I loved it from first play, but it just keeps on getting better!
It is a weapons fighting game in 3-D from the series that perfected this genre.
There are new modes including a sort of RPG in Chronicles of the Sword, a story mode for each character in Tales of Souls, and great themed games for 1-player while player vs. player is fabulous.
The longer you play, the more you unlock things and it will take quite a while for most to unlock all the items. You can set language to English or Japanese and change the difficulty to a very hard level for those that can master it easily.
The create-a-character is very good. Not as much editing as a WWE game, but it is very easy and the longer you play the more options you get.
This is the game of the year for my family!
