It's out now, 584MB.

I'm at 40%, I'm unsure if it's region locked.

Edit: It works fine, looks beautiful too + The text/speech is in English :D

Well I just did, maybe it just stops you creating new accounts?

First impresssions:

The demo is quite long (I'm not all the way through it yet).
I quite like the battle system (you can move your character freely), also you can see enemies on screen and choose to avoid them Grandia/Blue Dragon style.

The English voice-acting is typically dire ("I won, Somebody Take My Picture!"), I hope the european full version has the option of the Japanese dub.

The graphics, whilst technically not the best on the system, are really great. The art style is amazing, make sure you nisit the 'flower field' when you get to the village, it really looks nice, I hope there is more variety in the full game than just forests though.

Sullytao I think it was video marketplace content that was blocked. Not sure though.

Downloaded and played, pretty interesting!

Really liked the battle system, like how you can defend yourself, pressing B when enemies atatcking, move freely etc
I also like if you enter combat with enemy back turned to you, battle start with their backs turned.

Graphics r pretty nice, very cool demo, pretty big.
I wasnt interesting at all on this game, but demo changed my mind, as AllApologies17 said, really hope we will be able to change to Japanese voices with english subtitles.

How do you create a japanese account again? Hotmail with japanese nationality and then retrieve tag with that? I did it once with an US account but I forgot how.

Ah, September. Thats too bad because I actually liked the game. Seems like I'll have a huge back catalog of 360 games starting this year. I don't think I'll ever catch up.

I don't know about story or any of that other stuff yet, but that one battle I just got in was so fun and I really liked the powers. Purchase confirmed =P

Awesome spell effects.

If they used that depth of field/blur technique or whatever they use in battles and made you able to control the camera it would look pretty damn amazing, but I'm definitely satisfied with this :)

Even the clouds move!!

I'm at that area at the tip of mountain where you feel the breeze from the ocean. The clouds are moving =P

A little bit of a mixed reaction from myself. I wish the world were a bit.. bigger.. more interactive. I enjoyed the battles and the visuals though.. but also would have appreciated a more interactive camera in some of the areas as well.

Seems like an old formula with a new coat of paint.. but it was pretty cool. I'd also like to use Japanese voices.. these English ones aren't so hot.

Im glad im downloading on the JP system, don't think i could deal with those scrawny American accents that Namco love so much.

I might try switching the HDD to the UK system and see if that changes the default language, pretty interesting to know they can do this with games.

Loved it, Absolutely loved it! Amazing graphics, fantastic soundtrack but I have ONE WORRY, the combat system. i hope there is more to it than slash slash slash, build up hit level and then do special attack because so far this is what the game seems to be offering but I am sure (or should I say I hope ) there's more to combat that just that. an hey NO RANDOM BATTLES. THANK GOD!

Well real time battle systems normally don't have much depth to them, so i would expect this to represent what the final game will be like.

Most Tales of games have been button pressers.

It's why i dislike real time battle engines in JRPG's they are rarely fleshed out enough to keep a gamers interest, especially when the game last's 40+ hours.

*casts Silence on Jollipop*

anyway, loved the demo. Never doubted that I wouldn't, given that Tri-Crescedno is behind the game and all. Also, thought the English dub was good, considering it is a Namco game and all.

It seems the game is region coded too, so if you have a JPN 360, the game will be in Japanese, and vice versa. Sneaky Namco :P

I agree if a jrpg is going real-time they gotta copy kotor :)
