1up.com also lists this date: http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3169998&p=39
Is it legit? I'm not sure. Would this be for Japan, US, or both??

Don't trust anyone but Konami. However, Konami has been known to release games quickly after they have been announced especially suikoden. So who knows.

A simultaneous release is more possible than it ever has been too. VAs have already been set up from what we have seen at IGN and DS games are not region coded. So keep those fingers crossed.

UGO talks of another timeframe:

Early 2009 sounds far more likely to me. December 2008 sounds to soon for a game that is supposedly only 50% finished at the time they announced it.

But we've only seen the VA of the very beginning. So they still have a lot of work to do.

I just hope they take their time to translate the game properly, I can wait a month longer if they do.

videogamemedia.com says Februray of 2009: Konami September 2008 Media Tour NYC Editorial
The surprise of the evening was the title Suikoden: Tierkreis for the Nintendo DS. Pronounced Swee-koden, this franchise is well known for quality RPG titles and features full voice acting for the entire game and all the anime style cutscenes. The production values look high for a DS title which looks more like a typical console RPG. Suikoden: Tierkreis is scheduled for a February 2009 release.

Huh, that sounds like a reliable source. But I'm waiting for an official Konami statement.

I really hope they don't rush it. I'd much rather wait for a good/great game than be let down by a mediocre installment of Suikoden.

edit: but those screenshots in gamesblog are beautiful! makes me look forward to it even more

I think STK is comming out very soon, like two months. They already have english shots after all and game site people seem to have played it.

That's because it was at a Konami conference party. It's likely why so many people also know when it's coming out: They were told by PR when.

Yes, that is the Japanese release date. The English release date will probably be sometime in Q1.

I would say trust anyone *but* Konami, since they're turning the series into a joke.
