That's right folks-- the new Boktai DS game has officially been renamed Lunar Knights...and really has not a whole lot to do with the original Boktai

No Django. No Sabata.

I think that's Master Otenko in the screenshots, but now he looks like a fricking retard.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

It's still a Kojima game, so I'm not complaining.

...

What is the big deal with Boktai anyway.

i already saw something about that game, but i didn't know it was Boktai renamed.

Boktai is the greatest game to have ever existed. Ever. I don't care if you have an opinion, I don't want to hear it. BOKTAI ROCKS.

It's a GBA game where you have to go outside and play in the sunlight in order to kill the zombies in-game. Fun fun fun.

That's why it's not fun right there.

I have to go OUTSIDE.

Never mind the fact that I gotta HOPE the sunlight gets into the stupid cartridge.

I'll pass, thanks.

One would think a game called Lunar Knights would use a gimmick opposite of sunlight, though. ;p

Actually, the cartridge is bigger than a normal one with a solar sensor. And thanks for helping the video game stereotype. XD

The big deal with Boktai is that Kojima actually paid me to play the game. He figured it'd be pretty awesome if they had one of those celebrity endorsements.

That aside, I'd think any semblance of 'stealth gameplay' is slowly being erased in Boktai.
Rankings. We need the rankings from the first game again.

I've been still actually waiting on Boktai 3, assuming it eventually is released in NA. Release dates have been iffy and speculative.

i believe i also read somewhere that ths game will NOT, yes NOT, have the solar sensor but will use the DS' internal clock to figure out the strength of the sun.

14:00 = lots of sun
23:00 = nots of sun

i only saw a movie that looked like a bad starfox ripp-off but that will not be the actual main gameplay, at least, i hope so...
