I'm a PS3 fanboy and an even bigger fan of JRPG's so it pains me to say that after seeing that video, I'm losing interest in this game.
I was sooo looking forward to it too.
The combat reminds me of World of Warcraft. This might as well be a WRPG. Whatever happened to good 'ol JRPG?. Seems like all of them are going this route now with the boring hack n slash combat!
One of things I liked with JRPG combat is the over the top special moves.

"Trying to raise the overall level of detail and realism The Show will offer fully customizable jumbotron animations, fan chants and crowd atmosphere. End of game replays are also available to provide players with an instant post-game report including all of the exciting plays just like a true MBL broadcast. Players will also beable to create custom music tracks that can be played throughout gameplay, which include batter walk-up tunes."
... it would make sense that M$ will use Blu-ray in their next xbox, because they're already paying SONY for using DVD tech.
In case anybody is curious, here's the low down on the licensing of DVD's:
"Any company making DVD products must license essential technology patents from the " 3C ' pool (LG, Philips, Pioneer, Sony: 3.5% per player/drive, minimum $3.50; additional $0.75 for Video CD compatibility; 5 cents per disc), the " 6C " pool (Hit...
Cool, with all this free streaming tv shows and movies legally, who needs Netflix.
S-E's financials are hurting so they're begging to suckle off the teet of Microsoft.
That's all this is about.
Now whether Microsoft has any more "bail out" money to give, I guess we'll see. Even they have their limits.
Have they announced a NA release yet?
I bought this first week it was out and it exceeded all my expectations. Has a good cast of characters, a good story, and a very fun battle system. No other game like it!
I guesss it's true that all American kids want anymore are straight up shooters. Jeezus
Gimme both now! Although I have to say, I'm more excited for Versus and it's not a fanboy thing. I really like the tone they're going with that one.
or Avatars feeling like Mii's... figures.
This guy is such a meathead.
Spain is a beautiful country and the people there have exquisite taste.
Crazy XD
Aaron Greenburg = meathead
Media Molecule are coding genius.
They deserve it for all their hard work
Good one.
Valkyria Chronicles was a great game. I'm glad reviewers everywhere are giving it props. Hopefully more people will pick it up.
That's been the problem for me lately though... too many good games out there I can't keep up!
Next on my list is Siren: Blood Curse. Been putting that off because I've been debating about upping my hard drive or waiting for it on Blu-ray.
Ahh screw it, I'm buying it tonight! :D
What good is pricing in a headset if you're not gonna play online.
And we're not talking a one time fee either. Every year you're gonna have to pony up.
And battery's lasting 25 hours... well, it's obvious people will buy the charger kit eventually. Who wants to keep buying battery's.
Definitely not an equal assessment.
or spinning lol
100% agreed.
I was just playing my Dreamcast the other day and was thinking how if the world went digital download only, that I wouldn't be able to play my library of games because their servers would've been long gone to re-download them.
DD works fine for music because their small in size and we have the option to make our own backups but downloading GB's of games!? There's no way.
Didn't anyone tell Square that when you try to please everyone, you please no one?
Since FFX Square games have been crap.
All they're doing now is trying to copy World of Warcraft game mechanics. Slash, slash, hack hack boring.
Characters suck
Their story's suck.
Music sucks.
This is what you need to do S-E.
Quit trying to figure out what the Western market wants and just create things that come from your heart and not ...
Sheep? You don't know me well enough to make such a claim.
I honestly thought the 29/40 was pretty harsh as well, but I'm honestly not feeling the hack n slash combat. I can overlook those things though if everything else is good (story, characters, music, etc.).
I guess I'll see.
