Co-op + 1080p? Oh snap. I already knew the game would be 100+ hours though. Most Level-5 games are like that. Cannot wait to see the new TGS 08 trailer.

wetowel5681d ago

This kind of game usually isnt my cup of tea but I keep getting more and more intrigued.

Pennywise5681d ago

Wow... just got all kinds of excited for this title. Coop RPG??? COUNT ME IN!

juuken5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

Megaton. :o
Someone's having fun with that disagree button. I know I'm hated around here but I don't really care.

Esena5681d ago

Level-5 is great - Keep it up!

Beast_Master5681d ago

There you go JRPG fans!! Now was it worth it, sounds like it may be as good as Fallout 3 and Fable 2, just on a JRPG scale.

meepmoopmeep5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

omg!!!

Level 5 is da bombzorz!

if co-op doesn't make it on release, Level 5 should write a note to reviewers
;)

solidt125681d ago

This game is must buys. Co-op in a JRPG is going to be cool.

B-Rein5681d ago

LEVEL 5 ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ape0075681d ago

online co-op

100 hours long

1080p graphics

all this with the tradmark level 5 quality

this is a true treat for rpg fans

I don't like rpg's,I play very,very few rpg games and I may love this

Liquid Dust5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

Holy shnickies! "clop clop clop" I just sh!t a brick! Im hella exctited. Rick how the heck do you always get first post! haha. Man do I love Level-5, It would only make sense that the game would be 100+ hours since ive put that munch into DQVIII, Im ready for my life to be drained away by this game

Sena Kobayashi5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

See how you guys cant be taken seriously. I remember posting a comment on a Earlier post of WKS and I said that the game could be better with co-op like in tales and all you fa99ots were saying : What are you talking about why does this games need co-op blahblah your crazy etc etc

and now we learn theres co-op in the game and you guys are praising them. you guys cant be taken seriously foreal.

WKS look cool tho and multi-player would make it even cooler.

some Rpg'S are fun when you play them multiplayer like Luminous arc on DS and Tales of symophonia on GC was also multiplayer

This is a RPG IT DOESN'T NEED multi-player damn why is it people think multi-player will make a great game better.

13 guys disagreed with me on that one and the same 13 agreed with the dude who said WKS dont need Co-op etc

PART 2

Now tell me how the hell is you guys going to disagree with me on this one? Im showing you the proof and you guys still manage to disagree . You clearly cant be taken seriously

Sheddi5681d ago

Im gonna get this game...fo' sho'!

sonarus5681d ago

I saw the online coop thing coming like a mile away. I have been hyping this game for a long time. This will be the first real next gen jrpg people.

Expect more surprises to come.

Poirot95681d ago

Personally, this actually has me a little worried. I know Level 5 has a fine pedigree and everyone is very excited for this game (as am I), but I'm concerned about the story. I play RPGs primarily for the story and I worry that having 100+ hours of gameplay AND co-op may dilute the narrative. I'm certainly not counting it out, by any means, but it's just something to bear in mind.

My 2 cents.

CaptainHowdy5681d ago

co-op & 1080p is KRWAZEE...and 100+ hours in this day and age is unheard of

Lucreto5681d ago

@Sena Kobayashi

I see what you mean but most people are more excited with a 1080p 100 hour RPG than co-op but co-op is not needed it is an extra feature you may use if you wish.

mikeslemonade5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

Level-5 is full of win. Square Enix should take example. White Knight Story is already a 10 out of 10. This may be the spiritual successor to Dark Cloud because those games were also very long.

Cenobia5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

Multiplayer does not necessarily mean co-op. If you meant co-op you should have said that. When you say multiplayer people think online deathmatches and things like that.

It's true that RPGs don't need multiplayer (which is why he received agrees). They are long enough to make it worth the $60, where a game like COD4 needs the online component to make it worth while.

Co-op is a nice addition to any game. It's always fun playing with a real person. Multiplayer, on the other hand, would likely feel tacked on to a title like this, and add nothing to the overall experience.

People are disagreeing with you now because you're whining a little.

Mozilla895681d ago

I spent close to 70-80 hrs with Dragon Quest on the PS2 and I thought that game was huge this should be amazing!! My only problem is that I get so sucked into their games that I'll have trouble not playing.

Jecht5681d ago

"There you go JRPG fans!! Now was it worth it, sounds like it may be better than Fallout 3 and Fable 2, period."

-Fixed.

sonarus5681d ago

Level 5 says 100+hrs is what they consider standard length so i am not too worried. They have the experience and the track record plus with sony publishing the resources are there as well.

I can't wait to see what level 5 has in store. This game will be better than final fantasy but maybe not versus since thats still exclusive :D

chaosatom5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

I think Japan will feel some love for the ps3 after this.

bunbun7775681d ago

I was not one of the PS3 users that were downplaying MP- in fact the last article seemed to mention aspects of Monster Hunter....now we know a little bit more about what they are saying....MP exclusive BIG monsters that are only able to be taken down with friends? Booya!

TheSadTruth5680d ago

when any ps3 game details emerged they are:
FULL 1080P!
SUPER ULTRA CRYSTAL DOLBI 5.1 SURROUND SOUND HD!
60 FRAMES PER SECOND
300 HOURS OF GAMEPLAY!

You people are so gullible

Homicide5680d ago

The more I read about this game, the more I get interested in it. It will be worth the wait. This could be the first AAA JRPG this gen.

This game is going to be epic

Liquid Dust5681d ago (Edited 5681d ago )

Life ruining time consumption epic or leave your kid at little league for 5 hours accidentally while youre playing at home epic or leave your soon to be wife standing alone at the altar while youre sitting in front of a big screen at your friends house cause he's the only guy you know with 1080p epic, or completely blow off studying for finals during dead week to play the game and failing out of college epic. I think you get the jist.

This game is going to consume my life just like DQVIII did in 05/06

Memorable Music in Gaming #21

Chalgyr's Game Room writes:

I am kicking things off by going back to a familiar well here - with a song from the Neverwinter Nights soundtrack. This is still arguably one of my favorite music scores in a video game ever, but I decided to lead off with it and then create something of a theme as I decided to pull all of this edition's songs from RPG games.

Neverwinter Nights (PC) - Battle - Forest Boss

I touched on the somewhat mystical quality of another Neverwinter Nights song last week when discussing City Docks Day. There were a lot of really good battle tunes in this one, but the Forest Boss song always stood out in my mind. The battle itself was not even the most memorable one, but right around the one minute mark, it reaches an epic level that just stuck with me.

The ten last-gen games that should have "HD Remasters"

Digitally Downloaded writes: "Below are the ten games we'd like to see make their way to the new generation of consoles this year. Or, perhaps, game collections that could be pulled together into a single disc package for even better value as we have seen other recent HD/ Remaster releases."

Snookies123388d ago

B-But FFXII isn't last-gen. I'd love to see it remastered regardless though. Brilliantly fun game, I just disliked the story unfortunately.

hkgamer3388d ago (Edited 3388d ago )

story was ok, but very unlike the other ff storylines where there is a clear villian.

i just want the game for vita/ps4. international zodiac version would be interesting to play but i hope that the original glitches(?) are still there.

i had more fun breaking the game then playing the game properly.

would also be cool if they added dual wielding. would make some rare weapons actually useful.

MrSwankSinatra3388d ago

I really would like to see a HD Remaster of both Twilight Princess & Skyward Sword. Those games deserve to be in HD

Relientk773388d ago

Are you saying that they could make Ni no Kuni look even better, because I would like to see that.

hkgamer3388d ago

they could easily make that game look better. just make it as detailed as the animation. the 3d models had a lot less detail.

not saying it didnt look nice, just saying it could be improved a lot.

DougLord3388d ago

NONE - lets keep remakes to games from 2-3 gens ago!

PeaSFor3388d ago

what i want to see:

Patapon HD Collection
FFIX & FFVII Remastered
MadWorld HD
Thrasher:Skate&Destroy HD
EA Skate series HD
Lumines Collection
VibRibbon remastered
Mario Galaxy 1&2 Remastered
BF1942 Remastered

WheatBread3388d ago

Screw that we need new games
