So the popular Japanese franchise from Falcom, Eiyuu Densetsu, has gotten a third title to show off -- a website has been launched to remind the world. If you're proficient in Japanese, you can read up on the announced characters, storyline, and world for the title. There are already a couple of wallpapers and PSP themes for you to download, with more to come every Friday until the game launches at the end of July. Check out the site and if it's your thing, get your import on this July.

Can you guys not directly link the wallpapers/themes to this site? The japanese site isnt appearing for me, the browser screen just goes white and nothing happens.

Also, what does 'Sora no Kiseki' mean? Its the heading of the article, but acordding to the actual article itself, the game is called 'Eiyuu Densetsu.'

Thanks :D

It's the third Legend of Heroes 6 game. It's "Miracle of the Sky" or "Sky's Miracle."

Legend of Heroes 3-5 were released stateside a while back, and they were not the greatest games. The three games of "6" were pretty good though, although I've only played the first two. Supposedly the third one is only a lead-in into the 7th game, since the main characters from the first two are replaced by another duo.

Rofl, my bad. It actually means "Sky's Orbit."

If this gets Westernized, I'd feel slightly stupid for playing them in simplified Chinese. Being able to recognize two words out of every ten wasn't too fun.

Legend of Heroes right? Generally, I'm a fan of japanese-style RPGs, but this series... just didn't get my attention. Nice 2D graphics and character design, but I need flashier battles to keep interested.

This game is NOTHING like Legend of heroes that are out in the US. I've played it in Japanese a long time ago on PC, and it's awesome. Google the title, and you'll see. Too bad, good games like these don't come out for the US, that's why sales in US are so poor while Japan is a complete contrast.

Personally, I loved the first Legend of Heroes (Tear of Vermillion). Probably my favorite JRPG and pretty much justified the purchase of my PSP. The second one was pretty meh, and the third was okay, but not great.

But still, it's no secret, bad sales of a series = no more games in that series being brought over. You can say "Oh, those sucked, the new ones are much better", but execs don't see it like that. It's actually even a miracle we saw the third LoH. I think someone at Bandai must love the series (since they were the ones that actually ported it to the PSP, the later ones were done by Falcom themselves)
