Okay, there's not really a word for the video's awesome properties, but we trust that you'll know them when you see them.
Here's a bunch of pretty moving pictures from Resonance of Fate

It's been a long time coming, but it's nice to finally see a multiplat game show footage from both platforms in a single promo vid. Even if it's not quite equally represented on both platforms in the video, it's nice to see they both exist months out from launch.

I didn't think I'd ever meet someone else who's played that game.

Oh my god! Someone else who has played Septerra Core! I loved that game. I got it in a 2 pack with some Mech game from Midway. I loved both of them.

I had the same exact two pack set. Both games were pretty awesome. Especially Septerra Core, I thought they did a pretty great job on it.

Septerra Core was awesome indeed. I bought it and Shogo: MAD (the FPS game from Monolith, not Midway, that was in the dual jewel pack with Septerra) separately, in full retail boxes, and enjoyed both. In a trailer here on Joystiq for a new multiplayer mode for Monolith's recent FEAR 2, there was a Septerra box on a shelf with other old PC games. I liked that.

Well, this interests me somewhat, I have to admit. Not really a huge JRPG buff, and the gun battles look a wee bit overdone with all the flipping and sliding to take out Generic Guard #98232, but the city design is somewhat compelling and the gun customization looks intriguing...
That being said, a big ol' SIGH yet again to the androgynous male leads. I will never understand that, heh.

It's just culture differences, that's all. That's what's consider "manly" and attractive in Japan. Big, buffed-out guys are stereotyped to be gay in Japanese culture. So they have the opposite response. I remember reading somewhere once that Japanese players wondered why everyone in Gears of War looked homosexual.

This game looks awesome. I hope this is tri-Ace trying to make up for that pile of shit called Infinite Undiscovery. The battle system reminds me of a hyper Valkyrie Profile battle system except in three dimensions.
Only thing I'm not super thrilled about is Motoi Sakuraba and his fucking piano mashing. It was awesome the first 100 times around but now he just sounds boring. Still, he does have a knack for making great battle themes. Also, OUTFIT CUSTOMIZATION!!! I don't know why, but I love it when games let me customize my characters' looks.

I was thinking more of Equilibrium... which I enjoyed far more.

In the very beginning a girl jumps off of a bridge...
Is there some sort of cultural meaning, or symbolism to that? I notice in a lot of Japanese games/anime it often starts with a girl jumping off of something.

No kidding- every character in this is a cliche, down to the voice acting.
HOWEVER, the game looks like it's going to be a blast and I'll still be picking it up!

Going to have to see if the story is as compelling as the hectic gameplay. But Im interested so far.

The more I see of the combat in this game the more I'm getting a heavy Star Ocean vibe. :|

Looks awesome, I just hope it doesn't turn out to be mediocre like Star Ocean: The Last Hope

I can't understand Japanese, but I caught the bit when the announcer said elevator at >>3:00, as they were going down the elevator. Hold the fuck up. I was like, "Oh snap, they threw an elevator into this game? Shit's so cash."
Screw the gunplay or customized clothing cutscenes. Elevators are real 2010 shit, f'real.

Is it just me or does the rocket on the main page look like a flying dildo?
