Just watched the trailer... looks amazingly interesting, I didn't expected to have this level of anticipation in this game to be honest.

captive · May 21, 2007

Couldn't you just import it from America, seeing how PS3 games aren't region coded?

Ranger X · May 21, 2007

Wow. It's rare i am that excited with a trailer. I'm really hyped for this game now.

SatelliteOfLove · May 21, 2007

Great animation and art direction, that music is lifeless, by the numbers, phoned in '00s drek, though.

Edit: The story and characters sorta reminds me of a sort of "Silent Hill RPG".

spwolf · May 21, 2007

is it still early june?

KGKK · May 21, 2007

Game has a nice dark and lonely feeling. Not since Silent Hill 2 did I feel that way about a game. Can't wait.

vilmer_ · May 21, 2007

Definitely a day one purchase!

roxya · May 21, 2007

wow... this wasn't even on my radar before SGD. I'm so hyped about this game now.

Awntawn · May 21, 2007

Wow, I was kinda :lol :lol :lol when i saw the pic of the rock band, but that theme in the trailer is great stuff.

Looks like it's gonna be engrish onry, but so far it looks like it's nowhere near as horrid as what Capcom does (Lost Planet... oh god the pain). Gothic theme, more mystery as opposed to horror... I like. Assuming the gameplay isn't a horrible disappointment like Genji, I'm definately picking this one up ;o

Even just watching the trailer gives more satisfaction than playing genji

Mefisutoferesu · May 21, 2007

Wow, now that's how you make a trailer. I just kept watching it over and over.

Lot's of neat stuff and really has my attention, though I'm disappointed by the techincal accomplishments, but I guess these days that shouldn't come as a surprise anymore... by the way, I absolutely adore the playstation DNA thing, very cool IMO.

mr_nothin · May 21, 2007

Yea that was a really good trailer.
Love the theme by the so called 'gays'.
:lol

KGKK · May 21, 2007

Btw the release date for NA i when?

September, apparantly.

Kinan · May 21, 2007

Thanks blimblim for mp4, just watched the trailer on my PS3, very impressive. If demo will be at the same level its a definite purchase.

jiggle · May 21, 2007

Awesome trailer

thanks

That's the japanese trailer right? Is the final game going to have english VA with jpn subtitles too?

Kintaro · May 21, 2007

Very nice trailer. Definitely interested.

Nostrildamus · May 21, 2007

Nice trailer.

Ever since the media blowout from Sony's Gamers Day event, this has quickly become my most anticipated game. Though technically it doesn't seem too impressive, the creature and world design look really great. And going by the trailer, the story might not be so bad either.

Everybody whose played the game commented that the visuals are great..graphics are the least of worries, though the gameplay has had praise as well...story is the only unknown factor to me, and a vital one

Amy Hennig's directing the game but if she's behind the story also we can expect a really awesome story.

Uh what? I googled her name and see no connection to this title.

This game is made in Japan by Gamer's Republic, a Japanese team.

I was pretty hyped about this game but I just watched the trailer from the Sony Japan website and OMG - HYPE X 100000000. Definitely getting now. Just as long as it's not broken, which seems to be the case.

Cool trailer, but oh god that theme song has to go.

It's like if Factor 5 got Linkin Park to do the theme song to Lair.

Well at least Okamoto finally figured out the right stick can be used for the camera.

Station42 · May 22, 2007

is the japanese game all voice acted in english? this would make possible an import from jap...

I'm thinking the same thing, I guess we'll find out with the demo next month.

This game is going to get lost in the mix come Fall, so I'd rather pick it up on June 21st from Japan, even if it hurts US sales.

After watching the gametrailers demonstration video it appears that all the menus for the game are English too. Unless of course he was demo'ing an incomplete English build.

I was going to mention that it appears the handwritten "hint book" in the menu is all kanji, but I just looked again and the book is actually written in some fictional gibberish language and the actual hints are the pictures :lol

Regardless, this game needs a world-wide release ASAP.

The last thing I want is for them to rush an Okamoto game, I get kind of scared when it comes to Game Republic, give them time to polish it up, plz.

It was the English one if I remember correctly.

kaching · May 22, 2007

Love the creature designs. This gen is going to be fabulous for that. Finally enough detail can go into the 3d models where very little has to be lost in the transition from original artwork.

guess you're right, lots of stuff coming out...it might be worth waiting for it a little longer.

duckroll · May 25, 2007

Demo's coming next week (June 1st) on the Japanese PSN. The size of the demo will be 1 gig.

Lain · May 25, 2007

klee123 · May 25, 2007

Man, the trailer just made me go from "interested" to "want ASAP!" I just hope the gameplay is at least good after what I played of Genji 2, but it looks like you can control the camera this time. I'll probably end up getting the JPN version if it's bilingual.

FoxhoundNL · May 25, 2007

Looks very impressive, especially the creature designs and the use of color. Can't wait for the demo!

Cmagus · May 25, 2007

Already pre-ordered and paid for the import copy looking forward to this game very much

Zoe · May 25, 2007

The demo is scheduled for 6/1

jaundicejuice · Jun 15, 2007

So how import friendly, for those of you who have played the demo, would say this game is? I haven't gotten a network set-up just yet but am kind of keen on getting Folk Lore/Folksoul.

Arch · Jun 15, 2007

The entire thing is in Japanese, there's lots of text and voice acting and from the 10 minutes I played of it(theres about 5 minutes of cutscenes, yes, all in japanese) I couldn't figure out where to go or what to do. Invisible walls galore.

YYZ · Jun 15, 2007

it's not import friendly at all to be blunt.

jaundicejuice · Jun 15, 2007

So wait it is.
