well, i was hankoring for a bit of rpg action a while ago, and had a few weeks till suikoden 3 came out, so i decided to pick this gem up.
the first thing you will notice are the graphics, they are beautiful cell shaded creations. everything is so detailed and looks amazing. the sound is amazing as well, really bringing you into the wild west theme with proper music and sound effects.
the real fun here are the battles, while a bit more often than i would prefer, they are real fun. sorta stealing the movement system that made grandia 2 so great, it also adds the ability to upgrade your ARMS (weapons) and cast amazing spells and summons. the dungeons are all fun and have tons of tough puzzles that usually require switching characters and using their special abilities.
the only thing that held this game back was the sorta dull story. while it does pick up after a while, it just takes forever and is just sorta blah.
one of the prime reasons i picked this up was becuase it was so cheap, for 39.99 its a wonderful deal for any rpg enthusiest!
