From the review:
"Given the amount of controversy surrounding certain aspects of Nier, it has surprisingly received very little attention in the media. This latest title from Cavia and Square Enix hasn’t seen much coverage lately and it had a fairly quiet release, and as a result, many people don’t seem to know a whole lot about it. That is fairly understandable because in addition to this being a somewhat obscure release, it is also a spiritual successor to another obscure game: Drakengard for the PS2. In fact, Nier is actually based on one possible ending of Drakengard. And it didn’t help when trailers were released that didn’t really explain a whole lot about the game or what kind of game it is supposed to be. I will do my best to help give you a better idea of what to expect here."
Get ready to embark on a journey filled with monsters, magic, and overpowered haircuts, because this list features the best JRPGs on the PS3.
There wasn't that many. Thanks to the west's criticism. It was definitely lacking compared to every other ps system. Dont get me wrong there were a few good ones i know that.
Only gripe I have with Ar Tonelico 3 is that Saki is annoying as hell whether English or in Japanese. Then Saki's English voice actor became Ionasal on Ar Nosurge she was a little annoying but not as bad. Johnny Young Bosch voicing Tatsumi I thought he did a great job. And Akiko Shikata with her vocals and the music from the games just went hand and hand.
Nier and Drakengard are two series that couldn't be more different in their setting and stories, but somehow they are still linked.
Shuhei Yoshida chats with Yoko Taro, Yosuke Saito, and Keiichi Okabe about their work in the NieR series.
looks pretty good, but for some reason not good enough to buy
I agree, may have to rent this one.
a 7 sounds way to mediocre. Maybe I'll check it out when its super cheap
