A stratey-RPG offering from the makers of Dark Cloud. Jeanne d' Arc takes place in a fictitious world inspired by Jeanne d' Arc (known more commonly in English as Joan of Arc.) The game's background story begins far in the past, during a long war where dark gods attempted to use their demon armies to enter the human world but were stopped by five heroes. The story jumps forward to the 15th century AD as France and England battle during the 100 Years' War. You play as Jeanne as a 17 year old girl. When Jeanne is attacked by a demon at a festival, voices encourage her to defeat the monster and take up the legacy and eblem of the five heroes. Together with friends Lian and Roger, she takes up the cause to lead France towards victory against attacking demons and the English army. Gameplay is presented in 3D turn-based RPG play, utilizing the unique character powers and game rules to determine your offensive and defensive strategies.

this one might be good...
After reading what you wrote about the game it does sound very interesting. I mean the real "Joan of Arc" though she heard voices too and was burned at the steak for harrasy. The idea of this game being created within one of those "not quite our world" scenarios could be really amazing.
I'm wonder if she'll be given any magical weapons to fight demons with? I'll have to look for this game. It's definetly caught my attention
The game looks pretty cool, Dark Cloud is a cool game, same makers, that has the makings of a good game. Another Reason to get a PSP.
yeah i just hope this game doesnt have super long load times like most other grid based RPG's on the PSP...
we'll keep our fingers crossed, because it really shouldn't take all that long to load up something as simple as a grid-based combat system. Though the game looks like it'll be top notch, so maybe we'll get lucky.
PSP actualy getting a good game? Sweet.
I love those anime intros... and yeah for a number of months now the PSP has been picking up steam and coming out with some amazing games, with plenty more on the way.
well yeah i guess that its up to the developer to deal with the load times, like most of the games that NIS America released had horrible load times like the Generation of Chaos games and Spectral Souls, those games had really interesting story lines but the super long load times made them so boring, thats why i stopped playing them. hopefully this game does the psp some good.
I thought you might get a kick out of this Angel.
