Ya know, you can hope for the best in a JRPG and at least hope HOPE it'll be good. But this gen JRPGs have consistently been beaten down with a baseball bat. but then again they haven't changed much at all.

The Good: Building combos can be rewarding The Bad: Characters are disturbingly sexualized caricatures of young girls , Visuals are choppy and poorly animated , Music is so repetitive that it verges on painful ,Story does little to build on promising premise , Random healing system is irritating and poorly executed.

Yeah but this is by compile heart and idea factory lol people who have made some of the worst JRPGs this gen. Really the only JRPG that has a chance of getting 7 or higher is either Ar Tonelico or Disgaea 4.

Maybe on consoles.

Radiant Historia just launched for the DS and was called creative and refreshing by gamespot :) DS and PSP are doing fantastic in the jrpg department!

Who the heck is Kat Bailey? It's obvious that who ever that person is they didn't play very far into the game. The criticisms about the battle system are somewhat legit, but everything else is way off. It's pretty clear that this Kat person isn't a hardcore RPG gamer. Giving a good game like HN a 3.0 is ridiculous. I actually beat the game (didn't do all the extra stuff) and it is a good game with rewards if you play it long enough.

Bunk review is bunk. Gamespot should take the time to hire some better free-lance reviewers who actually know what the heck they're talking about if they want to be taken seriously from the JRPG community. I rated it a 7.5.

I recognize that name. She's the host of Active Time Babble podcast on 1up. She's pretty hardcore if you ask me. You should listen to her podcast and get schooled. ;)

I go to RPGFan, RPGamer and Gamecritics for JRPG reviews. GS has been a hit and miss for me in terms of JRPG reviews. They gave Nier a 5, but I loved that game. If it weren't for those three sites I mentioned, I would have never played Nier.

It's pretty obvious that she must be a casual mainstream gamer who only played the game for a few hours at best and made some premature judgements.

Were was the hype for Hyperdimension Neptunia? and far as I know not very many JRPG fans were hyping this game.

will eventually get hyperdimension later this year
