How so?

Not much really happens, you keep trying to rescue someone, and it goes on for to long. The charachters aren't intresting either, i didn't care about any of them at all, most of them just really annoyed me.

Aww. That's disappointing. I was expecting it to be better; the trailers made it look really good.

It can't be as bad as Eternal Sonata's story line. Maybe they will add some stuff and fix many of the small details for the PS3 release.

---

I would like to think so. But there's no guarantees of course (this is SE).

Yes the story is really corny - it is what the Japanese think will apeal to the Western world - also all the story cutscenes are done terribly for a new game, all the characters move really stiffly. The story does get slightly better as the game goes on, but the best bit of the game is the fights.

The PC and PS3 versions may fix the problems with texture pop in and the bad animation in cut scenes - then it would be a good game. The 360 version is average at best, unfortunately.

I'll probably be getting it for PS3 whenever it happens, then.

You guys should check out the review I wrote on the game.

I am now convinced (if I wasn't before) that Square Enix is full of dullards who have their heads up their bums. http://blog.wired.com/games/2009/03/gdc-...st-re.html

It is quite shocking, especially since Japanese PS3 users are still heavily craving this game.

The PC version is apparently awful as well though, which is just terrible considering the increased hardware specs available.
