SGD '07: Folklore gallery shows off colorful environments

by Nick Doerr { May 17th 2007 at 3:01AM }

This title has been the least talked about game coming out in the next few months. Folklore seems like a fantastic game and these screens show that it isn't afraid to show its muscle. Granted, the muscle comes in vibrant colors and lush surreal environments, but the gameplay seems to be intriguing enough to merit a rental. Following two main characters, you capture monsters and utilize their powers to reach your ultimate goal: we don't know. You'll have to play it to find out! This October ... noticing a trend? Check out a video, after the cut.

this is a definate must get game. it is being totally overlooked by the general community, yet it deserves recognition of a greater level than eternal sonata, even blue dragon.

Looks like a PS2 game. Not real interested yet.

Also it's worth mentioning that this game was previously known as Folk's Soul.

Popfrogs: No, it was previously known as FolksSoul. And before that, Unknowns Realms. And before that, Monster Kingdom: Unknown Realms.

that's great popfrogs. why don't you go to every game you're not interested in just to put that useless ass comment. Better yet, go to a political blog just to tell everyone that you're not interested in politics.
Sayin it looks like a ps2 game is a big compliment to the ps2. Now I'm not saying... hold up, that imvu banner is F***ing distracting and making me dizzy...
As I was saying, my attention to detail isn't necessarily great, considering that I'm somewhat colorblind (no, i do NOT see in black and white), but maybe if you noticed the lighting effects and the well detailed mystical dark forest, you'd realize the ps2 can handle that kind of graphics...
I don't mean to put down one of this site's sponsors, but i swear that IMVU 3d chat banner is making me nauseous, and it won't stop. As I'm typing this comment, I fill like i'm stuck on a never ending spinning tea cup ride. and no, i've never ridden on one. hey imvu, please torture whoever designed that banner of yours by forcing him or her to stare at it till he or she promises to be more considerate or passes out. whichever comes first.

What? those look like PS2 graphics?first of you can't judge the game by the screen shots, you have to see it in motion.I have and it's beautiful, there is no was the PS2 can ever render those graphics without blowing up. lol joking.

Are you crazy!??! see the game in motion in HD.You can't judge the games by the screen shots, because the camera is no 1080 or 720, now is it? the games will look 100 times better than the screen shots, they all ways do.Especially when using HDMI sweet!!
