[psycho_snake]

It looks alright, but its not as good as I would have hoped it would look.

 

[Kai Dracon]

FFIII called and wants the DS back now

 

[Zilch]

Direct-feed screens of this game look much better than the screens I've seen in scans/elsewhere. Nice.

 

[Widfara]

Does anyone know what the other screen is used for? If anything, that is.

 

[soundwave05]

Does anyone know what the other screen is used for? If anything, that is.

Since its an RPG, I'm guessing stuff like party management/battle commands, that sorta stuff.

 

[Soul4ger]

The sprites, at least, look quite nice. Hope they animate well.

Odds of this coming to America? Small, in my mind.

 

[SpiffyG]

Whoa! Ash is in this game?

 

[kiryogi]

The sprites, at least, look quite nice. Hope they animate well.

I really wonder. After seeing how the AGWS animated in the TGS videos, urgh totally stiff. But the battle animations outside of that looked okay.

 

[bummyhead]

these at least gave a little bit more colour thant he older screens, but still bland and underachieving. Especially after seeing FF3.

I do hope it gets released here though because I am an RPG whore.

 

[B.K.]

Does anyone know what the other screen is used for? If anything, that is.

Just menu stuff, apparently.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Well this seems to look nicer than the last batch of screens.

 

[bummyhead]

Well this seems to look nicer than the last batch of screens.

i wish i could put my finger on exactly what is different....

 

[Sho Nuff]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

20 minute cutscenes in 2D sprites!

 

[demi]

I'll buy it

God the PS2 versions are horrible

 

[Shaheed79]

Is this Namco's first RPG for the DS? I hope they increase the budget for Baten Kaitos DS because a slight downgrade could make this a GBA game. And I'll just add my "FF3 DS rocks" disclaimer and I'm outta here.

 

[Abel]

More screens seen here

[Robobandit]

If they're using a consistent art style for this package, count me in. That was one of my biggest turn offs about Xenosaga II. (I liked the new ones, but they should have been consistent. Do "realistic" or don't, but don't change it between games in a series with a sequential storyline)

 

[Xellotah]

Hmm... Did the have to do it in isometric 3D... It just looks odd. I would have preferred if they adopted a top down view.

 

[mutsu]

Nice, most definitely going to get this.

 

[ziran]

i like the look of this game. i think monolith has done a good job transferring it to ds.

 

[u_neek]

FF3 and this.... I need a DS..

 

[jarrod]

Ugh. They should've just ported Namco x Capcom instead.

 

[typhonsentra]

I think I'll pick it up. Never bothered beating the first, never even got the second.

 

[..pakbeka..]

I really want to play this


however I must admit I've seen flash games with better sprites

 

[callous]

I am so all over these games. Damn that looks nice.

 

[Leatherface]

 

[GDGF]

This looks nice! It's like what you'd get if Phantasy Star II and Pokemon had a lovechild.

I need to see more, but it's looking good.
