Closing comments:
Valkyria Chronicles is a game that all PS3 owners should at least try out, especially considering its unique blend of genre forms. With such a robust collection of extras to backup an already impressive mission roster and gripping story, Valkyria Chronicles comes highly recommended. I strongly encourage you to try it out and see the beauty of Gallia and its people.

8.5 | Presentation The story-book concept works perfectly, but marks off for a somewhat inadequate tutorial that left us initially confused. |
|
9.0 | Graphics A triumph of artistic vision. The PS3 may have output more polys before, but has it ever looked quite this gorgeous? |
|
8.0 | Sound Big thumbs up for retaining the original Japanese voice acting. Slightly underwhelming musical score though. |
|
9.0 | Gameplay As tactically expressive an SRPG as you’re likely to find. So many options, so many decisions that matter. |
|
9.5 | Lasting Appeal An already lengthy campaign boasts huge replay value through Skirmish mode and chasing the highest rank completions. |
|
9.1 |
OVERALL (out of 10 / not an average) |
