Eternal Sonata was ok. But the cities were born, repetative monters there wasnt enough variety, chracteres were decent, the story was not that good, and the game was just to linear.but it was a good first try for tri-crescendo

I bought it :)

Story was a little lame but the gameplay /art-style is awesome. Especially the Encore mode.

To be honest, I can't even remember the story and I beat it not too long ago. Obviously didn't make an impression. I too thought that the art style and gameplay were awesome.

What is Encore mode?

The majority of Wii games sell poorly, but we know why, because the majority of Wii games are rubbish.

When it debuts on the PS3 next year, I'll be picking it up. It's one of the RPGs I'm looking forward to in 2008 along with Disgaea 3, The Last Remnant, Valkyrie of the Battlefield and White Knight Story

What is Encore mode?

Encore mode is basically a "New Game +". I'm pretty sure it unlocks just by beating the game.

All enemies have double HP and their attack power / defenseis raised by 50%. Makes things a hell of a lot harder.

Also unlocks the teleporter much earlier so you can revisit towns and get new sidequests and items including the game's best weapon...i think it's called Silver Sword??? I don't remember exactly but it's wayyyy overpowered.

Sweet, thanks for the info! That sounds pretty sweet. Once I beat the game, I just went on to a different game. Once I finish the Orange Box, CoD4, and my second Mass Effect playthrough, I'll have to go back and check that out.

Yup, gonna be a good year for jRPG fans :)

Lost Odyssey, Cry On, and Infinite Undiscovery should be good too.

Sadly, every jRPG I'm looking forward to seems destined to be a commercial flop :(

The majority of my fellow North American's seem to have extremely poor taste...:evil:

Yea, it took some serious balls (can I say balls?) to do what Mistwalker did...

Hopefully N.American's will wise-up and make jRPG's the new craze in '08.

I mean...they have to get tired of FPS / GTA-clones eventually...right? :?
