PS3Center reports:
Famitsu have released new screenshots of Sega's upcoming PS3 exclusive strategy-RPG, Valkyrie of the Battlefield, on their website.
The shots emphasize the wonderfully unique brushstroke art-style that Sega have developed for this game, which is due for a Spring 2008 release in Japan.
Traveling games journalist Quintin Smith looks at over-the-shoulder strategy in Sega's sleeper PlayStation 3 title Valkyria Chronicles, exploring the title's little-publicized depth and charm.
such a fantastic game and a classic sleeper hit, word of mouth is key for this game, spread the word and dont buy it second hand, its so easy to pick up for a few quid lets give the developer the respect they deserve
From Source:
"Sega has finally brought Valkyria Chronicles to the west, six months after the Japanese release and following much positive feedback from the gaming community. Now that the game is here, was it worth the wait?"
Lol. Well you say that - but take a look at their Sonic Chronicles review.

They don't give high scores to all the games. They are pretty fair.
I think this is the best game Sony has done in quite some time. Bravo to them, but let's prepare for Sonic: The Next Flop With The Werewolf.

Valkyria Chronicles over Naruto Ninja Storm and COD5. Hope it was the right purchase. Gotta finish up a few games before i get into this one.
Sega Nerds has done a pretty interesting in-depth hands-on preview of Valkyria Chronicles for the PS3, with a lot of information most sites missed out.
From the source:
"We were fortunate enough to get our hands on the Japanese version of the soon-to-be-released Valkyria Chronicles a while back, but since it didn't have English subtitles, you can imagine the difficulty we had trying to understand anything going on.
Fortunately for us, and for you, Sega of Europe recently invited us to come to their offices for an extended gaming session of the English version.
Rather than focus too much on the gameplay aspects, which we have covered previously, and you can find out on any of the Japanese reviews, we are going to delve into some of the finer aspects of the game."
I guess that we will get a demo later since the Qore users are getting it next week.
I hope this game does well, we need more developers putting out unique titles like this. Kinda sucks there's no rumble though.
kinda sucks theres no rumble, trophies or multi player imho
but it looks good. ill support this!
i hear the game is excellent. its been out in japan for a while and the reviews have been good. customer reviews especially. noticed it first on play-asia.com
The art direction for this game is absolutely stunning. I downloaded the trailer of the Japanese PSN a month or so ago and it looks incredible. The way the trailer starts where it kinda sketches a tank with it's occupants into being and then animates it in 3d... Very impressive design.
Does anyone know if Sega have any plans to bring this to the UK/US
something, what i call a NEXTGEN.
