The latest issue of Famitsu contains screenshots and concept art from the latest installment of Capcom’s Monster Hunter Series for the Wii.

The Monster Hunter series is currently one of the most popular franchises in Japan, with the game selling a huge amount during release accompanied by very long legs afterwards. One can only wonder how the Wii’s motion controls can enhance or destroy the Monster Hunter experience and affect the sales of this game.

Famitsu features some screenshots from the latest PS3 RPG named White Knight Chronicles. This game is developed by Level 5, who also made the Dark Cloud and Professor Layton series. What’s better is that a release date has been finally announced: December 25, 2008.

This would make the perfect Christmas gift for any Playstation 3 RPG fan. The issue also contains an interview from the Level-5 developers.

The bad news? Well its the Japanese release date. NA and PAL will have to wait a little bit longer for this game. But if you’re in a hurry and can read Nihongo, you can simply import this game.
