Those are some tiny screens, but it looks very pretty from here. I don't know anything about this game really, but I think this is the first Japanese game (besides FFXI) that I've seen on the 360. Sure, it doesn't look like it has per-pixel lighting and shadowing, but that could be a sylistic descision on the part of the developer. Or they're just lazy.
I do't know how MS will do in Japan but putting a completely new jap style RPG at launch is real dedication to improving things there, that I know no other console has ever done it before.
Seriously, I cant stand Japanese RPGs and their spikey haired Characters. I loved every little thing about Otogi (besides the camera occasionaly), but these characters look like they just jumped out of the last 4 Final Fantasy games. Blah

Ditto. I REALLY hope this one turns out well too, because from the videos and the high res screens I've seen it looks like it's running off UE3 or similar tech because of the lighting and the shading. The spell effects are awesome, and everything actually looks damned detailed, unlike a lot of other titles at launch.

Game's looking very good, I'd love to see a great japanese (action-)RPG on Xbox 360.
