I liked this game BUT it has MASSIVE room for improvement and i think if they made another 1 it could be a really really good game. I picked it up for 10 you really cant complaine for that try it.
 Thoroughly mindless button-mashing July 15, 2008

This is a true blue sequel to the PSP predecessors and unfortunately fails to take advantage of the much more powerful PS3 platform other than the somewhat improved graphics. For a PSP RPG it was good, on the PS3 it's weak, repetitive and vacuous.
The loot system is poor. I've seen it remarked that the items dropped my monsters are inferior to those your character can enchant/buy. And this is certainly true for at least 2 of the classes. Weapons are upgradeable with gems (with far too few slots) and change appearance but new weapons can't be picked up and equipped.
The "physics based combat" touted on the box is a over-hyped way of saying that every spell and combo attack causes the monsters to be propelled backwards and knocked down. The spell system is unbalanced with a progression of mediocre abilities and one final overpowered spell at the end of each class's line. There's no progression "tree" as such, just a linear set of spells available at set levels and a new combo each level at the beginning, of which you'll generally find yourself only using 2 or 3 and aside from cosmetic differences the 3 classes play very much the same way.
The story is very silly, not well acted and dotted with a few cut scenes either using the in-game graphics system or poorly animated cartoony video that tells you the designers were still working as if limited by the PSP's screen and performance. Puzzles, where puzzles exist, are pointed out to you with no subtlety.
It is sort of fun if you're in a mood to just mash buttons and obliterate monsters without having to think. If you want a challenge or any kind of intellectual stimulation, look elsewhere.

i bought this game and even though it started off a bit repetitive and can be hard to figure out your weapon/item inventory it's turns into a great game. lots of different baddies, magic to use, sub quests and the levels are massive to say the least. deffo worth a buy if you can find a copy at a nice price.

About 4 months ago I recieved a Playstation 3 and invited my friend over about a week later to sleep round. We rented Oblivion (thinking we were gonna play that) and then as a "back up" we rented this game. We decided to play the "back up" first so we could play Oblivion later on in the night.
Rather strangely we bacame addicted to this game after about 5 minutes. My friend had played most of these sort of games so we put it on the hardest difficulty. The levels are interesting and the enemies are very good.
A great thing about it was the special moves you could unlock by levelling up. Hovever the enemy A.I was not as good as it could be, the graphics could have been ALOT better and it is always slightly too easy (even for someone who never really plays these types of games like me). Strangely (despite finding it so good) I was never tempted to buy it. But still, it was a great laugh!
