    It's about time the PS3 got some more jRPG's heading it's way.

    Sounds very White Knight Chronicles too.

      Squenix is too wrapped up in their Xbox 360 exclusives to take any notes. Call me bitchy, but their antics just hit a nerve with me...

        Funny, since they don't have much SE exclusives.

          They have more than they do on the PS3, so you need to recount.

          Relative to the PS3 production activity, I'd say theres enough.

          I never said that they didn't have more then the PS3 Cruxis im just responding to red who made a statement thinking they have a crazy amount from SE when they really don't. Maybe more then the PS3, but thats the same in terms of exclusives anyway, so thats not much of a point.

          In the end I don't see that as a big deal. More will come. This is a marathon.

      Call me nuts, but I liked Eternal Sonata's battle system. But a turn-based system would be just fine with me.

      I like the art design of this game; very cool.

    Meh. I will take White Knight Chronicles over this. Anyone notice WKC looking like; better than ever!? This will need to have some spunk and appeal, because Demon Souls looks uninspired and lacklustre at the moment to me.

      It looks too washed out. It looks like a mediocre hack-n-slash at the moment. Unless they show more stuff that's more impressive, I won't bother even considering this.

      Why Sony can't snag any decent new exclusives is beyond me...
