3rd November 2005:
Tales Of Legendia
Namco release some new screenshots from their RPG which features the furiously fast real-time battles of a fighting game.
Posted by John Grothier - PlayStation 2 - UK and Europe

In development for several years, Tales of Legendia promises to offer fantastic 3D graphics, dynamic battle scenes and an emotionally-charged storyline. The game utilizes technology from Namco's renowned Soulcalibur fighting game series, allowing players to battle huge monsters with a battle system that feels more like a fighting game using 'X-LiMBS' - Namco's new Crossover Linear Motion Battle System.

The anime characters feature in this title were designed by internationally renowned Japanese artist Kazuto Nakazawa, acclaimed for his amazing anime sequences in Kill Bill: Vol. 1.

Senel and Shirley find themselves shipwrecked on an ancient ship called the Legacy. It's a mysterious relic left over from an ancient civilization. From the moment they arrive, it seems that various powers on the ship are trying to get their hands on Shirley. They call her 'Merines,' a legendary being that can control the ship with only the power of her mind.

Power corrupts, and seems to bring out the worst in people who would stop at nothing to control it. Shirley is kidnapped, and Senel tries desperately to save her, forming alliances with people he meets along the way in an effort to bring Shirley back to safety.

In this video, Senel and Will, the town historian and acting sheriff have set out on a journey to find Shirley. Along the way they meet Chloe, a brave knight who'll stop at nothing in pursuit of justice - even if it means slicing people up on assumption, when all they intended to do was rescue a missing girl.

More - as we get it.
