 Rating:  - Suikoden IV, Prepare to Spend a Lot of Time SailingI guess it's understood that when in an area surrounded by water you will be sailing, a lot, but this is a video game so it would have been reasonable to perhaps make the islands closer just so you don't have to spend hours trying to get from one point to the next. It's not like you'll have time to really enjoy sailing too because every 15 seconds you have another fight on the ocean. The story is relatively predictable and while it starts off well enough (which I won't spoil) I think ... Read More Rating:  - Sail by the stars and you may just sink.To me, a disappointment in the Suikoden series. It seemed so promising, and though much of the game can be very entertaining, it is definitely a game that will need patience to beat. Here's my break down: Gameplay: 6/10 The gameplay is probably what you would expect for most RPG's.... except for one small little detail. You spend most of your time traveling on a large ship out on the ocean. The problem with this... when you're moving, it gives you no "sense" of actually getting ... Read More Rating:  - Hated itThe story was predicable and stupid. You also have the "forced to answer one answer when there's two available option" haunts this game. One question is "Do you want to use the rune?" You can choose yes or no. If you choose no, the game pauses for a couple of seconds, then the question returns - with the exact same answers! So you HAVE TO choose Yes. Why even bother making you be able to choose if No has no effect?! The battle system was awful. A slooooow ... Read More Rating: - Not fantastic, but not bad either.Well, this is definitely a Suikoden game. Mechanically, it's got everything it's supposed to have, 108 stars, recruitment binges, battles, random fights, everything you've grown to expect from the franchise. Problem is, it doesn't offer much we haven't already seen. Yes, you can make your own accessories, and having three battle groups at one time on your base is pretty darned nifty, but that's about it. There's just not much new going on here. I won't go into too much more detail ... Read More Rating: - Not nearly as bad as you've heardWell, after having preordered it waAAaAAaaayy back in December '04, I finally got around to playing the fourth installment of the Suikoden series. Worry not, for this review is spoiler-free. One of the reasons I hadn't played it until just recently (September '05?)was because of the overall negativity of the reviews I'd read allll over the internet. I must say, reading some of 'em you'd swear you'd be inserting a steaming pile of $%*$# into your PS2. Happily, I've found the game isn't THAT bad. ... Read More |
