Taken as a whole, Infinite Undiscovery's a game with a bit of an identity crisis. When it's acting like a run-of-the-mill JRPG, it feels clichéd, but reasonably enjoyable. When it tries to be innovative, however, its unsatisfying combat, superfluous subsystems and wasted ensemble cast make the whole experience feel half-hearted. Like its hero Capell, the game's caught between sticking to what it knows and the temptation to go out and be a real revolutionary. Unfortunately, Infinite Undiscovery never really figures itself out, leaving it an inconsistent game that's awkward and shallow, but still intriguing. Just like its nonsensical name.
You'll love:
- Great art style overall
- Intriguing story and universe
- Main character and his squeeze are actually likable
You'll hate:
- Choppy, unfun combat
- Trying to block any attack and inevitably failing
- Uneven graphics
The gaming community lately makes jokes about companies making games that look like "PS3" or "PS2" games. While this is such a nasty dig, there may be some truth to this in the case of tri-Ace.
Sad really. I used to love these guys but man...they just aren't what they used to be.
The Cod games have been using an engine built in the mid 90s. Nothing wrong with using an old engine if they update it. Bioshock used UE2 and looked better than most UE3 games. Arkham knight used UE3 and looked better than most UE4 games.
Sh it does suck but I enjoyed star ocean 6 the most out of any game last year. I thought it was solid af start to finish. My favorite game that year.
I'd love for Sony to get ahold of them.
To late to edit but I just wanted to add not every game that comes out needs to push a consoles boundaries. Star ocean 6 looked fairly good to me.
Yeah. They definitely squeezed every drop out of that engine for SO6. It was a fun game
I assume you are talking about "Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness" which I do have and am still playing. IMHO it is a good game but for some reason I still prefer "Star Ocean: The Last Hope" that I played on my PS3.
As a side note I have "Star Ocean: Till the End of Time" (PS2 version) which I played on my first gen PS3 but unfortunatly the Australian version of the PS3 did not have full backwards capability like the US version did. I got so far in the game and hit a bug (advancement to a new area between two mountains) that prevented further play.
During the Inside Xbox live stream today, developers from the backwards compatibility team announced that the program would sadly be coming to a close.
What a good run. Assuming every og xbox, 360, and One title will be available on Scarlett. Will make next gen transition easy. Hats off!!
As long as they continue adding more BC once the Scarlett comes out.
The current game selection on Game Pass is impressive, but it’s still missing a handful of big games.Here are the 10 most dumbfounding omissions from Game Pass.
Still probably get this game. But SE is a has been, they need to stick to the PS2 because they can't develope for sh*t on next-gen systems. I'm hearing about framerate problems and that is just unforgivable as the gen moves on to it's third year.
Square/Tri-Ace you are just about dead to me.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahah
go cry xbots hahahahahahahaha
the game is a FLop,so much for the 3fixme KING Of RPG,
King of flops
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah ahahahahahahahahahahaha
I guess 7/10 is the consensus.....another *decent* JRPG from square
neeeeeeeoooooowwwww-boom! ouchies
And I was looking forward to this game.
*pats PS3* White Knight Chronicles should be awesome.
Lol, @ GiantEnemyCrab cussing at Square. You guys certainly weren't cussing when they announced FFXIII for the 360.
