looks good. should sell like crazy in japan.

[AAACE5]

I was afraid that WKS was going to be like the Dark Cloud games. I'm glad to see it will be more than that, and will is almost guaranteed to push console sales!

[Homicide]

I don't know. No level 5 game has sold over half a million in Japan, with the exception of Dragon Quest of course. The game looks amazing. I want new gameplay footage.

[mfwahwah]

youtube... yarr...

[Lou-Cipher]

Is this game called White Knight Story or White Knight Chronicle?

It has been called both by many different people.

[AngryBot]

AND SO IT BEGINS! The end is near for the crap60.

RPG King PS3.

White knight story = white knight chronicles.

White knight story used to be its name, they changed it into "Chronicles" because they decided to make a trilogy rather than one game.

[juuken]

I think it's White Knight Chronicles now.
And DAAAAAAAMN, the game looks hot so far!

[theKiller]

the graphics looks on par with FF13,vs13! i hope they make a good story too, but seeing they made a trilogy it means it have a good story!
now remains the gameplay, i hope they deliver in that too!! if all goes well expect the first AAA RPG game this gen

[PopEmUp]

developer better than Square-enix

[jams_shop]

looks way better than few months ago

[Raoh]

i wish it were out sooner in the U.S. but with so many games out this holiday i can wait for the localization..

part of what grabbed me when my friend showed me this game was the way level-5 described the game in scale similar to that of Shadow of the Colossus.

can't wait.. christmas arrives on time in japan

[Jamegohanssj5]

Next year is just another years filled with games.

Graphics aren't amazing, characters look quite detailed but for some reason the backdrops are very poor quality. Can't wait to see how it plays :)

[VF34EJ25]

Seriously???

http://www.widgamer.com/scr...

It looks more polished than any "next-gen" rpg out right now.

[thor]

That shot you just posted was one of the characters. Which I said look quite detailed, and they do. You can't say that the BACKDROP in this picture is great. Look at the texture resolution of the sky, ugh!

http://www.widgamer.com/scr...

But as I said, I can't wait to see how it PLAYS, because gameplay and story are the 2 most important things in an RPG.

[HighDefinition]

Not that best quality, but still shows that this is one of the best LOOKing game out there.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

This is amazing aswell.

[coolfool]

It's blue, it has clouds, it's in motion so there is some motion blur. What more do you want from sky?

The characters is where it counts because that's up close and as you said, they do look good.

edit: high def - good examples. the colours created from the sunset look brilliant.

[HighDefinition]

The game is INCREDIBLY beautiful.....

I can`t wait I think this the most UNDERRATED/OVERLOOKED game out there.

[Blademask]

You just can't like a PS3 game ya know? Has to be something.

No mention of the amazing characters that are literally beyond anything we have seen on console RPG's in the last 3 years. And the background from the one shot was out of focus.

Does anyone else doubt that the PS3 is limited to just doing characters after playing MGS4 or Uncharted? The game will use all of the CGI tricks used in movies. Object motion blur, Depth of field, not just the lame full screen motion blur that is calculated as a 2d effect.(looks at Unreal Engine). Its the kind of stuff that is used to make cgi look a bit more realistic thankfully we are finally getting it in our ps3 games.

Gameplay is always more important than graphics. Luckily the PS3 delivers on both fronts.

[gamfreak]

Hummm the dark knight seem pretty bad ass.....
Cant wait for it to be release..

[IzKyD1331]

white knight, how do you make that mistake? lol

[tetsuhana]

No, there is a Dark Knight in there too. He's most likely the villain.

[Prismo_Fillusion]

Haha...giant purple toad.

[Cartesian3D]

for some reason I cant open the page. can anyone post Images somewhere else ? thx for your help.

EDIT: problem solved, thx VF34EJ25 for your link, I just add 1 to that number and saw all screens .. the graphics is AMAZING ..

with good animation and visual effects it will be one of the best looking jRPG s evar! plz put english subs , I want to import this game! :(

[gamfreak]

@IzKyD1331, what i mean is the villian not the hero, hmmmm wondering if we'll be able to use the dark knight (MEANING) The Villian.. he he

[lordgodalming]

or does this game look WAY better than it did a year ago? The art direction seems darker and more mature, and the character models look a lot more detailed. (Even if that one monster is pretty much a direct thievery of Bahamut in several different FFs.)

Man, I hope it doesn't take them another year to localize.

[Lord Shuhei Yoshida]

White Knight Chronicles is proof that AAA JRPGs only come to PS3.Lesser consoles like the flopbox get Infinite Unfloptastrophe

[Ngai]

Yesssss! Looking hot. It's burning my eyes!

[sajj316]

Holy Giant Frogs Batman!

[aiphanes]

Anybody saying otherwise is just kidding themselves..

Fable 2 has nothing on this....

This game could even be better than FF13....i said maybe....

[rockleex]

seeing as how FF12 was considered a flop for most people.

Hopefully FF13 returns to the fun addictive gameplay, absorbing storyline, great cutscenes, etc style. They can change whatever they want, just make sure the things I listed still apply.

Back on topic. If I remember correctly, WKS will be more similar to Oblivion... but with a more traditional Japanese RPG influence on gameplay mechanics, storytelling, cutscenes, etc.

Basically it will be the best of both worlds. Sounds awesome so far. ^_^

[beavis4play]

i'm loving what i'm seeing. hope they show gameplay at TGS.

[TheHater]

Oh, the will show a lot of detail, and gameplay at TGS. Oh and there is a rumor of a September 25 media blowout for this game. It just a rumor for now, but I hope it true.
White Knight is my most wanted JRPG of this generation so far, and I been saying that for the past two years.

[PeeboDaKilla]

I can't wait to play this on 360. Another quality RPG to add to the 360 lineup...
:P

before I get attacked, it's just a joke lol. I've been looking forward to this game FOREVER and I can't wait to play it on my brother's PS3

[SIX]

I'm not a huge fan of the art direction for this game. I must admit though that it does look better moving. I know it will be awesome because the guys at Level 5 are a bunch of talented MoFo's.

[random6789012345]

Does anyone no when its comen out?

[TheColbertinator]

Japan-December 25

Europe/America-Not yet announced

Australia-????

[kewlkat007]

It looks Alright....(Nothing special about the Art direction, like Six said above me)I need to know more.

Could this be my first JRPG for the PS3....besides FF13, of course.

This is not turn-based I'm guessing?

[FantasyStar]

But FFXIII still looks better, judging from the screenies I just saw.

[tetsuhana]

It certainly does, but it's also nowhere in sight even for Japan. The graphics look good, but not good enough for a 12 month+ wait.

[FantasyStar]

Time will tell eh? Good call.

[smurfie4]

The character models look too smooth. Dont get me wrong its a good looking game, but it doesnt look up to par with most ps3 games. Ill still probably end up importing it.

[Lon3wolf]

Some actual gameplay shots/footage would be nice. This sounds good though.

[Substance]

I also don't think this game looks AWESOME from these shots. Maybe I'm just spoiled from just beating Metal Gear.

[peedie16]

dude the frog looks sick hopefully you he is one of the boss fights

[aggh im on fire]

I used to love jrpgs but since playing Mass Effect they all seem a bit old fashioned now. This looks ok but nowhere near Mass Effects models.
