Yeah thats it I'm going to get a ps3 -.-
I'm tired of seeing all these trailers and them being ps3 exclusives T.T

OT: This looks great and seems like a very good game. Going to have to pick this up and all the others and a ps3 soon.

Coming 2010 Jan, we're also getting the expansion they're adding to the Japanese community so it's hassal free to us.

The first game was a major hit. It's an RPG with 100 hour gameplay, it's 1080p native resolution as well and they went all out on the Blu-ray disc (50GB). I forgot what other nice features it has. Oh yea, the gameplay is also CG. Pretty damn nice I'd say. 100 hour gameplay for an RPG (storyline, excluding side quests). First half you'll spend your time trying to find the princess or rescue her. I don't know about the second half. It also has Japanese voices with English subtitles, which is a must in my book.

Ok, i'll go have a look into the frist white knight. This might be a game worthy of my attention =P It might even beat FFXIII as being my frist ps3 rpg (ps3 but no rpg = me sad).


EDIT: After looking into the frist game theres one thing that two player reviews agreed upon. That is that if your looking for a great singler player rpg this is probably not the best choice, but if playing online is your thing then White Knight Chronicles is alot better. Not sure about this tbh, problem with online rpg's is being unable to play when u like or even turn off when u can't be bothered anymore (Im not gonna go deeper into explaining that). I'll see what they say once it gets closer to the release date.

a lot of those issues are being fixed, specially the online gameplay. the single player is much better to what i heard.

From what i've read and understood it seems the original problems were that the games main quest required almost zero leveling/powering up to complete. Yet at the same time the side quests were so hard that only having other players fight with you could you even attempt them.

But if all thats gonna be fixed then i might have to go get this afterall. It's supposed to have excellent character creation and customisation of skills.

They're fixing those problems. The major ones are the online from what I heard. So our version will have the "fixed" stuff. The Japanese one will also have an update similar to ours. We're also getting an expansion within the game itself as the Japanese will have to download it (no idea if they have to pay).

Hey tatsu, what site are you getting most of this info from?
http://www.psxextreme.com/ -- they'll always miss 80%ish of the information, no matter what they say they're not as perfect as these guys:
http://www.vg247.com/ -- i like them a lot.
http://n4g.com/ -- a lot of news on this one is bullshit and fanboyish. the others is rumors and the others are true.
http://www.gametrailers.com/index.php? -- for video watching, don't really need it for any news.

1up.com is also good

everything else, including IGN sites and KOTAKU, are biased fags. Eurogamer as well.

More news -- http://www.vg247.com/2011/04/08/white-knight-chronicles-2-picked-up-for-us-release/ -- The game will release in May for Europe so more than likely it will release in the US in May as well. Very, very good news!

Also, they've remastered the first game and included the -expansion- game (WKC2) within one disc. So pretty much it's fully loaded. You can skip the first story and head over to the second story for Western release.
