I've never played this personally but apparently it is a very solid and much appreciated JRPG.
The critically acclaimed RPG Valkyria Chronicles invades PC in 1080p True HD!
All previously released DLC included
Set in a fictitious continent reminiscent of the 1930s, Valkyria Chronicles depicts Europa, divided and ruled by two super powers: the Empire and the Federation. The Empire has set its sights on invading the principality Gallia, which shares its borders with the two superpowers, in an attempt to secure an invaluable natural resource, Ragnite. Within this struggle a hero named Welkin, and his fellow soldiers of the Gallian Militia, ‘Squad 7’ are fighting back against the invasion and the Empire’s attempts to unify the continent under its power.
During the ensuing war, Squad 7 discovers that the Empire possesses a secret weapon, known as the “Valkyrur” – an ancient race with special powers thought to exist only in legends. With this new discovery, the fate of Gallia’s ability to defeat the Empire and save the lives of the Gallian citizens…

The original was a PS3 game. This one has all of the DLC included and supports xbox controllers as well as having mod support and a higher resolution + frame rate Link to a graphics comparison

Wouldn't that essentially just be a console port of this since it says this version is fully remastered for 1080p?

Anyone playing this should look into getting the remove canvas effect mod. Makes the game look so much nicer IMO.
