Hello all, if you're reading this, it means I have blogged:P.........Anyway, I decided to share with you all one of my most favorite games so without ado, here it is:
Rogue Galaxy starts with a boy named Jaster Rogue who dreams of adventures in outer space. One day after returning home complaining of the lack of rations he gets from Longardian soldiers, the entire town is beset by beasts having dropped from an even larger one. Going out to face them, he meets a mysterious who leaves him a sword and other items before leaving. While this is happening, a robot named Steve and a man named Simon are searching for the legendary hunter "Desert Claw," believing that Jaster is that person because of the sword he was given by the mysterious man. With their help, he defeats the giant monster running amok on his home planet Rosa and agrees to join their crew, not bothering to tell them the truth about who he really is, but as the story progresses, the thingsJaster learns about himself will shock not only him, but the entire Dorgenark crew.
Like most(Or all) action/rpgs, Rogue Galaxy uses a real time battle system and standard hack and slash. One of the more interesting features of the game is weapon synthesizing, take two weapons and combine them to form an even stronger weapon. But there is a catch: The thing that does synthesize weapons wants them seasoned enough as in you battled with them enough, they have to be the same rank or close to the same rank and the weapons have to belong to one person, you can't Jaster's weapons with someone else. Another feature is the revelation board, gather up certain materials and place in designated areas to unlock new abilities and attacks, some with devastating powers. True to its roots, there are plenty of dungeon like areas to explore, but the true test lies in the Ghost Ship, accessible only you defeat the final boss, complete and you can take on the 100 floor Ghost Ship: Extreme with beasts that will tear you apart. However, the prize I got for completing the Ghost Ship: Extreme almost drove me to sell the game:lol:
The graphics for this game are incredible, it has a unique cel-shaded look with colors that just jump out at you. I can't explain by just telling you, you'll have to see to believe. The music for this well above average, same can be said for the voicework, trust me, you can't go wrong when Steve Blum voices one of the main characters. A truly epic and memorable adventure. 9.5/10
In other news, I changed my icon to Gin Toki from the GinTama series. Seriously, watch the anime....it...is FUNNY!!:lol:
While going through some of my PS2 games I stumbled onto one I forgot I had: Devil May Cry....had it for 2 years and forgot about it....odd ain't it? Anyway, I started playing it this morning and felt as if I had found a piece of my soul:lol: Ok so I'm exaggerating a bit, but in layman's terms......its a blast.
Animes I been watching-Hidamari Sketch, Neo Angelique-Abyss, Kekkaishi, Golgo 13, Heck Girl(Not actual title but had to edit it....), and Blue Drop. I've been watching more, but I'm lazy to try to remember. I'll go more in depth on this matter in a later blog.
See ya.
