Unimpressed by Blue Dragon - generic turn-based RPG with bland roamable environments - one of those "well that's XX hours I'll never get back" type of games.

But I suppose if you're in to that sort of thing...

Well, there's obviously more to it than what we get to see in the demo, but yeah, it was quite underwhelming and the character designs did absolutely nothing for me.

I can't look, so many bugs... aiee...

As for Blue Dragon, it'll definitely appeal to those who miss the old turn based RPGs. Like my wife

Toriyama art is something you either love or hate. I'm firmly in the hate category. (Still loved Chrono Trigger though)

That's the thing, though. I usually like Toriyama's stuff, but what I saw in the demo didn't catch on with me.

Fable 2 Combat looking great in that video Flabio. Apologies over the whole "coming out this year" thing, been stuck on Jury Duty and thus not been able to spare the time to watch all the press conferences this year!

Cheers

Bubba

I'm hoping someone else took a video of him actually demoing it, there's lots of subtle stuff there you can't really see in that video.

It's gone down really well with the press too (fansites are sceptical, but who can really blame them?)

Have they made a 360 that doesn't break yet?

In the Ace Combat 6 demo, is there an option to have an "in cockpit" view rather than just the third-person behind the plane view? I seem to remember you could in Ace Combat 1 on the PS1, but I couldn't see such an option in the demo.
