I'm well aware of that, but there's also the Eddie-like thing hanging from the cieling, and I-no may have been decomissioned in XX, if the X series has any bearing at all on GG2. Which it may not. That's actually not the one we were talking about, but it's another example of the three, nonetheless. Still, at any rate, Raven's the only one to appear. PS, can anyone reupload that video, or at least post a decent screenshot of him? I need to revise my old sprite / make a new one with appropriate changes for his new look, and the boss battle video of him is nearly impossible to make out.

As far as I know, the stuff in the X series seems to still count, I guess it just doesn't tie into the main story much. I guess. It's hard to get clear information on the game. Raven's role in the game seems pretty limited, actually. I'm not sure if the three associates (also translates a braintrust) still includes I-No, but the only one that appears is Raven.

Oh yeah, and could someone please mirror that first video of Raven from Page 1? It's already been deleted from that Japanese uploader site.

Well, I am not surprised, though it's a bit sad to see. Maybe next time Ishiwatari will come up with a more palatable format. Nobody seemed to thrilled about it being for 360 or the change in genre. I mean, there's nothing wrong with doing something new, but... Yeah. Here's a bit of stuff I came across, I'm sure some people will be glad to have it. Translations may not be 100%, though. I'm not sure if the personality and backstory sections are official, something seems a bit off about them, to me. RAVEN (Seiyuu: Yasumoto Hiroki) Name: Raven Age: (He doesn't remember) Birthday: March 28th Bloodtype: A Height: 181cm Likes: People who make him feel malicious. People who make discoveries and inventions. Dislikes: Himself, who can love nothing. Hobbies: Prooving his own existance. Personality: Though far from a gentleman, he is nevertheless calm and unemotional, and speaks with an air of maturity. While he appears to be gentle, feeling pain awakens his memories of pleasure, and when he enters a state of high tension, his tempermant shifts from quiet to confrontational in hopes of coaxing out more pain. He seems to generally have good intentions, but his loyalty to That Man is unquestionable, despite his own reasons for participating in the incident being unclear. He has a strong interest in anyone who can give his emotions a big jolt. Backstory: One of the three associates of "That Man", who had previously lead the world into a period of fear. Due to an unknown trick, even if he is reduced to rubbish, his immortal body will regenerate back to full health. He agrees with "That Man's" actions, and is genuinely loyal to him, though his personal goals are unknown. THAT MAN (Seiyuu: Tomokazu Sugita) Name: Unknown Age: Unknown Birthday: Unknown Bloodtype: Unknown Height: Unknown Likes: Unknown Dislikes: Unknown Hobbies: Unknown Personality: Unknown Backstory: The mysterious man who's been constantly engaged in secret maneuvers throughout history, and who put the Gear Project into operation. He is the ringleader that spawned the living weapons known as Gears, and triggered the Crusades. His actions are influenced by the weight of the hatred of countless people which he bears, yet his purposes still aren't immediately evident. Sol was once an old friend of his, and the two share an especially deep, kharmic relationship.

Just until Raven becomes a legitimately playable character, y'know?

Just a note, the 2000-2004 scans were done by a guy named Kei, though he closed down his site not long ago. It's also not quite the complete artbook.

It's a GD-Rom kit. If you have a Naomi arcade board, you should be able to run any Naomi games, but I'm not 100% sure.
