And even then, it seems like people on these forums liked the game, and it did in fact get many good reviews. I think its negative image comes from being used a whipping post by a journalist culture who would like nothing more than to see JRPG's erased from the history of video games.

So I'm not entirely sure what JKTrix is going for with their Playstation games being "hit or miss," considering Dark Cloud is such a beloved series and Dragon Quest VIII came up many times in our "Game of the Decade" thread.

It is fairly strange since Miyazaki apparently does not like video games. Now whether that's merely a preference or his opinion I don't remember. But apparently also they were supposed to work on a video game back in the day and the project crashed and burned so hard that the entire studio has had a bad taste in its mouth from games ever since. However, after the good vibes from finishing Ponyo, the Level 5 deal kinda came at the right place at the right time.

Either way, I don't know why it being a weird thing could detract from just how incredibly awesome this is!
