New White Knight Concept Art

Hey, look! Shiny things! Level Five's upcoming White Knight Story may not be due out for quite some time, but they're certainly keeping interest in the PS3 title strong by teasing us with beautiful screenshots and concept art. There's some new concept artwork circulating the web, including the attached image. While concept art and execution are totally different things, I have little doubt that the creators of Shadow of the Colossus will deliver such a grand sense of style and scale without any real difficulty.
Now, is it just me or does this screenshot seem to reminiscent of Terry Pratchett's Discworld?

The PS3 needs something to wow us. This is pretty amazing.
Yes, it's gorgeous, but can't they wait at least until they're within a year of getting the game to us?
I'm too burned, too many times to be excited by material this young.
On a slight tangent, does anyone else feel that it's odd that gamers and gaming press spend so much of their time on the distant future instead of the present? I mean, a good film gets talked about for months after it comes out, but a good game seems to get most of its press months before anyone ever plays it!
Is what we actually get really that unsatisfying that we immediately move on?
Level 5 didn't create Shadow of the Colossus.
However, they have no shortage of experience in creating giant enemies in wide open environments (Check out the first boss in Rogue Galaxy if you don't believe me.)
