Odin Sphere

[Excalibur]

I couldn't find any thread discussing this game, so if there is one I somehow missed please excuse me. That said, for those of you that enjoy 2D, hand drawn, side-scrolling beat em ups like I do, you definitely need to check out this game. It's being released by Atlus later this month.

From the trailer I watched at http://www.atlus.com/odinsphere/archive/archive02.html it looks very reminiscent, stylistically, to the Saturn classic (and one hell of a game incidentally) Guardian Heroes. Is anyone else planning to get this game? I've already preordered it from Amazon. It's slated for release May 26th.

And it's much closer to the Saturn classic Princess Crown. In fact, it's much the same team. They both look, and play in the same way.
