If you're like me, you've watched plenty of the old Batman show your youth. Kerplam! Kablooey! PSP's upcoming Brave Story seems to have your standard run-of-the-mill RPG fare, but with some very comic book esque battles. Watch the game intro above, and then check out some gameplay footage, after the cut.

I used to like role playing games until the market got flooded with nonsense like this...nowadays its hard to separate decent titles from the rubbish...
I know Ill probably get yelled at for posting this here *gasp* - but Blue Dragon looks like it might be pretty tight.
over and out,

This looks pretty good.. I'd love to know how deep the story is, load times, etc... Any idea when this is due to be released?

bmsinc, I also get sick of the garbage throw-away RPGs, like Blue Dragon.

I've seen this game running... well sorta (On Youtube) and loading is pretty non-existant. Graphics are pretty tight, too. The only thing I can't comment on is story, since I can't read a bit of japanese.
Game looks great tho, hope it is.
BTW: Is it just me, or the intro music had this "Pirates of the Caribbean" thing goin on?

i liked the sound effects more when they were in japanese, it gave it a manga-esque feeling.
I can't believe there isn't more hype about this game, the graphics are not only good, they are insane when i was looking at the trailers and videos on youtube, i thought it was a ps2 game, the psp needs more traditional RPGs like this. and personally, i can't wait for games like this and Dragoneer's Aria. i think these type of games would be good on the go.

the voice from the second video reminds me of power stone, I love the glow effect.

Ok, been playing the game for a lil while now, and as a fairly old school RPGer I have to say that I am impressed. The story is interesting, battles are above average, and load times and rediculously short compared to any RPG on any system. The game is one of the few solid traditional RPGs on the psp.
Whoever said games like this are nonsense (before even playing it) must have been beaten in the head as a kid??? People need to give games a chance now and again. Plus I think the flood RPG games is great. They are in a golden age right now! Our genre is finally getting the screen time it deserves!
