I have been hearing a lot of good things about this game but I still have my doubts. I am about to try the demo right now but I was wondering if anyone who has played it could give me their opinion on whether its worth the 50 bucks or not.

I just got finished with Oblivion, and to be honest I think I am going to have a hard time finding a RPG that matches up to it. So, would Eternal Sonata be a fair match? If not, are there any other great RPG's I'm missing out on?

Lol that probably would be a turn-off for me. It would all depend on how fun the game actually is.

Thanks for that little review by the way.

The voice acting isn't the greatest, but if you're a fan of RPGs it's a solid game to add to your collection. I'm having fun so far and it's definitely a nice looking game.

Unlike this joker i've actually played the game, i think it is certainly one of the best RPGs since FF9. Like this guy says i guess some of the voice acting is kind of goofy, but it goes with the charater's personality.

For example, Beat (the anoying little kid) seems like he'd start to piss you off, but he doesn't. Its just funny when he talks because you think about punting him, and you start laughing

Besides you can change it to jappenese. Also the combat is impresive, beautiful, unique, brillant, challenging, and addictive. Its awesome if you ever liked a JRPG you will love this

Hmm...A musically inspired game by the music part of tri-ace....composed by one of my favorite composers....

...This is a must buy for me.

I played through an hour and a half of it last night.

It's fantastic.

All I could do is smile at everything in the game. I don't ever remember smiling that much since I went to Disney Land as a wee child. It's just that awesome.

The music, art style, characters, gameplay - it's everything I could have asked for from a JRPG.

The story is also incredibly touching. A certain scene with Polka almost brought me to tears. Also, Beat's just so damn awesome.

One of the shortest JRPGs I've ever played, however the Piano music is great, and the ending something worth getting too. If you need to save some cash, I'd say rent it.

I played the game on the 360 and i got to say, this game clearly isnt for everyone. It annoyed me to no end but we have our opinions on the game.

I'm not saying im not going to pick it up, itll just have to wait until the price lowers. If anything, all of that content is nothing more than an extra $10 addon, making it worth $39.99 instead of $29.99

I have this game for the 360 and honestly, I am planning on buying the port to the ps3. This game is so awsome I cried at the ending. If you don't like the voices, you can change them Japenese BTW.

Why must all games contain "manly" characters? I don't get why a games looks would make it "girly." Viva pinata looks like a kiddie game yet it's awesome. I doubt LBP looks like a super awesome manly game but it's fun.
