Best of the Rest: James' Picks of 2007
Pac-Man Championship Edition (XBLA) If not worthy of a Top 10 spot, then certainly Pac-Man deserves Joystiq's 'Comeback Player of the Year' award. I covered Pac-Man CE's overblown launch in early June, but it wasn't until I became a devoted player at home that I realized the sheer genius of the ...
PSP Fanboy review: Jeanne d'Arc

Rather, Level-5 has opted to add a heavy dose of magic, demons, and...
PSP Fanboy hands-on: Jeanne D'Arc
When you open the retail box of Jeanne D'Arc, it tells you that "you've made a great decision." After spending some time with the game, we have to agree. Level-5 is known for producing high-quality RPGs, and their foray into the PSP realm doesn't stray far from their previous works. Players are ...
Seeing the voice behind Jeanne D'Arc
Sony's upcoming SRPG, Jeanne D'Arc impresses with stellar production values. At Comic Con, GameTrailers was able to talk to Kari Wahlgren, voice of the titular lead character. In the informal chat, you'll see that she doesn't have a French accent -- it's something she just had to pick up for h...
Saving villages with Jeanne D'Arc
Gametrailers has a nice little video up from Level 5's fantastic looking turn-based RPG, Jeanne D'Arc. Unlike the previous trailer we posted, this one actually has gameplay and is actually from a game that you guys might want to play. The clip is of a battle in a village where Jeanne D'Arc mus...
A trio of Jeanne D'arc movies
The upcoming PSP SRPG, Jeanne D'arc looks incredible. Three new videos showcase the beautiful anime cutscenes, graphics, and accessible gameplay. It looks to have all the things that make Level-5 games so good. We're still a bit iffy on the voice acting, but color us impressed by everything el...
