Valkyria Chronicles

Valkyria Chronicles, known in Japan as Battlefield Valkyria: Gallian Chronicles (戦場のヴァルキュリア -Gallian Chronicles-), is a Japanese turn-based action RPG with first and third person perspectives (it can be loosely categorized as a tactical rpg). It was developed by Sega exclusively for the PlayStation 3 and released in Japan on April 24 2008. Western versions are scheduled for November 2008.

Story
The game is set in the fictional land of Europa in 1930, in the country of Gallia. Because of its abundance of ragnite ore (which can be refined into a powerful fuel) it has come under attack from the East European Imperial Alliance, which itself is engaged in war with the Atlantic Federation. Players take control of an uprising of Gallian nationals, dedicated to repelling the invasion. The game's visuals, which feature Sega's CANVAS graphics engine, have received a lot of attention. With CANVAS, the game's entire graphical style is built to resemble a watercolor painting in motion.
