I was thinking more John Lennon. 

I was thinking Sean Lennon.

I just looked at some screens and it looked pretty cool but thats because i have some irish in my blood..lol nah it looks jrpgie in a sense but then again not. Looks like a sweet game all around!

Yeah... it does. There are characters that look a lot like that in a lot of Japanese based RPG games and Anime characters.  Not to mention the main character woman.   It's a very japanese based style.

hmmm, i wonder why it did do bad, its not like ps3 and xbox games are selling bad at japan.
Blue dragon sold what 200k copies, which is HUGE because japan has what .4 m xboxs total, thats like 50% attachment rate, and eternal sonota sold 100k?

When i look at the gameplay i get mixed feelings maybe this will be another lair =(

Another PS3 game with good graphic and bad gameplay.
But the graphic is not good enough.

550 dollar system + new IP + AWFUL MARKETING = bad folksoul sales....
The way you market a game is a key factor to game sales (obviously), while folksoul may be a pretty good and innovative game it just wasn't marketed right. If you look at the facts Folksoul looked like it was going to flop before it hit the street date. Sometimes it doesn't matter how good a game is, look at ICO,shadow of the colossus, okami, systemshock, etc all those games were great but widely unknown.

 I honestly doubt you actually played the full game (or demo) to pass judgement and call folklore "bad gameplay"

I havent played so i wouldnt know, but from what ive seen, gameplay looks great and cool, but it gets boring maybe. BUt again i have not played, and it looks great, it just comes down to gameplay

Wel , I never played it , but what I heard/rea about it , the game doesnt gives nothing original , and it has no FF/DQ name :?
