Pretty new White Knight Story screenshots photo

Some of us continue to breathe all hot and heavy when it comes to any new material from the upcoming PS3 RPG White Knight Story from Level-5. It and Folklore look to be the first two imports for the system that have some real appeal for the role-playing/adventuring gamer, though it remains to be seen if this title is actually more than just a 'pretty face' slapped on a standard RPG.

At least it looks nice. There's no denying that White Knight Story is a great looking title. What we've seen so far is visually impressive, and the blending of CG footage and real-time gameplay action is already a crowd pleaser.

Now, Jeux France has posted a few new screenshots from the game, including some bits from an in-game battle. The pictures appear to be in a progression, and it looks like some kind of 'summon' happens in the last few of the set. Also, we're still curious about the circle in several screens that reads "attack". Maybe it's some kind of status indicator?

The word is that we'll finally get our hands on this title at this year's Tokyo Game Show. Stay tuned, because there we will finally find out if this one is truly more than a pretty face.

I always have a hard time enjoying games where I have to rely on AI party members not being retarded. It does look cool though.

I'll have to find a friend with a PS3 and see what the deal is when it comes out.

Looks cool, though I'm kinda getting board of the generic RPG people, or is that all part of being an RPG?

I hate myself for the effect pink hair and breasts has on me.

i guess thats the anime to CG style that gives JRPG the similar looks.

Hey Crunshii:

Your Sony viral marketing overlords will be pleased as punch to learn that I purchased myself a PS3 last night. For now it is a glorified web browser, albeit an HDMI 1080p browser.

I blame my purchase on Ron Workman.

Well, at this point, Level-5 has earned my trust pretty completely.

I mean, just between Dark Cloud 2 and Rogue Galaxy (DK2 is one of my favorite games of all time), you KNOW they are capable of great things.

As for the computer AI. That first vid that was released a year ago leads me to believe you can switch between characters at will. If this is the case, AI stupidity should at the very least be manageable.

Man, can't wait for this game to come out. All the videos I've seen have been beautiful. I have faith in Level-5 as well, so I hope it'll impress me like FF12 did.

Wow, PS3 has some decent looking games for upcoming release, first Heavenly Sword, now this. Definitely not regretting my 360 purchase, but would be cool to play these.
