Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



I've played a few RPGs in my day, but I certainly don't read fan fiction, attend conferences or masturbate to absurdist yaoi depictions of Cloud banging Party of Five's Scott Wolf. As such, it's hard for me to get really intensely excited about anything not beginning with the letter 'F' and ending with the letter 'allout'.

The above footage, though, shows exactly why I'm so excited about Blue Dragon. Not only does it look prettier than Lea Thompson in Back to the Future, it also has a compelling art style -- the sort of experimentalism the Xbox 360 is sorely lacking -- that conjures images of Leigh having way too much fun watching episodes of DragonBall Z.

(Editor's Note: Yes, I realize that's because the art was created by the man behind the aforementioned Ball-themed series, so there's no need to send us pedantic e-mails about how much more knowledgable you happen to be regarding a television show that would be more appealing to your average girl if it shot bees at her clitoris. -- Nex)

It seemed ok. I think this looks like more fun.
But hey Im not married to the idea that all these "ball" games are bad. This one is prolly really great and very deserving of all the hype

I would marry anyone who promised to have that as a wedding cake.

Looks good, I hope if the summons come thick and fast there is an option to skip the sequences. Not having that option ruined FF8 for me.....

Anyone else bothered by the fact that the creatures getting attacked by those marvelous attacks just stood there seemingly unaffected. A flaw like that would ruin the whole feel of the game for me.
