Rogue Galaxy

In case you missed it, Rogue Galaxy is scheduled to hit the States on October 5! This awesome-looking Japanese RPG is brought to us by Level 5, the same folks who gave us the positively divine Dragon Quest VIII. Normally I can't hang with this genre, but a unique setting, sweet overall design, cool characters and seemingly action-packed combat system has me excited. Check out the trailer on the official Japanese site to see for yourself.

On a side note: with only a few short months to the PS3 launch, the PS2 still has a lot going for it. Yakuza, Rogue Galaxy, Okami...these are some seriously good-looking and relatively high-profile titles. Seriously, I'm more excited for Okami than anything supposedly launching with the PS3. Rhetorical question: has a new console ever been bested by its immediate predecessor?
