About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

'The Legend of Heroes' (PSP) Coming to North America

by Judy on July 14, 2005 @ 4:14 p.m. PDT

Bandai today announced that they are publishing The Legend of Heroes for the PSP in the United States in September. The game is a single-player turn-based RPG featuring more than 100 unique characters to interact with and over 50 hours of gameplay.

The Legend of Heroes also boasts a deeply involving story line that unfolds in one of the most beautifully crafted 3D environments available on the PSP system.

Known by the name: Eiyuu Densetsu ("Legend of Heroes") Gagharv Trilogy: Akai Shizuku ("Crimson Tears") in Japan, the game is developed by legendary Nihon Falcom in Tokyo. The company is well known for their RPG work on many platforms and brands, including the "Ys", "Brandish" and "Sorcerian Series." While faithful to the "Legend of Heroes" series, players unfamiliar with the story will discover an easy-to-pick-up gameplay experience.

The game also features more than 100 types of original character illustrations by Minako Iwasaki, a beloved ex-Falcom artist who has redrawn her characters specifically for the PSP system.
