We got another opportunity to send in questions for, three actually, interviews. The games are:
Pro Evolution Soccer 2008
Jericho
Naruto

As some of you probably have questions about these (specially Naruto I guess), just submit one/many. As always, point out if you agree on some questions that you would like to have sent in, makes the selection for us much easier. We'll take 5 about each game, but we already have some great PES questions in mind.

Please try to submit your questions before 5pm UK time (6pm CET) on Thursday, October 4.

Are there plans to continue the Naruto game series past the timeskip?

Is there anything really ambitious you guys intend to do with future iterations of the series that there just wasn't enough time to do this time around?

ABOUT PES2008:

Why do graphics looks so horrendous? Why are we being charged $60 for this game considering the very limited league licensing, poor graphics, and what is essentially a tweaked version of PES5 in terms of gameplay?

Thank you and bye.

ABOUT JERICHO:

What have you done to make the game less linear, and can we expect more open environments in the final version of the game, not only tight corridors?

Nothing more rude than trying to be the internet diplomat and abusing of power.

I have a question about the Naruto game, is the Japanese dub available with subtitles or is it just the english voice cast in the game?

that all probably depends on the sales


rumors have it that the NA dub will be skipping some of those crappy fillars, or at least CN will start doing those Naruto special weekends, where they show a number of new episodes and blow through them quicker. So it shouldn't be that long till the NA dub hits the time-skip. Sometime middle-late next year probably.

I don't see that big of a deal with the voices, well most of them. Hell, Naruto sounds equally as annoying in the NA version, as he does in JPN version. Same goes with Sakura, Sasuke, Itachi, Rock Lee, etc.

I'm not going to lie the English Dub of Naruto is certainly not one of the worst I've heard and I've actually gotten use to Naruto's english voice to the point where I think it's perfect and a couple of the other characters.

Although I still think Orochimaru's voice is terrible. I love Sakura's, I like Kakashi's. I really like Gai and Rock Lees (Although they took some getting use to). Jiraiya's is great I think.

yeah, that's pretty much what I meant. I just don't see how people can moan about the English version, then turn around and praise the JPN version like it was something special. They both sound about on par to me, with a few exceptions here and there(like attack names and certain characters).

If the Naruto game does well, will you consider doing a Bleach game in the same vein? :P Sorry, had to ask.

Well it's about what you are used to, many Anime fans are purist in the fact they like Japanese subs, just because they was the way it was intended to be heard.

I can understand why this game wouldn't have them, being western developed, but 9 times out of 10, if given the choice i would always go with the original dub.

I'm sorry, I forgot to write what questions we submitted. Here they are:
PES:
Lots of games are now implementing uploading and sharing of replays (Halo 3, PGR4, skate, Tiger Woods etc), and online spectator mode. How long will it be before we can expect to see a similar functionality in PES?

A year ago there were talks in a previous XCN interview that there may be a special PES controller released, after the complaints from both gamers and Konami about the D-pad. Will there ever be such a controller?

Do you see PES going more along the lines of Winning Tatics and becoming more Management based?

How come the Fantasia mode (i.e. control one player á la Love Football) is available in the PS2 version, and not in the next-generation versions?


Naruto:
Was there ever any plans to let the player co-operatively run around online with (an)other player(s)? If yes, what stopped it? It seems to be the perfect game for it!

What kind of DLC do you have planned - there were rumours about new characters?

Can you re-confirm that the Japanese dub is available with subtitles, or is it just the english voice cast in the game?

With such a big license (and you being such a big fans of the series), is there anything really ambitious you guys intend to do with future iterations of the series that there just wasn't enough time to do now, or just did not fit into the story this time around?

Are there plans to continue the Naruto game series past the timeskip?

Great questions, even though it's not sure they all will make it, they are too good to be ignored. THe interviews should be done in 2 weeks or so.
