<table border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td class="alt2" style="border: 1px inset ;">This is an early report of some of the new information to be revealed in upcoming magazine articles for Crisis Core.

The new battle system is known as Digital Mind Wave, or "DMW", and revolves around the reels in the upper left corner, which influence Zack's stats. Upon lining up three reels of the same character and value, a "Power Surge!!" will be triggered, and a technique that has some connection to the character will become available.

There are also new screenshots featuring Reno, Rude, and Razard, who is an executive of the Department of SOLDIER and seems to have two sides, depending on if he's working or not.

Reno: "Midgar's crawlin' with monsters!"

Rude: "SOLDIER is also having a hard fight."

Razard: "We've recieved reports from his parents that Genesis hasn't been in contact with them."

More information should be available soon, and it seems that information on Crisis Core may begin to be released on a more regular basis. </td></tr></tbody></table>

OMG! Is that Cloud I see there down at the bottom!? It looks like he might be a playable character after all! *fangirl scream* I cannot WAIT for this game!!! Thanks for sharing! ^_^
 
Scroll down to the very bottom of the scan and you'll see him, there's three pics of him consecutively that looks like he's in the gameplay. Haven't you seen the other Crisis Core pics? Cloud is most definantly infact in this game. This game takes place during when Zack was in SOLDIER and Cloud was a Shinra Grunt.

edited to add: here are 2 other images that show Cloud in this game
 
That was definitely Cloud at the bottom. I really do hope he's a playable character!
 
If you guys see the image(of Cloud) again, you will see "Power Surge !!" in it. If you don't understand what this mean, read the first post of this thread.

Some news:

Crisis Core Article from Dengeki PS2 3/9​
Scans from the latest issue of Dengeki PS2 (to be released this Friday) have been uploaded, courtesy poster 678 of the Crisis Core 2ch thread. The article is four pages long.​

As previously mentioned, the article reveals the full names of Zack and Angeal. Their full names are Zack Fair and Angeal Hewley. The official romanization of Razaado has also been confirmed as Lazard.​

According to Nomura, Zack's name is derived from the term "fair weather", and is intended to contrast with Cloud Strife, while Angeal's name has origins in Greek, and there is also meaning behind it. It seems to be based on hyle, which is Greek for "matter", and is translated as "materia" in Latin.​

More details will be posted as soon as possible.​

I don't see Cloud =S I didn't think he'd even be in it, to be honest - doesn't CC take place before Cloud joins SOLDIER?

Well technically, Cloud never joined SOLDIER :P
CC takes place around the time of the Nibelheim incident. It focuses mainly around the somewhat mysterious Genesis (known as "G" in DoC) and his story. Cloud will be included in the story, but whether or not he is playable is unclear yet. It may be only Zack that we'll be able to play as
 
Wow! Thank you for all of this Crystal! Those scans look wonderful! Do you think it's possible Aerith might be a playable character too?? This is just too awesome! I can't freaking wait for this game! :D Pooley, if you view the scans Crystal has posted, you'll see that it looks like Cloud is a big possibility of a playable character considering the way he's set up there at the very bottom of the scan. Also Cloud IS in the game. In these newest scans you can see him right there with his name CLOUD right by his face.
 
Those scans are a really bad quality, so I can't see what's going on in them mostly :( But I'm yet to see a scan that shows Cloud as a character during the gameplay. They've all been as a cut scene so far, so it seems that he may be playing a similar role to what Yuffie did in DoC
 
I made a bad choice of words there I suppose >_< I was supposed to say it's far too small to make out
I'll just take your word for it though, and see how CC turns out

Bad quality or not, this scan is LARGE and if you scroll down to the very bottom, you'll see Cloud in what looks like a gameplay picture. It says Power Surge right underneath his pictures.

That image don't have anything to do with Cloud being a playable character.
 
Ummm yes it does...there is a picture of Cloud at the very bottom centered with the words Power Surge by his name which indicates that he could very well be a playable character. Are you telling me that these are just character who influence Zack and that Cloud probably won't be playable?
 
There may be a possibility that you play as Cloud. However i'd rather play as Zack, seeing that is why this game is mostly made. To explain Zack's past and everything that happened before the events of FFVII. (Nibelheim incident is what i'm basically meaning by "before the events of FFVII")

Exactly. When a character's face appear three times, you see "Power Surge!!". After that, Zack will have a memory of the character, and then will attack with a Limit Break related with the character.
 
Hmmm well it sounds like interesting battle strategy in any case. I've never heard of anything like that before, but okay *shrugs* I just hope that we can have Cloud a playable character, even if it's just for a short portion of the game. I just want to play him in those graphics, just once.
 
So that first one seems as if the war in Wutai will be a part of CC, which is something I've been hoping for. And Zack's face in the second one is simply comical :lol:
 
Famitsu Article Highlights
A few shots from the Famitsu article have been uploaded, featuring two new screenshots and an interview with Nomura.

In the interview, Nomura mentions the origins of Zack and Angeal's last name, as noted in the previous update. In regard to the scene with Genesis, Angeal, and Sephiroth, "The scene with the three people facing off happened in the past, and has an important meaning for each of them. It was after this that things started got out of hand... Angeal doesn't use the Buster Sword here, either."

He also mentioned that there is an important meaning behind the color and design of Angeal's wings, Zack and the Turks have a close relationship, and that Lazard's role is vital to the story. When asked about the release date, he said that an announcement would be made before long.
