New Legend of Heroes game to include dual UMDs

by Mike Bendel on April 18, 2007 @ 8:10 am

Japanese developer Nippon Falcom has revealed that the next chapter in their Legend of Heroes series, known as Eiyuu Densetsu Sora no Kiseki SC in Japan, will be sprawled across two giant 1.8GB UMD discs. Contrary to popular belief, this is not the first time a PSP game has been given the dual UMD treatment.

Winglish, a PSP title released exclusively in Korea, was actually the first game to include dual UMDs. Nevertheless, it is interesting that another developer has required the use of two UMD discs. We’re betting that this will be one huge adventure.

OMG Namco Bandai localization pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease.

At least they aren't releasing it on PSP like they did on PC. If I've read about it correctly, the PC version was released as two seperate games, First Chapter and Second Chapter. Or I could be wrong and they were, while named that, both included in the same package.

Sora no Kiseki also has a J-Pop opening theme. knowing the Namco side of the company, if this gets localized that's gonna get butchered to at LEAST a 'No Vocals' version.

It's more than likely true to the previous games. Which means a turn based battle system very reminiscent of Lunar and Lunar 2. (NOT related to Lunar Knights)

Genesis? *googles* Oh, Lunar: Dragon Song. Yeah, I got that a few years back. It was fun at first, but any self respecting Lunar fan would find it absolutely blasphemous. By the time I beat it, it left me feeling absolutely empty inside. After putting it back on my self, I looked back at the experience, and realized I had wasted 30 or so hours on complete and utter crap. I haven't touched it since.
