I still don't know what to make of the game's premise, seems intriguing enough.. I alrdy pre-ordered it so I guess I'll find out in June (I pray they would have Jpn dialogue, the trailer is discouraging in this respect). FFXII definitely has struck a blow in my interest in RPGs, I've been more busy w/ the DS for a while. Can't wait till picking up Odin Sphere tmw.

That's why this is second on my list next to Eternal Sonata. But I'm truly impressed w/ the monsters and dark atmosphere, I hope the story lives up to expectation. Of course, I think the game is better off w/ Jpn dialogue as well, I just have a soft spot for the Queen's English like those used in the Drakengard, everything just sounds cooler.

Anyway, It's pretty. I'll give you that. However, I just don't think it's my kind of game. As exciting as ripping souls using the sixaxis sounds, nothing really excited me about this trailer. I get the feeling most of the hype recently stems from this being one of the few RPGs coming to the PS3 right now. Um, am I the only one who thought that dialogue was horribly stilted?

Wonder if this is English only like Resident Evil or Devil May Cry, I dig the British accents though. Yes, the vocal (former TM Revolution) is impressive as always, great song.

And... the Japanese release has English voice acting (maybe?). It's not like that's never been done before, but I guess that will make it much more import friendly. Wow that trailer was impressive!
