Folklore has some grand ambitions. Not satisfied with delivering a mildly diverting plaything, the hope of most other games, it looks to ask questions about life after death. If you knew that there was life beyond the grave, how would that effect your day to day life here and now?
These are the issues that Game Republic brings to the gamer, no mean feat. They are to be commended for at least attempting to walk the tightrope between engaging ethical dilemmas whilst maintaining the fun of the game proper.
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.
These JRPGs stand up on their own.
Could you get rich by investing in PS3 games? Almost definitely not. Can you make a few bucks by flipping PS3 games over the years? Yeah, sure! It wouldn’t even be that difficult. But let’s face it: Once these games are in your collection, you’re probably keeping them forever.
After a game's multiple generations old, and can't be had new at a reasonable price, that's when I see nothing wrong with emulation.
What's the point of paying someone scalper prices when the dev/publisher isn't even benefiting from it?
I paid $30 for SH Downpour on PS3 now it's around $70-$85 Canadian Lolipop Chainsaw I paid $15 and it has really gone up in price. I wonder if Transformers War and Fall of Cybertron will go up in price two of the best Transformers games every made.
Ever since Sony announced that they would shut down PS3 store these prices have skyrocketed and even though Sony backtracked now most gamers realize that it's a matter of time before the PlayStation 3 store is shut down. If you want these games get them while you can even if digital because once that story shut down the physical prices will just go crazy high we saw that already
And many of these games did not sell like crazy amounts so they are limited number of copies available for sale at any given time
"So far we haven't had very much to say negatively about the game. However, a real low point is the frequency and duration of each loading screen. As mentioned above, the environments are impressive and gorgeous to look at; it seems we pay a price for this by load times that really make you wonder if something has gone wrong. It's a shame as the game has worked so hard to pull you into the story and the constant staccato progress though a level means this illusion is regularly shattered."
=64%?!
If only they had better un-story-book cutscenes maybe it would have been better?
"attempting to walk the tightrope between engaging ethical dilemmas whilst maintaining the fun of the game proper."
Great Graphics good story, and gameplay. It seems some reviewers haven't gotten the concept that the book cutscenes are to keep a certain type of feel. I have't finished Keats portion of the story but its mostly positive remarks from me.
