The reviews for this game are all over the place. I'm interested in this game but I just can't pull the trigger on a purchase. I almost bought it before ending up with the stylish but disappointing Suda 51 game, Shadows of the Damned. You're making me lean towards a buy, though......

Fun fact: For a long time after, I thought this game was call "Cel Shaddia" based on the wonky box art logo!

d21lewis, listen man, you should never listen to reviews, or watch any, you will enjoy your games much more that way, trust me on this.

the moment i did this, is really the moment i REALLY apprieciated all the games i buy, and to me, unlike most people think, the japanese industry haven't "died" its the gamers that are changed focusing too much on reviews, everyone suddenly became a critic,  and thinking "hey so this part is bad according to this review" "this part is good according to that review" rather than playing games for what they are, and how they're meant to be played.

Ah. the good ol' days of blackouts... it was mostly good... the other part had me miss lots of good releases...

Funnily enough, I get better WITH reading the review (if it's bad), I'm like "yeah whatever they can't enjoy games this is gonna rule".

Also, "Japan is done" is a joke in itself...
