Yeah alright.
I was waiting for this for AGES, ight?
and I was expecting a game just as fun, funny, and loveable as the first one.
That is NOT what I got from this.
Emil, makes Lloyd look like the best person in the world.
Which he still is, I love Lloyd!
Marta, is trying too hard.
And Richter is probably the most annoying "serious" character ever.
Next to VAN from Tales of the Abyss.
Frankly, the story started off MUCH too slowly and the plot stays away from the original Tales of Symphonia SO MUCH.
I didn't expect it to be exactly the same of course, but they even changed the Tech to ARTES
WHAT IS THIS!?
I didn't really like it, but my love for Tales of will keep me playing.
For now at least.

for starters, i don't disagree with anyone else's opinion of this game. you can't disagree with an opinion, you can only have one of your own.

i had fun with this game from the minute i put it in this morning until the end-credits rolled this afternoon. sure, it was frustrating at points, but i don't play video games to just have a constant uninterupted story from start-to-finish. then it becomes nothing more than a book or a movie. i play video games to be challenged and to be entertained, and this game did the trick. it just didn't do it the way i expected it to, or for nearly as long as i expected it to.

what did i expect exactly? well, to be honest, i expected a "modern" day assassin's creed, so-to-speak. assassin's creed came out nearly a year ago, just two days from the ... Read More

Well, this game has awful graphics. They look like Pacman! Awful. Very outdated. And the set list has too much oldies crap like Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac, Steve Miller Band, etc... However, it does have some awesome bands like Disturbed, System Of A Down, Linkin Park and Paramore. I can't believe they have some old Metallica sons on it! They should've included "Some Kind Of Monster" from St. Anger instead. Any why no Limp Bizkit?!

This is the best Castlevania since Aria Of Sorrow. It's not nearly as hard as people are making it out to be but if this is the case for you there is a room in the Skeleton Caves with a ton of skeletons that charge you and by hacking them for an hour you can increase ten levels and from there on out the game is pretty easy.

It is probably the most diverse Castlevania. It has various areas outside of the usual castle like Portrait Of Ruin but it also has a good sized castle as well as a town. I hope they continue with that theme and add more town in future releases.

The only annoying thing about the game is having several weapons that are nearly identical - except that one hurts one kind of enemy and the other doesn't. That system doesn't make the game for fun and simply adds an element of ... Read More

I was really excited about getting the game because of the integration of the balance board, and it's definitely lived up to my expectations.

The wii remote and the board work great together and coupled with the onscreen control aids learning how to do different tricks is a snap. The graphics for the game are suprisingly good for the wii, because I have to admit I was half expecting a mii to go flying down the slopes with me.

Finally the best part of the game has to be the unexpected work out you get. I've been snowboarding before and while I'm nowhere near as sore as I was from doing that, my legs know they're not just walking to the fridge.

It's nice to see nintendo coming out with more games for the balance board and this one is a definite must.

I just got the ps3 and the first game I bought it metal gear 4, of course it is 3rd person view. It has 5 levels of difficulty, I recommend you to star in level 1 if you have never played it before. If you played the game in ps2 you have to move up to ps3, it is more fun and the images are neater. I played for almost 2 days and still halfway into the game. It is long but never get tired of it, you meet different people, missions, weapons..heat seeking missiles, grenade launcher, etc. You'll like it.

Truly the greatest piece of software for the Nintendo DS, this is an amazing package. As a user of professional-grade software owner of numerous vintage synthesizers, I was actually shocked at how much they managed to cram into a DS cart, down to the clever effects routing, the fact that each of the four drum voices is completely editable using the same synthesizer engine used for the melodic parts when they could have just crammed in a few PCM samples...truly an impressive package. What's shocking is how intuitive and downright fun it is to use - I made three complete songs in about an hour and a half, including building all sounds from scratch. This is truly an exceptional release. It makes me long for touch-screen PC's with professional recording and synth software written to be this "playable!"

The one downside, ... Read More

I am both Frustrated and Disapointed in GH WT. I was excited to receive it and as a vetran of the RB series, I wanted to see how this game played out. I mainly play the drums, so this is basically all I will discuss.

On RB1 and RB2, I'm normally in the 95-100% on the majority of songs on Hard and am in the 85-90 range on half the songs on Expert. I've downloaded all but 15 songs as well so I have a large list. With that said, I was frustrated to see that I was not even able to get any streaks going or finish a song on medium with over 85%. So I re-calibrated, and still wasn't able to streak anything together. So what is the reason, after looking at it more closely, my Symbol's are not registering every hit. I'd say on avg 1 out of every 7-10 hits on the symbol registers with the game.

So I went to the ... Read More
