I'm grabbing a PGP Go in two weeks, pre-ordered and all (caved and traded in the 3000 - I always have to have the "new" model, it's really an irritating and expensive personality trait :) ).

There seem to be a lot of JRPGs in the pipe-line for the PSP. I'm especially interested in Persona, Ys, Parasite Eve and Agito. Plus whatever Atlus and NIS inevitably add to the PSP lineup. Tokyo Game Show should prove very illuminating.

P.S. Luminous Arc was a really solid series on the DS. All you SRPG and JRPG fanatics should check it out if you have the time/ system/ money/ inclination :)

Bad ass.

I also like the artwork for the textures.

Known as Rast Lanker in Japan :D

This actually looks pretty good from the screens, I've been personally looking forward to Agito and Parasite Eve, so now I can add this one to the list.

I fully agree their art style choice is superb! I'm already interested to hear more on this games story and battle system. Looks to be an action RPG, and if Crisis Core taught us anything is that the PSP is a great place for those kinds of games. :D

Hell to the hell ya,anotha psp rpg, character looks like he could be badass hope he has a good story.

Are we going to hear anything directly from TGS, or is it all getting leaked?

This is from Famitsu mag, many things from TGS are usually shown off in the Mag around the same time of the event.

1UP Preview: Last Ranker - Capcom's New PSP JRPG

1UP writes: "Every hardcore Japanese gamer knew about The Last Ranker before its release early last month. It had been promoted in playable form for at least a year, hype was high, and finding the game on launch day was difficult for those without a pre-order. For most western gamers, however, Last Ranker is a small blip on a crowded radar, and after playing around with the Japanese release version it's not hard to see why. Last Ranker was designed from top to bottom to appeal to Japanese, male teens- the same demographic that has made the PSP and Capcom's own Monster Hunter series a success in Japan."

.
Yakuza New Chapter: Black Panther new & returning characters.

Yurika, Chiaki, Sai no Hanaya (Kage in English), Sakaki (last) Tenma (first), Takenaka (last) Shouzou (first), & DJ Rikuoh.

The cut-scenes are in motion comic style a-la Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, but the character design is more close to that manga style.

In my opinion, more color & details than Peace Walker western style, which both of them looked great.

Hopefully, we didn't have to wait 1 more year for the English release......... : /

If there would be an English release.

---------------------------

EDIT :

Another scans of future new "Tales Of" for PS3.

Right image.

Looks great.

---------------------------

EDIT :

Aaaaaaaaarrrggghhh, Shining Hearts for PSP is also looked great.

Hope it would also released in English... >_>

PS: The character design reminds me of Taka Tony (T2), a hentai / porn manga artist.

---------------------------

EDIIIIIIIIITTT :

I actually think that Shining Hearts character designer IS Taka Tony (T2).

The Yakuza looks really cool.
