What do we know so far about White Knight Chronicles, the PS3 action RPG coming out this Christmas in Japan? We know it's bloody huge, for one, a point that Akihiro Hino repeatedly hit upon in a recent interview with Famitsu magazine. At the time, Hino merely hinted about what sort of online play would be in his most ambition project yet, but a clearer picture is starting to form -- and it's looking a lot like Phantasy Star Online, actually.
Grab your longsword, shield and round up the fantasy archetypes - there are Ice Dragons afoot!

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.

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.
I really would like to see a HD Remaster of both Twilight Princess & Skyward Sword. Those games deserve to be in HD
Are you saying that they could make Ni no Kuni look even better, because I would like to see that.
Alright, I like online co-op. This game is shaping up quite nicely.
But I wonder if it will compare to PSO? I have always considered that one of the best games ever.
Omfg can't wait. I'm gonna import it even though I can't read Japanese text. Just to see and fool around. LOL!
I actually got really wet, and im not a Woman.
HOW DISGUSTING.
AAA confirmed
4 player co-op then? 16 in a lobby, 4 play together. RPGs are really starting to catch my eye this gen. I just need that little bit of action to make me feel at home and welcome me to the genre.
