Capcom has recently put up a new website with a countdown timer.

http://www.capcom.co.jp/DD/

The silhouette looks like a dragon, no?

It's more frustrating waiting for the asskicking than the asskicking itself.

C'mon! There's no fun in it if you're not going to wild mass guess.

Could it be? The long awaited sequel to Diner Dash? Dare we hope?

Probably not, but a man can dream...

You know, I don't get the idea behind these timers. How is this supposed to create more hype then an actual announcement? I don't know about you guys, but I will probably have forgotten about this whole thing in an hour or so if I'm not reminded.

It's not like I'm going to be all "what is this DD supposed to be" all week. And people that will are in for a big disappointment, as their fantasies will have topped everything Capcom could ever come up with.

Honestly, I think it does more harm then good. To every game designer/publisher everywhere: Don't think you are clever, just announce the damm thing. With a trailer, if possible. that will have a way better effect.

Double Dragon is a Taito IP, and Dead Or Alive is Team Ninja's property. So I doubt it's either of those.

Isn't DOA Tecmo's property? After all, Team Ninja belongs to Tecmo.

If you want to get technical, yes.

They do have a couple Dungeons And Dragons games on their name...

[up]Seriously? If that's what it is, I'll bite. If it's for a Nintendo platform, that is.

But then it would probably be DMD...

Breath Of Fire: Dragon Duarter.

Anyway, they weren't even RP Gs. They were sidescrolling beat-em-ups. Amusing ones nonetheless.

Some of the best of the genre, IMO. I'd totally be excited if they got an HD rerelease, say, for Live Arcade.

Seems unlikely they'd make a hype countdown for that, though. And a new game is epically unlikely, with Atari holding the D&D license.

My best guess is still Breath Of Fire: Dastardly Dragons.

They've done Dungeons And Dragons before, but I don't think they still have the license. If it's an existing IP, Breath Of Fire is most likely, but I think a new IP is more likely still
