@oneupdawg I underestand trying to appeal to the old school crowd, but they could make a game that feels old school but looks and plays like a modern game. This one just looks like very little effort went into it. 3D Dot Game Heroes is old school but at the same time its tongue in cheek art style makes it semi-modern. Mega Man 9 and 10 are properly old school in all aspects. Trinity just looks like they're trying to re-release a 10-year old game without making any improvements.
@oneupdawg It's not bad in itself, I'm sure lots of gamers want to play something nostalgic every once in a while. But what is a bad thing is that some games look like almost no effort went into making them, and that Japanese games in general seem to not have progressed at all in the last few years. Don't get me wrong, I'm not hating on them. I used to love pretty much everything from Japan. But it hurts me to see the state Japanese gaming is in right now.
@hydeistpl Well it's not really hurting anyone...they made this knowing full well about the American gaming FPS hype, and you gotta respect that. Personally, I find American-made games in general tend to be more focused on presentation, and much less on actual gameplay or replayability, which is what gaming is ABOUT....or at least what it used to be about, lol. I blame Halo 2 for all this...
I played the demo. It was fun but WAY too linear for me. I hate it when games push you down a 5 foot wide corridor. It might as well be on rails. And you can't control your character in the town. You access the shop and everything by menus. Not my kind of thing.
@oneupdawg You're right, COD has had a devastating influence on the market, and I don't approve of everyone trying to be just like it, because I don't really like the way it plays. I appreciate that the Japanese have their own way of doing things. I just wish they would start looking at Western games and taking little parts from them to improve their own games in terms of mechanics and design, without aping the West.
man...seems like japans game devs are dying a slow death...its sad they dont have a big budget like western devs. Wish they would take a chance and do something different.
I don't get it. Reading the review, the game sounds great. But they gave it a 6.5 still. Huh? The downsides of the game is that all you do is fight and there's no story. Um, most of the critically acclaimed games have nothing to do but fight.. and what story they have is laughable. So what's the deal?
I may have only played the demo, but looks like this game is pathetic - it's ugly, repetitive, the controls are loose, the level design basic and barren with lots of invisible walls, the narration looks like on the SNES with static pictures and text boxes. The list goes on. Why it scored a decent 6.5 I will never understand. Games with such low production values shouldn't come out in 2011.
this game is awesome i liked the gameplay and the story and the game atmosphere ,, loved the characters stories and their personalty .. overall awesome game for the people that love action rpgs :D and sure thing it's stupid to say that we have to buy the game for boobs i think this is in any game .. the one said that is really poor guy XD
The story is more like a legend or some fairy tale, and the presentation grew on me as I played. There is much good to be said about this game, perhaps from someone who played it enough to know there's nobody named "selena". Thumbs down, you!
Kudos to this guy for praising the difficulty. =)
since it's a PS3 exclusive, I'm gonna try it and give it a chance !

@simonx49 This is Gamespot.
So, a "Warriors" game, but with a more traditional Fantasy RPG world and story.
There's lots of side quests that is not random quests! :o
The story isn't that weak...
And the music is pretty decent!

the funny thing is than this is a exclusive ps3 game, so this will have a lot critic and haters =D
Battles look fun but it looks like they tore out the heart and just stuck with the bare bones of fighting.
I think i will give it a go, i like games that are cool and different.
Me too, do you have any recommandations? Like some underrated gem :)
@Astaticembrace nope, i played killzone for a day. didn't like that either.
You can buy this game... or wait for DmC
Looks like that game Folklore
I want to play this
@simonx49 um wrong place for that.
@jerryku Demon's Souls had almost no story but it was amazing!
@TheLeggio it already is 0_0

@Lluminari Good Review of game i gona try!
I think I won't get this game and instead I'll buy Resonance of Fate. Looks much better. Better gameplay and graphics. :]
Am I the only one thats extremely stoned right now?
me
@Bananensaft0ps and that's awesome
looks like lord or arcana for the psp.
Game would be better if it didnt take 30 hours for the story to get good.
@Nintendoman15
THIS IS SPARTAAA!!!
240p is manly. 4rth lol

💀💀

mobs remind m about wkc
@simonx49 You drunk too?
@0:55 Vanquish anyone?
"Non-combat adventures..."
Does anyone really give a shit about those?
If they're bad and interrupt the flow of the gameplay too much, yeah.
whaaaat ps3 once I saw the game I thought it was for psp
RPG of the year
@vespers119 I bet you played the Killzone 3 beta for days then, huh? Hahaha....I'm laughing but it's sad really ._.
