It sort of flew under my radar, but after seeing a review I'm really intrigued! I mean, how could I miss that this game had Studio Ghibli involved?
I'm very curious about the story and gameplay. So tell me, what do you know about this?

The idea apparently really is to play a Studio Ghibli game, and that's enough for me.
It's about a kid (of course) whose mother dies, but not before giving him a doll that he turns into a fairy with his tears who then enables the boy to travel to another reality with a magical book. Or something like that. Beyond that I'm not sure. It's been awhile since I've gone looking for information on it, there may be a lot more out there than there was before.
The battle system is supposedly rather complex in contrast to the cartoon graphics, but from what I recall, the JP DS version used some kind of drawing mechanism for the magic, and I'm not sure how this will translate to PS3.
The music should be awesome, though, Ghibli used their in-house guy who scored Howl's Moving Castle, Kiki's Delivery Service, Spirited Away, et al.
I was very interested in it until I saw the actual gameplay. The battles are apparently like Pokemon/Digimon/Jade Cocoon/etc. with little creatures.
I like Kung-Fu.
Games are too expensive when they first come out but there is also a special edition of this game.
Already have my copy paid off. ;P
I'm giving the pokemon style of gameplay a pass, the real time approach keeps things intense enough to give it a slight edge over its predecessor.
Returners Represent!
This is the kind of game I'd like to buy a few months down the line when it drops in price. I'm really interested, but I want to see how the game is received first. So, anyone who does get it... please let us know if you think it's worth the cash!
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Oh, you'll get an opinion from me.
You'll always get an opinion from me. ;P
Jim Sterling said it's another Dragon Quest VIII, in the best possible way imaginable. I don't always vibe with what he says, but every once in a while, he understands exactly how I think.
I really want this game now.
This game looks beautiful, and I really want it. But I'll have to wait.
"... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
