For 10$ ,, it's worth just as a collectible for potter head. For someone who is not used to playing game this was good , the videos and they story progress similar to movie.

The voice acting and dialog were pretty bad in this game and while the story wasn't the greatest, if you can look past all that, the gameplay was a lot of fun and there was a lot of extras to do. Without using a guide I managed 14 achievements on my first time through. It's something I will go back to in the future and try to complete in full.

I am what you call a casual gamer. I used to be really into video games, but life and (the lack of) time came into play and that's how I became casual. Back to the game. The game itself is pretty awesome if you've never played Ratchet and Clank before. I never played Ratchet and Clank before playing this game. I have to say that the game play is awesome and the difficulty level feels just right for about 90% of the game. I really like the repeat factor and how you can return and explore areas that you have previously beaten.

Overall, I say that this game is a good game for the casual gamer or for the regular average gamer who just wants to have fun without having to worry about how long it will take to beat the game or question if it's worth the price for enjoyment. It's definitely worth the price!

I used to watch my uncle play resident evil games when I was a little kid and I didn't even know they had games for the 3ds so I was very excited when i found this. I personally found the game to be really fun. I'm not very good at video games at all I'm a casual gamer so I found this challenging but i was able to finish the entire game which was so exciting for me. The story element in the game was great it was really enjoyable and interesting.

Don't compare it to monster hunter, its not a monster hunter. And don't say its too easy. It starts easy, but the post game is wicked difficult. It's a standalone of it's own that is unique, maybe not perfect, but certainly an enjoyable play throughout.

I picked this up the other day to play casually. I wasn't prepared for the hardcore-RPG point-based item system. If you love those kind of games, where you "level up" rifles (don't ask me how that works. How can two rifles of the same type be different in damage?) you'll like it, but if you're looking for a more tactical/realistic shooter it will be strange to you. Not sure how bad guys with a pistol can always kill me with a few shots even if I unload several magazines on them.

The game looks great, has a compelling story line and the campaign has been given lots of attention. All things I enjoy. Just approach it with patience and be prepared to grind for a while to get the guns you really want.

I would recommend this game if you go in having the right expectations.

I liked it.  Simple managing game and usually you can beat your opponents.  Not a lot of story though and for hardcore gamers not much of a challenge.

A very good game, an amazing story, I believe some just don't like this different style of gameplay but that doesn't mean it is bad or it isn't fun, it's just less interactive and more cinematic, like interacting with a movie so that you can see different things and different parts of a whole story.  That ain't bad either, if you like more interactive gameplay for hours, like Skyrim or other games with many hours don't play this game.  Graphics are superb, some of the best (if not the best) of the graphics I saw on PS3 or other current gen game.

I'd rate it a 4 as, in my opinion, it should had a bit more of gameplay to be great, but this doesn't mean the game is bad or just one more of a kind.

First off, Eternal Sonata is not for everyone. On a personal not, I have enjoyed this game very much. It's a standard RPG where you have a party, you travel through a mystical world in non-random encounters and boss battles will test your ability. That being said, the way it is put together might not be very attractive for everyone.

The animation style makes the cutscenes seem a little bit slow. Some of them can drag on for quite a while, I remember one of them went on for longer than 10 minutes. If you play games because of the story, this is ok, but if you like to be moving at 1000mph while playing, these scenes are a bummer.

Where the game really shines is the battle system. Instead of just leveling up your characters, you level up your party as well. As your party levels up, the dynamics of battle changes as you have more attacks and techniques at your disposal but less time to plan. This makes sure that the battles stay fresh throughout the game.

I personally liked the fact that every character was linked to a certain musical style or item. I know some music snobs were offended by this, but I personally feel like it makes for a great atmosphere.

In closing, if you're an RPG fan, it's worth your time.

It's the first musou game I actually enjoyed.

Granted, the last time I played one was probably Dynasty Warriors 3, and the franchise has seemingly advanced quite a bit since then. Room-clearing supers, team-up attacks, and all that have added to the "run to place, fight until there is no more fighting" formula that makes up most of this brawler series. Special achievements and requirements add a little more focus and things to do, as well as reasons to grind stages over and over to unlock one more thing. And there's always more to unlock and grind for.

The special superpowers and weapons of the One Piece cast are a great boon to the rest of this game, since their variety forced the devs to make a lot of different and unique effects. Some are better at clearing areas, some chain their attacks in interesting ways, others launch themselves around the battlefield - there's a lot of different playstyles to unlock. However, what you're doing with them most of the time - blowing away droves of enemies that present little threat - doesn't really change from character to character. Kicking things up to hard or facing a stage you're underleveled for is about the only time you might find too much difficulty outside of the challenges. Mind, losing a stage is really discouraged, as you lose everything but the XP gained - and given a stage can take a good 45 minutes to complete, that can can be really disheartening.

If you're not already into One Piece, though, this is not the place to start. The story is extremely abbreviated from that of the manga or anime, and leaves much unexplained under the presumption that players will already be familiar with the series. And, to be fair, compressing 15 years of manga continuity into a single game is a herculean task, and so they've aimed for a "greatest hits" sort of summary. It's appreciated that they use new 3d cutscenes rather than just cut-paste anime scenes, but it's still by and for the fans. Still, if you like a character, you can probably play them. If you like a story, there's probably a stage for it. It services the fans well, but likely leaves everybody else in the dust. Furthermore, it just kind of ends at the point they had in the manga at the time, so don't expect a big-wrap for the series.

The grind can be a little too heavy at times - later levels seem to presume you've taken some time to grind on the side, which isn't really welcome. Granted, replaying levels and gaining new bits is satisfying, but it shouldn't have been a necessity to pad out the game's length. There's even a big endgame series of levels for those who have maxed their characters or close enough to it, though they're mostly just remixes of existing content at higher level rather than a new story or tale.

Overall, though, it's probably the best One Piece game yet, and the flurry of blowing hundreds and thousands of enemies out of the way is very true to the series' feel. If you don't mind the rhythmic repetition of the musou games, of blowing away enemies until the climax of a super... rinse... repeat... this is absolutely a game for fans of the series. It's not deep, but it uses the wide cast and lore to create a delightfully violent playground. Though it's nothing too innovative, it is a satisfying and colorful brawler to pound your way through. If you're not into One Piece and you read this far... well, I recommend reading the manga as a goofy pirate battle comic, but this game isn't for you unless you're willing to do a little homework. (Even I had to do some catching up to do before I played some of the later levels.)

Played through the whole story campaign to completion on normal, with a smattering of levels finished on hard and side content unlocked. Was gifted the game by an online friend.

I played a little bit of this game and I can personally say, as an avid gamer, that the it isn't of the quality of say Splinter Cell or Metal Gear Solid (I only use these games as reference as they're an over the shoulder cam game, such as this one). However, it does include many things Bear does in the show. And the way you start fires, build shelters, and fish is quite remarkable. Although not as challenging as I had hoped, it is still a pleasant first game by Bear. I hope to see better games come out by him as I believe a survival game done by Discovery and Bear Grylls has the potential to be quite good. I also want to make it known that although I did play this, it wasn't purchased for myself but rather my father who is a VERY BIG Bear Grylls fan, he is collecting just about everything that has Bear Grylls on it.

Now I am almost 38, I don't have much interest playing video games. It is not uncommon for me to play just a few hours and discard (or return) the game.  This game is fun. I like the mechanics. It is not too hard or too easy. The story is intriguing enough for me to follow. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the game.

I bought this game so that I could play with my friends in anticipation for mh4u. The quests and story are pretty straight forward. Multiplayer was pretty much more of the same with an increase in difficulty and the added factors of other players helping you. There are many guides online and android apps to help you when you get stuck or don't know how to find an item. The game is grainy when compared to the wii-u version that I started playing on, and I also needed to go out and buy a circle pad pro for my 3ds because of the camera controls. Over all this is a good game though.

This is a good introductory video if you don't have a clue about the rules of craps. Watching this video once or twice will have make any beginner familiar with the good basic bets. One drawback is that there is a lot of time spent explaining all the possible die combinations of rolling each number. Another bad thing was the briefness of the video at around 45 minutes. They simply stated that the "proposition bets" are not good bets. It would have been better if they explained the casino advantage with these bets. I gave it 5 stars because blackjack is no longer my game of choice.

I have to admit I am unfortunatly a little out of touch with the Mega Man series. I have not played since the first four or so of the Mega Man X series. I loved the Mega Man X 1-3 games I thought they were great steps in the gameplay and world of Mega Man. Mega Man ZX Advent is basically the same in story as all other Mega Man games a big bad guy has plans for the world and you the player must stop them. I have only beaten the game on Beginner as Normal and Expert are much more difficult (probably my one caveat with the game) but found picking back up in gameplay intuitive and fun. The newish biometal system is cool, switching between different Mega Man styles is cool. Overall while the story is familiar the game is quite enjoyable and the visuals are great I highly recommend this game to anyone.

The game is mission based and so for me it was a unique experience. I remember the world from Final Fantasy X, so I didn't have to learn the layout. I liked the story line, it moved things along fine for me. When I realized what I did, or did not do, would change my percentage, and alter what would happen in the game etc. I didn't like it. I play a lot of role-playing games, and I put so many hours into a game to be strong and looking at every inch of the world. If I put the time in I don't like being penalized for talking to someone too soon, or too late, or the wrong answer! So, I was always going back to the guide to make sure my percentage wasn't any lower. I already new I didn't have a perfect score early on and that bugged me. I did go into this game with a certain amount of expectation since I had such an extremely fun time with Final Fantasy X.  For the most part I had a pretty good time playing it, but I would have liked to not of had the percentage element in the game.
