PS3 - Enchanted Arms Review

"A turn-based RPG hits the PS3 -- pizza monster included!

However, it's clear that Enchanted Arms isn't the greatest RPG in the world -- hell, it might not even be that good of an RPG, period -- but it does bring traditional turn-based combat and a vast collection of colorful characters to the PS3."

6.5 / 10

It wasn't too good on the 360, and with no online it's slightly worse on the PS3, but at least hardcore RPG fans have something to tide them over until the bigger games hit.

3 - Is this 50gig storage or more devel time?

How you noticed that on most of the ports from 360 to PS3 the PS3 has added content. Oblivion includes expansion pack, F.E.A.R. has a extra level and a new weapon, and this one has more characters. Could be either one but whatever it is it give you an extra reason to pick it up on the 3.

3.1 - Well....

Its not a great game on either system, but if you're going to split hairs don't forget the fact that it released about 8 mo. ago for the 360....yet it recieved a lower overall score and even scored lower in the graphics dept. on the PS3(6.5) than the 360(7.5) -yeah I fully understand that it was reviewed by two different guys from IGN but the PS3 version review of the graphics were referred to as looking close to PS2 graphics at times, -how that translates to looking or being better on the PS3 in your mind I don't know. In fact if you actually read the review he had this to say:

"Without those online features, the shortcomings that were forgiven on the 360 are all the more glaring on the PS3."

-That at least seems to suggest that its a better overall experience on the 360...personally I wouldn't buy it on either platform but thats just my opinion.

4 - Dont forget!

You can make Atsumi dance away to generate EX points - WITH the sixaxis motionsening! (WTF happened? I mean, Hello-ooo)

You can shake the sixaxis to boost when delivering an EX attack too. Woohoo. :)

All in all a great story so far and nice chars as said in the review (25+ hrs in to it).

Well, I actually like this game. The Yuki girl is funny as hell. If you get to play it, you'll know what I meant. The only down side for me about this game is, I hate it when all the bad guys keep poping up at you out of nowhere all the time. I had fun collecting all those 1000 points. To me, it's a really good game.

7 - Response to #3

The reason developers have have to add a little content to the PS3 versions of the games you mentioned is to provide incentive to buy an "old" game thats already been out on the 360 for months. It's too bad that PS3 gamers will miss out on the online content for this game though. I thought the characters in the game were entertaining and the story decent, but the gameplay and game world were mediocre and dated.

8 - It was a good filler

If you like RPG's like me then this is a must for the collection. I have it for 360 and played the heck out of it. Voice acting is not great, in fact, rather annoying at times. The grid based battle is awesome and the goloms you collect are many and kind of fun, but in the end I just used the humans... but I guess until you get them all the golems are nice.

In response to #1... Online play are you serious!?! On 360 your lucky and I mean really really really lucky to see someone online with this game to play, so for PS3 version not to have online in this is a God Send! Totally not needed for the title and should never have been thought of.

While I've never played the game, and was merely quoting IGN... the fact that on the 360 the OPTION is there for extended gameplay is a good thing, I think. More bang for your buck is always good.
