The show started with a Speech from President Hino, he talked about Dragon Quest then moved on to how they finished White Knight tory earlier than expected. He went on to talk about Dogma Senki, a webcomic prequel to White Knight Chronicles that started today with episode 0, it can be viewd on the official site. It's another story about the White Knight and adds more depth to the world. He finished by talking aboput how WKS will be continued for a long time through Downloadable Content such as new quests.
The next part of the show was a live demonstration, two members of SCE played alongside Aki Higashihara & Kazushi Sakuraba.It was an escort mission where they had to defend the convoy and defeat the boss, pretty simple.
After that we were shown to an area where there were many demo kiosks set up, finally we get to play it!
I started by making a custom character, people will probably spend hours doing this but I just made one quickly to get into the game. Starting the game, my custom character can be seen in the beautiful opening cinematics. There were many options available, save game, item transfer and network, but since this was an offline play stall they couldnt be accessed.
Into battle! Monsters can be seen and encountered on the field and the combat takes place right there and then. your party members are always on the field too. You can tell if there's a giant monster around because the screen starts to shake. Depending on the creature the screen will pan out to show them in their entirity so you can see just how much bigger than you they are.
The game has many features you can take ingame screenshots there was a list of trophies but they all said ??? You collect many items like monster parts, I assume for synthesis but I didnt get to try it out.
In conclusion White Knight Chronicles ~Ancient Pulse~ is a great game for all PS3 owners and especially JRPG fans.

lemmming said:spoken it's lenard, I'm guessing he's translating kata/hiragana directly, which should be "renaado"
it's like ruffy vs. luffy etc.

Kyoufu said:It has all the makings of a great RPG, and then online for added awesomeness.
I swear, if this turns out to be a dud I'm boycotting Level 5 for life.
edit: as for sales, I don't expect any more than 300k LTD in Japan.

Agreed. I just hope the online features prevent some reselling for a while and thus make it have slightly better legs than usual for this kind of game (which I guess was the intention). But unlike local multiplayer on PSP (MHP) online has never been all that big in Japan I think.Wollan said:SCEJ isn't really helping with their marketing. Even zero cost moves like instant trailer releases on the Store and such haven't been happening. This game should have been on all cylinders since this spring/summer really.

rykomatsu said:snake on 2ch (i think it was him) posted that there was another vocal song that was new during the party...maybe ED theme..who knows
I'm reading a lot on 2ch atm that avatars can be changed mid-game...no info on if there's penalty on doing so and if there is, what type of penalties there are...
