Playscope has known what you might have suspected for a while now. The time for fighting your most basic of needs is over.

Let the healing begin:

Garnering favorable comparisons to the pretty damn cool Odin Sphere, it sounds like they’re trying to tell you to skip the cutscenes and just play the awesome game.

It also seems to be a recreation of the famed battle between Cliffy B. and Jason “Jace” Hall.

But seriously, Marvelous. Amnesia? Possessed by a dark spirit? I have an idea, how about hyper-speed punching, mid-air battles and melodrama? Better yet, base a game on my sense of deja vu that recurs every damn time I read an adventure game plot. Waggling the controller would clear the stale fart smell my synaesthesia relates to plotline amnesia.

In other words, the Wii is still awesome: “The game has two different control methods, one that involves the Wii Remote and another that uses the Classic Controller, for players who prefer more precision“
