MIA Japanese PS3 games get new mag coverage

[Shin-Ra]

Not much use for us but it's nice to see some of these games appearing that haven't had any coverage for a long time. The trailers I've included are the last released.

White Knight Story / Shirokishi Monogatari (Level-5/SCEJ - this game will be HUGE!)

MOV [120.7 MB]
WMV [115.5 MB]

Afrika (Rhino Studios/SCEJ)

WMV [51 MB]

Ni-OH (KOEI)

MOV [31.8 MB]
WMV [33.2 MB]

According to the 360 fanboys - didn't you know the PS3 is dead.

Great stuff! I sure hope they plan to release localized versions of the Japanese imports to the states officially. After all they use the same region code.

That White Knight game looks frickin' awesome, I may not need FFXIII if that comes to the UK anytime soon. I mean they did away with random battles and they are getting rid of turn based battles anyway. For me that looks like the best game, and Level 5 are good developers so they wouldn't put out a bad game in the first place.

We need White Knight. That game looks frigging awesome!!!

It does look sweet. I got confused, thought i was playing for a minute! The best graphics ive seen in game by far.

Oh yeah, Ni-Oh.

It looks like a cool game (from the creators of the Samurai Warriors game series).

Hope it comes in 1080p goodness

I'm confused, it looked like those are trailers from Tokyo Game Show, so where is the new information? Or is there nothiner (yet)?

do they have a release date for Afrika? looking forward to that game.

I haven't heard anything on White Knight in a while but I'm sure that game is going to be a must buy.

Boxart for another Japanese game that's had relatively little coverage still:

Folks Soul: Forgotten Legend



previously known as: Monster Kingdom, Unknown Realms

IGN:

FolksSoul Demo Set For June

Today, Sony announced another demo. This one is for FolksSoul, the title formerly known by too many names to recall without doing some actual research. The Game Republic developed action adventure in which you gather fairies for use in battle will see a demo in early June, presumably prior to the final 6/21 release date.

Sony has also announced a tie-up with Japanese boy group Abingdon Boys School. A promotional video for the group, who will be performing the theme song for FolksSoul, will be available for download at the PlayStation Store on 5/21. Since it's against our policy to write at length about Japanese boy bands, we will end this article here.
