I want to review a certain other game, but I'm waiting to finish it first, so in the meantime, I'll review a similiar game: Phantom Brave.
Overview:
PH was created by N1, (Nippon Ichi for all you nubz,) for the playstashun-too. It is an insane srpg that will eat hundreds upon hundreds of hours out of your life.
Visuals:8
I always say that 2d is better than 3d, and this game apparently agrees with me! All the characters and object are sprites, (and very well done ones at that!) The cutscenes are all well constructed, and visual effects for some of those attacks are quite amazing, (Rafting Fun, anyone?) Of course, this is a ps2 we're talking about, so a lot of the polygons aren't very sharp.
Audio:9
Voice acting is amazing. Sounds are amazing. Muzik is amazing.
Nuf' sed.
Story:10
Not to spoil anything.... WALNUT IS ACTUALLY SCARLET!.... No, that's a lie. Anyways, it's awesome. Unlike a good deal of N1 games, this game's story is 100% serious, which is a good thing.
Gameplay:10
Yeah, you saw that. TEN BABY, AW YEAH! This is the best shtuff out there, bar none. Easily ranks well with competitors like Brawl and Tales of Symphonia. It's similiar to Fire Emblem on drugs, for all you Virgins out there. Except with lot and lots and lots of customizationizing.
Overall:10
This game is amazing. Once again, I will remind you that this game is HARDCORE! All you nubz out there will easily get lost in the menu screens. However, with time, effort, and determination, you will find quite the treasure within this title.
