    Now, rereleased and unmodified from its original gameplay, it is beyond archaic and outdated.

    It brings nothing new but the    This title is not perfect but it isnt what some people describe, trying to make it appear as a bad game.
    It brings nothing new but the scenario at the end isnt like anything you've seen in other games of the era.
    If you liked games like the Lunar series or the classic ffs, there are chances you like it.
    It doesn't deserve a 10 but as there are trolls giving zeros...    … Full Review »
