IGN Impressions " With Level-5's animation system, swords realistically strike other swords and shields, rather than cutting right through models. If a warrior blocks an incoming attack, you'll see his shield go up and physically block the blade. The collision is perfect. In White Knight Story, two characters sparring really look like they're sparring."

White Knight Chronicles has been thought of by many as a title that would turn the tides of the console war in Japan. It was to be the first major, big budget Japanese RPG exclusive to the PS3. The title was scored a very sub-par 29/40. For a reference, the latest JRPG to hit the Japanese market prior to White Knight, the Last Remnant, scored a 38/40, and Enchanted Arms, a JRPG generally considered to be the worst JRPG this generation, scored a 29/40.

"During the recent PlayStation Premiere 2007 event, a new battle scene was shown between a group of large enemy creatures and the White Knight, as well as regular-sized human characters well. Hino says, "In order to show the differences in size, it was important to place both large and small characters. The White Knight was originally set to be 15 meters tall. But then, it would not fit on screen if we put the small characters, so we settled for 7 meters in the final game which just fit in perfectly." "
