A while back I posted an article about the upcoming PS3 exclusive game White Knight Chronicles. To my surprise, many PS3 gamers had no idea it was even under development, much less coming sometime soon. And now, another under the radar PS3 exclusive is about to get PS3 owners excited again: Valkyria Chronicles (VC) or if you prefer the full name, Valkyrie of the Battlefield: Gallian Chronicles. Developed by Sega and already released in Japan, VC is a tactical RPG that features a unique turn-based battle system called BLiTZ (Battle of Live Tactical Zones). Essentially, each turn you will begin with a "command view" of the battlefield. Players may then select individual units to issue commands in an "action mode". This mode functions in real time and you can even aim your weapons to take headshots, bodyshots etc. It is an interesting blend of strategy and rpg elements when you see the game in action.

You get to use Aika and Vyse from Skies of Arcadia as playable characters too.

I saw some japanese trailers for this game about a year ago. It still looks pretty interesting, and hopefully it can get rid of the awful taste Operation Darkness left in my mouth.

I think it's due to head for the US and Europe for around the end of the year. I think I remeber hearing somewhere that the reason SEGA where developing an English version was down to the fact that many PS3 owners from Europe where requesting the game be ported. But yeah I wouldn't expect to see it any earlier than Novemeber, im hoping for a 2008 realease for US&EU but im beggining to get doubtful. The game looks great though, first day purchase for me.

If it was on 360 his opinion would be switched, don't bother with him.

It is listed here in the UK in most stores and sites as a sep release. I have it preordered and will be booking time off for when this comes out. I love Sega SRPG's and while this is no shining force 4 it looks visually amazing, and I love the gameplay vids i've seen. I actually bought a PS3 2 days ago mainly for this (though I got Folklore Uncharted and a few others that haven't disapointed me yet either)

Read carefully. He called it boring.

"Looking" kinda indicates that he hasn't played it. If people like you didn't have to nitpick about stupid things all the time, you would understand that.

It would help if he used proper grammar though.

How tactical is VC? I've never played one of them before, and I have to say even hearing the word tactical, is a bit of turn off. I was pretty excited for this one, previously.

That's not a JRPG, let alone a RPG.
