Chrome Hound Renamed
Signifying the change in title and style of the game formerly known as Chrome Hound, From Software today opened its official teaser page promoting Metal Wolf Chaos. A 3D mecha action game for Xbox, complete with online action on Xbox Live, its due out in Japan this winter. The new title seems to be accompanied by a slightly more over-the-top visual presentation for the game, which looked rather drab, sedate, and realistic when it debuted at last years Tokyo Game Show. The seal of the President of the United States has also become a bit of a recurring motif for the story, which depicts a near-future war later in the 21st century. Theres not much else to see besides the first bit of promotional art -- check it out on the teaser site -- but well look out for more updates from From shortly. American publishers have also reportedly taken interest in the project already, so expect more news on that score as well.Source: http://www.1up.com
