    So we just announced @gamespotuk stage that we will publish Akai Katana!


    Fuck, man, Rising Star Games is definitely my favourite publisher right now. This is the best gaming news of the year, along with their Daifukkatsu announcement. Chances of a Deathsmiles IIX localization next year are looking good unless both Dodonpachi and Akai Katana tank.

    any word on when? Last I heard was "early 2012" but I can't seem to find any more specific information than that. ;-/
