From the press release (http://www.atlus.com/press/110405_ms.htm) this upcoming PS2 title sounds interesting...
Quote"Metal Saga is a non-linear RPG in which the user is in full control of how they play the game.? Said Yu Namba, Project Lead at Atlus USA.?You can spend time hunting down outlaws, collecting items, modding tanks, exploring the vast wilderness, or playing a wide variety of mini games, or instead devote yourself to unlocking any one of the many different endings."
Hmm, a computer that decides people are the problem and tries to get rid of 'em, eh? I wonder if there are any Terminators. Maybe Captain Power will be a formidable ally? :P
"Non-linear" sounds like a great idea, though.
