't even think I really need to elaborate on this much. Hurry up Square Enix, we are waiting on you!

The beauty of this game cannot be put into words. That being said, the plot so far is somewhat lacking...
A very punny game starring the Dragon Quest series' lowest of the low beast - the Slime!
