Grandia 3 announced for PS2.

I honestly think this game is going to be quite a cut above average. From what I've seen it looks absolutly amazing.

So how'd this one fare at the ol' game show?

If it was there, and someone's got the lowdown, could you fill us in on what will be new and improved?
..hopefully a less linear adventure than the last outing.
..and any word on the translation? - specifically if there is voice overs, does it sound like they are speaking for the benefit of the 6 year old demographic?

It wasn't at the Square booth.

Aw man, the game is nearly done and ready for an August realease in Japan, yet it is MIA at E3?!?

I was just getting hyped for it too, after reading that it has been in development since before the PS2 was released. Evidently GameArts has planed all along to let the PS2 mature so that they could muster the most lush 3-d environments possible. It is also said that combat has been streamlined to the point that it is more like playing a fighting game.

So what?, is this going to get left in Japan? Or let me guess,.. Sony is having it ported to the PS3 to be a launch game. (Yeah, just like I figured Sin&Punishment would show up on Gamecube)

I don't think Grandia 3 not being at the show is any indication of how well it's development is going or wether or not it's going to come out on time.

I mean, FFXII was at the show last year but it wasn't this year.
