    What Full Metal Alchemist lacks in visual punch, visa vie simplistic geometry and slightly stiff animation, it more than makes up for in level design, story, and especially technique. [Jan 2005, p.69]

    If this game had managed to seriously advance the overarching plot of Fullmetal Alchemist, this would have been a great romp that would engage newcomers in addition to pleasing fans of the show. As is, this game certainly has the engine to be fun, but didn’t quite live up to its potential.

    Although there is a button that lets you adjust the camera angle, it tended not to cooperate.

    Considero a la primera adaptación de Fullmetal Alchemist la serie que me salvo, no soy muy dado a ver anime pero este me maravillo, eso fue en el 2010, ya conocía de la existencia de esta serie al igual que la de este juego. Cuando termine la serie, quería jugar a los juegos de la misma, concretamente las entregas de ps2 y gracias a medios que no voy a comentar al fin he podido pasarme el primero de estos.
