Valkyria Chronicles- PS3- Sega- Read any preview, watch any video, and it will do this game no justice. Imagine Battalion Wars, only fun. This SRPG takes the boredom one experiences while playing a SRPG and relegates it with live action, input commands that are commonly found in shooters. All done with beautiful canvas graphics. THIS WAS MY FAVORITE RPG OF THE SHOW.

 

 

That one sentence pretty much moved me from sitting on the fence with valkirya chronicles to buying it. I always thought I missed out on Batallion Wars, having not owned a GC last generation. When BWii came out i borrowed my friends Wii so I could see what I was missing out on. As it turns out - I was not missing anything. The game simply was not fun to play, had poor wiimote implementation and poor graphics.

Also glad to see the positive reception (from yourself and the crowd) of some of the ps3's best upcoming games.

 

Joystiq had a positive hands-on as well which goes into a few details of the gameplay

They also had a hands-on with both Resistance 2 and Fallout 3
