    I so want this game so damm badly! Its not getting a European release as far as I know. So I may have to get some cash together and get a chipped PS2 and get it imported from Ebay.

    Misleading Game title ( If you studied English History )
    Isnt that good from what Ive seen from reviews. I probably wont bother Importing it. ( Typical it never arrived on the EU shores. Typical )

    It got terrible reviews. If you like your women characters with huge....and your guy characters looking like drags, then this game is for you. But the battle system, I hear, is terrible.

    I havent seen terrible reviews of the game, just average ones, mainly 6's and 7's.

    Well, I read some pretty terrible ones. After finding out that that white haired sword person was a guy, the game creeped me out.

    I've been playing through it. Terrible, terrible. I do not think I want to finish it.

    The gameplay is more monotonous than most monotonous games I have encountered lately... But, from what I hear, the game is essentially an afternoon art project from a Korean game studio. The character designs are definately not my thing... All the stuff about giant breasts/monstrously apparent nipples are absolutely true. But since this entire game seems to be a vehicle for the artwork, how much like like the boobage/drag-ish males will make most of the difference.

    Exactly. Finding out that the main hero dude was a guy was a turn off. I don't even want to touch the game now. And I agree, the artwork isn't great...at least I don't like it.

    I love the artist, Hyung-taekim I believe, but from what Im reading, Im glad I have missed out. I did think the lead guy was a woman when I first saw the images.

    The games art style is what got me interested in it. But when i learned the main character was a HE i also did a double take... :mog:

    The lukewarm reviews of 6's and 7's also didnt do much to sway me in the games favor.

    Yes yes yes! He's spectacular. Drew my avatar. ;D

    But yeah, the game isn't all that great. I haven't finished it, but it's pretty standard, and doesn't really try to break out of any mold. It's just pretty.

    I've only seen the first twelve or so hours, but I really loved it. When I get some money together it's one of the first things I'm getting, import tax be damned.

    The art's neither here nor there IMO - the boobs are a bit irritating, but I have no problem with the feminine looking guys. The only really big problem I had with it was the voice acting, but I heard that was due to an unfortunately-timed voice actors strike, so they had to use amateurs (And I mean amateurs.)

    However, I can say nothing but good things about the fighting system. Frankly, it's brillaint. Not revolutionary, but it has enough nice new ideas to be worth it, and combine that with the generally excellent solidity of the system, and you've got a game worth playing.

    In my opinion. I've not seen any terrible reviews, I should say.

    >>> I really like the artwork and character design, and I can stand a monotonous game play as long the game has a decent story..
    Femenine looking guys and giant breasts are the norm in the game industry specially in RPGs, I dont know why people is so fussed up about this..
    >> The black orb glitters ominously... but nothing happens..

    Yeah, but when you think the lead he is a she, then it gets weird. I didn't think Sephiroth was a chick even if he sorta looked like one, and the same goes for Kuja. And the nipples popping out look like they are boltz on a steel gurder. Thats weird, gross, and freaky. Its just me though...

    Yeah but the main male character has pants that show off half his upper thighs and hes wearing a g-string for Odins sake!

    That goes a lot further than Alucard in Castlevania or Sephiroth in FF 7.
