All right, so chances are any information that could be learned about this game on this site has already been learned, but just in case there are a few noobs out there that need an introduction, Rogue Galaxy is pretty good.
Here's my story: When I first heard the name Rogue Galaxy, I mistook it for a Star Wars story. Don't get me wrong, I love Star Wars, I'm just not too fond of the games. Eventually, I saw it for rent at my local video-hut . . . but it was already rented. From then on, my interest kept growing because every time I came in, it was gone. Finally, about a month and a half later (bastards), it was there and I rented it for the first time.
At first, I couldn't really get used to the targeting system (turn-based games make instinct irrelevant), and I died within the first 30 seconds. After sitting through the opening movie a second time, I decided to be a little more cautious, running away and healing and then saving right after the battle.
I was so enthused, I ran over to Best Buy to pick up a Strategy Guide. I wish I could've bought the game as well, but the guide was way cheaper.
My favorite feature in the game is the Challenge battles that add special requirements for defeating your enemies in order to gain special items.
Right about now, I'm still obsessed with owning this game, in both uses of the term. As a writer, I find much of the story to be pretty inspiring. I no more than half-way through right now, but just looking through the strategy guide makes me eager to take on Seed. I just wish he would have been included in the Villain Tournament . . .
