The last time I got my hands on Level-5's PS3 RPG White Knight Story, I was really impressed. I couldn't get enough. But I couldn't shake the feeling that it would be a very long time before I would be able to enjoy this title in the comfort of my own home, and in my first language.
Maybe the wait won't be as long as I thought. According to Next Gen, White Knight Story will see a release sometime before March 31, 2009.
Of course, that's a Japanese date, so I may have been right in the first place. Sony has not yet confirmed if the US will also see this release before that date.
I'll remain hopeful. This could be a major push for the PS3, a console that is sorely lacking in quality JRPGs.
What about you? Are you looking forward to White Knight Story? Don't you think they need a better name, though?

I am most definately looking forward to this game. Ever since I picked up a PS3 a few weeks back, I've been itching for a really good RPG to play on it. This makes me hopeful.
The same rule applies for anime.
we'll be talking about TWK anyway soon :-)
Oh wait..
no
White Knight Lost Undiscovery: Infinite Overdrive Requiem. Name it that and you have my money.
I'm looking forward to it in the sense that I'm a big JRPG nut, but I never really thought it looked SPECTACULAR. I mean, I'm sure I'd enjoy it, but I don't understand all of the hype it's gotten over the internet. The trailer did look a lot better than any I'd seen before, though.
I'll buy it, I'm sure.
The main character's 'rat tail'. I thought those went out of style in the 90s!
FUCK YA I WANT!
If this plays like Dark Chronicle (Dark Cloud 2 to you guys) or Rogue Galaxy, then this will be extremely desirable, regardless of RPG stereotypes.
Nice Krakatoa at the end too. BOOM! O_O
Any chance that this may be ported to the 360? :O
