New Disgaea 3 screen shots emerge

Nippon Ichi sends Gamersyde a giant new batch of screens for the role-playing strategy (SRPG) game Disgaea 3 planned as an exclusive Playstation 3 title at the end of January 2008 in Japan. A new gang of characters is installed, including Mao, Raspberyl, Almaz and Jiiya at their Maritsu Evil Academy school. They, along monsters, have really bad looking sprites.

Sounds good and looks to be awesome. Hope it is.

No it looks terrible, like a PS 1 game on a PS3. Very disappointing.

Edit: 4 disagrees? You guys really think it looks good?

You've never played any Disgaea games obviously... that's their signature art style. Even on the PS2, the games don't push any kind of hardware limits... they simply use a really fun art style and story that you enjoy playing through for hundreds of hours at a time. It will undoubtedly pack the deepest gameplay of any other rpg title just like the past two installments did. Disgaea 2 is the only PS2 game I still play on the PS3.

haha this iw the game sony fanboya were hyping a couple of days 300hr gameplay it looks like a ps1 game and its on PS3

[Charlie2688]

What I notice is that the cut scenes are all in High Res which is fantastic...but in the gameplay while scenarios definitely seem to be of a much higher res that ins predecessors and like I predicted the special effects are all in HD...the characters seem to remain the same low res as the previous games...while its not bad its sort of disappointing considering the rest looks VERY good

[lodossrage]

It was ALWAYS about enjoyment and pure fun. Not to mention 100+ hours of gameplay.

Alot of you xbots try to crap on ps3 about this game. But watch how well this sells.

This game sells better than many of your "great graphics" games.

The problem is most gamers act like 5 year olds. Graphics, graphics, graphics is all you talk about. Yet everyone seems to forget a game is suppossed to be about FUN.

This is why the wii is currently the top console. Granted alot of their games suck after like a day.

All I'm going to say Disgaea 3 is a MUST buy

[Bebedora]

that is not Disgaea's strong points. It's not gahrs o waah, or killah zone 2. It's Disgaea. Strategy with tons and tons of possiblities to it making a strategy fan go nuts.

[hazeblaze]

Exactly, the Disgaea games on the PS2 had PS1 graphics... and were easily the best rpg's on the system! This is a day one purchase for me!

[doomsonyman]

man the ps3 has so many quality games i can hardly keep track

[tocrazed4you]

Please don't be stupid disagea is all about gameplay not GRAPHICS smart people. Don't talk crap about a game just because of its graphics but what about the gameplay? Oh so I guess graphics is everything to you guys ok why don't you guys make a great looking game and all you can do is talk... Phew its gotta be good right, awesome graphics on that game... dumbasses.

shush u gutys were wining about halo 3 not looking liek gears of war but what u kids dont know there no way a game this gen even mayb a $5000 pc can make a game like halo 3 with gears of war typing grapics just not possible this gen then theres this it shud at least have better grapics then some psp /Nds but it does not absolutely garbage game .

[vaan]

This being a TACTICS RPG does not necessarily require the Unreal Engine 3 or .................forget it. Go and play Halo3.

[gtgcoolkid]

Don't try to explain. Tactics and gameplay with tons of hours but knowing this site, explaining that won't matter.

[HaKeRsCanRotINHEL]

the gameplay is were this series shines! :)

[Xemnas]

cant wait getting this one i have 100 hr in the frist one lol >_>

[Bebedora]

By saying that, you are way behind a guy I know.

[Lex Luthor]

My eyes are bleeding!!!

GBA graphics FTL.

Should of made the game for Wii instead.

[Bebedora]

Why stay exclusive? Well..from xbox owners point of wiev, it's a no-go. Showstopper, a total waste of...space? Then again, maybe it really would be enough with a DVD-9 disc? Troller

How come the background looks good the sprites look ugly, that makes no sense, it looks cut and paste on good background graphics. I think everyone will agree with me that there is disparity between background/textbox versus the characters.

I would assume that it would not take too much energy to sharpen those sprites, this is probably just a earlier build that they are showing off. I think the final product will look better, there is no freaking way they will let this out of the door with that disparity in graphics. (note, i am not saying graphic is bad, i am saying that it is not "uniform" if you know what i mean).

Even Street fighter receiving a sprite upgrade, i think they are probably working on it. These are probably place holders

[ShiftyLookingCow]

Disgaea was never about graphics of course but why not use better sprites, if not why not release it on PS2 instead

[Drano]

But they could at least make a little effort in using the new Hardware. I'm going to buy this game but I kinda expected more from them! Can't wait to see all the "over-the-top-exploding-t echniques-that-never-ends-of-de ath-and-destruction".

Jump Beyond.

I doubt anyone whining about graphics every played a Disgaea game.

You can take your 460p and 6-7 hours of gameplay. I'll take the game with 100+ hours of gameplay. Besides, I'd like a game featuring classic SRPG graphics (that are done well) to balance out the graphical powerhouses White Knight Story, Final Fantasy 13 & Versus.

[BigPenguin]

Did anyone see any prinnys in the screen shots? I didn't... how could they release some screens without the little penguins of pure ownage? So much ownage that they can barely keep from just exploding all over the place in a giant ball of awesome.
