    Everyone needs to settle down. This game is not a 10 by any stretch of the imagination. It is a port, not even a remake, and it hardly stacks up to the PC version. The game doesn't control better than the PC version with a gamepad by a long shot and while that can be blamed on Sony, I personally cannot stand playing this portable mess. Anybody saying this game deserves a 10 is lyingEveryone needs to settle down. This game is not a 10 by any stretch of the imagination. It is a port, not even a remake, and it hardly stacks up to the PC version. The game doesn't control better than the PC version with a gamepad by a long shot and while that can be blamed on Sony, I personally cannot stand playing this portable mess. Anybody saying this game deserves a 10 is lying through their teeth considering that none of the magazines were willing to give it that high of a score and would I give it a 1? Well, obviously not but this game is still a letdown. The bonuses were minimal in the premium boxing and it really doesn't do anything better than older versions except maybe have voice. This gets a flat 5 from me.… Expand

    Not sure what's so special about this game because its just a typical Japanese ARPG. I don't get all the hype but I took the plunge and its a pretty normal game. If anyone remembers Lagoon on the SNES, its kinda like that. Anyone looking to buy a used copy for about $10 less, check ebay in about a day or so.

    I am very big fan of Ys series, and the Oath of Felghana, alltough is remastered version ov much oder game from SNES with interresting story, was for me sadly a bad experience comparing to other games from the series. The game was often very annoiyng with ridicoulusly hard bosses and even normal mobs, the chaos when you are being attacked by masses of enemies was resulting in seeing game over sign over and over again. The sound was good and it played well together with high pace of the game, the story short but interresting, loading times were almost nonexistent, but difficulty level and fighting did a very bad job for this title and maked it a lot worse as it could be.    … Expand

    If you're in the market for a hard, oldschool and action-filled JRPG, look no further than the latest chapter of Ys.

    It's distracting rather than involving. [Apr 2011, p.101]
