Namco Bandai Games announced that their Xbox 360 RPG Trusty Bell: Chopin’s Dream is coming out to North America in 2007. The game is renamed Eternal Sonata and has a vague reference to Chopin in the press release. Instead of flat out saying it is Chopin it just says “The story of Eternal Sonata begins as a famous composer, on his deathbed, drifts between this life and the next.” Gameplay wise a few new details about the game are spelled out. There is a monster morphing system and combat is a hybrid of turn based fighting with an action system. Also characters will have special attacks depending on light and shadow.

Wow. There is absolutely guaranteed to be lame.
That doesn’t mean it won’t (or will) be successful however: there exists a popular roleplaying game in which Donald Duck casts Final Fantasy spells at monsters. All bets are off as to whether this sells.
orz… I had a semi lengthy piece of writing there… I forgot that HTML tag starters are bad. Anyway… Hopefully we get a dual language edition, and I like the name change since Chopin composed nearly exclusively for the piano… so Bell made no sense. I think Eternal Sonata: Chopin’s Dream would be the best title though.

Great, and knowing NAMCO USA, that game will be full of American dubbed crap and censorship.
