I bought Infinite Space last month because it's made by the guys who did Vanquish, and reviews say that the story is on par with Mass Effect and XenoBlade. From what I hear this is an incredibly under the radar type game that most people missed.
After I beat Radiant Historia, it's a toss up between Infinite Space, Golden Sun, and Pokemon Conquest for me to play. I'll likely do Conquest because Black/White 2 is only 2 months away, and want something short, but it is on my to do list, and close to the front.

Infinite Space was actually made by Nude Maker. Platinum Games helped though I'm not sure how (probably should've paid more attention to the credits :P). You should definitely play it, but it takes time to grow on you. Or at least, that's what happened for me. I know lots of people really love the game...and probably from the get-go.

I didn't think the gameplay was the best thing ever, and I thought it got repetitive (you basically use the same strategy every battle, though some battles are still harder than others), but the story was really engaging in a weird sort of way (weird because a lot of the game - particularly the second half which is WAAAAY better than the first half - had you go and try to make alliances and stuff so there weren't many plot twists or anything but I still wanted to see what happened next) that I ended up liking the game a lot despite the gameplay not being that great (a lot of people still like it a lot though. Depends on tastes, I guess.)
I don't think I'll ever play through the game again, but it's worth one playthrough for the long story.

I'll give the game the time it needs to get good. I know it's a good game, and I love space related RPG's (My diploma is in Astrophysics). Now that I know that I might have to wait to the second half for it to get really good, I'll wait.
However with Black & White 2 around the corner, Radiant Historia, and a friend wanting to borrow my DS, I don't think I'll have time for this game any time soon.
