A nice play X Xone for an hour before bed every night type game.

I started Project X Zone for the Capcom franchises as, I was only familiar with 1 or 2 of the franchises from Bandai or Sega. While the franchises represented in Capcom are some of my favorites, i do that there is an incredibly clear bias towards the Bandai characters. It probably isn't helped by the fact this was developed in-house at Bandai but that's what you get I suppose.

X Zone has very addicting gameplay and phenomenal sprite work. An incredible game for playing while having a podcast on in the background. For the first 20 chapters, it was super exciting to predict which character would be introduced and join the party as you don't get too much of one company's characters in a row. It is unfortunate that after chapter 20, the game sort of stagnates in awful filler. The chapters just seem to get longer and longer for the sole reason that, rather than bring actual challenge, they simply throw more and more enemies at you with bigger and bigger health bars. To say this is one of the games with the worst spongy enemies would be an understatement. Nevertheless, I can't say that the game didn't serve its purpose. I'm looking forward to playing the second one, as they seem to have comprised a roster made solely for me.
