Well, as promised by SEGA, the site has been officially opened a few hours ago, exactly at 00:00:00 AM of 31 August, 2008, on Miku’s birthday. I can’t access the site due to the site having a HUGE traffic. Well, I did try to refresh my firefox for about 50 times, and it worked! And all that effort was rewarded by an awesome PV! Read on for more details about the game, as well as the trailer of it! =D

So what do you think of the trailer? There’s something more from the SEGA team! They’ve made a playable version of the game (but they didn’t release it to public T~T), and made a video on it!

Let’s start with the basics of the game. Here’s what the game would offer you.
- The best rhythm game ever.
- Great Hatsune Miku 3D graphics.
- A storyline.
- A lot of customization options.
- Songs and customization options from the community at PIAPRO.
Those five makes up this game, Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA-. Let’s talk about them in more detail. So buttons (Triangle, Circle, Cross, or Square) would appear on the screen in random places, along with a small arrow on it. You then have to hit the buttons along with the rhtym (when the arrow makes a full revolution). The game itself is really straightforward, and you’ll understand it once you see it. Here’re some nice screens.
- See the circle button there with the arrow? Once the arrow finished turning into a revolution, hit circle! Follow the rhythm to get the best results!
- Oh, and a “shooting star” would also guide you… When the “shooting star” hit the cross, press the cross button!
- And as you play it, more buttons will appear and the difficulty would go up!
- And as you play the game, Miku would sing the song and dance to the rhythm!
- Actually on the PSP, the graphics isn’t that bad…
- Follow the rhythm of the song and she’ll be happy!
- Sometimes, the PV are awesome!
- Here’s the results screen!
And the game would have a “my room” feature. It’s pretty much like a central world where you’d save, go pick another song to play, and do other things. Of course, you’ll be able to customize it with anything you want. As you play the game, you’ll unlock more items.
- This would be the “my room” feature…
- And this is what it’s like when it’s customized!
This is probably the best rhythm game ever, with community songs from PIAPRO, and a great 3D graphic of Hatsune Miku. The song that appeared on the trailer above was one song from the Re:Package album, Strobe Night (I have no idea what that means), so maybe we could expect more livetune songs (as in Last Night, Good Night)? And I could also see Hachune Miku on the trailer… Maybe Ievan Polkka would be on the game too? I would be SO HAPPY if ryo songs are in the game. I WILL buy this game no matter what. What do you guys think about this game after seeing this article?
