[Loopy]

Mmmmmm, a Valkyrie Profile sequel with scans of Silmeria...smells so good... (http://img107.imagevenue.com/img.php?loc=loc298&image=d1d_5cdzp_1_70e4.jpg)

[Holy Knight]

And I'll have it served with extra Maple Syrup, please!

But on a more serious note, if this is true, I'm literaly going on a bid rampage. This game holds a very high place in my heart :)

[Haruhi]

If that's a joke, it's very cruel, Loopy. =|

[germanturkey]

i've heard a lot about that game... almost all of it good.. hmmm might buy the first one if i think its worth it..

[futurebiblehero]

!!!!!!!!

Oh my. I'll have to keep reminding myself not to get my hopes up.

[Akito]

I wouldn't be too surprised if we saw a sequel to VP sooner or later. It's easily Tri-Ace's best game.

[futurebiblehero]

I know they're supposedly making a port for PSP, but that's not what this appears to be. If we get a sequel to Valkyrie Profile, I'll be beyond elated.

I've been out of the loop for awhile, but when did VP become so popular? I gave up on the original after the second chapter when the feeling of repetitive boredom finally set in and have not touched it since.



Though this news of a possible sequel does respark my interest to dig out my copy and give the game another try.

As far as I know, it's not. It's just the people who liked it, such as myself, really liked it.

[Mercenary]

As long as they get rid of the time elements, its good. I detest time elements in games. Oh no I can only go into this dungeon or this city X times before the game forces advancement. Time Elements are flat out stupid. Otherwise the first is very good, and a sequel is well deserved.

[{NG}Fidel]

Never played it I hate to say. I will check it out if its good though.

[Holy Knight]

Slash, slash, slash, Nibelun Valesti! Final Blast! Absolute zero! (enter x variable for special attack)! Ahh...good ol' days. I'm getting addicted all over again >_<

[HitokiriShadow]

I've heard good things about VP and I'd like to play it, but sadly, it's extremely rare.

If I ever see it used, I'll be sure to get it.

[Khorell Nataz]

*reads topic, faints*

Oh man a VP 2???? Didn't know about that. Ahh the goodness of the first VP still is stuck in my head.....feel the fury of the glacial blade! Final Blast! Icicle Disaster!

Go Grey....

Man a VP sequel would rock....

[Loopy]

A second serving, anyone? (http://i.pic.to/594rf)

The game is a prequel, Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria. Awesome, now we'll get to see how (and why) Brahms got his undead hands on her, as well as maybe even a meeting with Hrist or Lenneth in their human incarnations as the plot would have it.

[Bluemizu]

Funny, I was just playing the first game yesterday when I see this thread about VP2. I hated the time elements in the game. I hope it won't be included in the prequel. Oh, and the voice acting HAS to be better in VP2. I couldn't take the game seriously half the time because of the bad, bad voice acting.

[namekpimp]

Heh, wow. I forgot all about that game. I stopped playing after the first chapter; I just couldn't get into it for some reason. I did like it though.

And I wouldn't say that was easily Tri-Ace's best game. Star Ocean 2nd story was pretty good. Now that game, I adored.

That's because SO2 is their best game, this may be a bigger competitor if it doesnt have the time elements of the first.

I keep hearing about how good Valkyrie Profile is... Having not played it and the game selling for $100 in eBay, I have no interest to get it... Is it really that good?... I might get the sequel then...

Its not $100 good, but its better than the average RPG out there. I just emulated it to try it out but never bothered finishing because I hate time elements in games. I'll get the sequel as long as it doesnt have time elements.

Very nice (although the shot appears to be pre-rendered. If it's not, it's painfully gorgeous for a PS2 game).

[germanturkey]

to go along with the above post:

still haven't watched it yet.. stupid slow internet

and theres no cg in the trailer... yum

[Matsu'o Tsurayaba]

I never bothered to get the first Profile,and it does haunt me at times.I hear people speak of this gaming series every so often.Is it possible to get the first version?

[germanturkey]

yeah, its still floating around here and there..

[Westlo]

eh... so2 aint touching VP imo.

[germanturkey]

hmm, you guys check out the new opening thats out? so pretty (i know its CG) but check out the in game SS, its freaking beautiful http://media.ps2.ign.com/media/788/788661/vids_1.html

[_jwb388_]

It's one of the games I plan to buy or might get it for all of the other games I want for x-mas instead of a ps3.

[Dalmain]

This is a must buy on my list..no waiting on this one.

Same, I can't wait for this.

[Bluemizu]

The intro movie clip is awesome! I expected beauty when it came to Square making CG movies and VP2 is no exception! I half expected to hear god-awful voice acting, but nope, the voices sound quite good! There are a lot of games I want to get come fall and I can't get them all. Will VP2 be my "must buy upon release" game? Hmm...

[HitokiriShadow]

I haven't played the first game, but I pre-ordered this a few weeks ago and I am looking forward to it.

[Loopy]

This game looks AMAZING. Not to mention Lezard is back. From what I hear his appearance is for storyline purposes not just for kicks (i.e. Seraphic Gate, hidden dungeons, etc.) so I'm salivating at the mouth as I type this.

[Westlo]

Yeah I just watched all the vids off IGN and this game is shaping up very nicely, going to replay the original after I finish Suikoden 5.

[Westlo]

Just watched the latest IGN clips and Nibelung Valesti looks great.

[crow-kun]

If the voice acting is a grating as the first I probably won't buy it.

I'm sure the dub will be fine. Square is pretty good at localization.

[ben93085]

I'm sure the dub will be fine. Square is pretty good at localization.

Ummmm.....yeah.....
Go To Game Trailers and there is a traile of the game, and the dub is OK, but there are lapses in the dialog, from what they guessed was the game loading the audio files.....
As a whole the game looks pretty good. It's going to be one of PS2's last bangs before it fizzles out, and Sony kills a good thing with the PS3.

[SuperHiko]

I'ma buy it
