Amazing story and fun yet quick side-quests. I see others complain about the repetitive nature of the game and thats a valid complaint but I had a lot of fun with it myself and what you think of the gameplay in the long run will be different from person to person. All the endings are great and the third one exclusive to new game plus is awesome. I'd definitely recommend it to someone who wants a gateway into Fate but isn't ready to read 100 hours of a visual novel. The main flaw is that all the content should have been available through the first play-through. But it does start you back at chapter 2 and allows you to fast forward through scenes or skip them entirely and will give you a warning if a scene will have new text exclusive to new game plus. Word of warning do not do 3 play-throughs of this, save before you do the 1 on 1 fight at the end of chapter 5 and reload it so you can get both the 2nd and 3rd ending depending on what you got for your first one.

Although the presentation is weak it captures what a Metal Gear Solid game is. The story is amazing and I loved all the characters. By being a sequel to just Metal Gear everything I've known as a MGS fan was flipped upside down and it told an amazing and grounded story that I could only wish we got a continuation of based on the cliff hanger. Still worth the play-through.

Improved on everything Mega Man Legends attempted to do. Good side content and improved dungeons and the cast of the two previous games all together means there is never a dull moment. Trust me do the side content and buy the armor chips. Can't believe how hard the final boss is for this goofy game.
Very fun game that you can take at your own pace with a fun plot and cast like Mega Man Legends. I like the fact that you can unlock the final boss and continue doing missions and upgrading or training the servebots if that's your thing or if you just want more gameplay which it is definitely more varied than MML. Don't feel you need to play MML as this game carries itself without any drawback.

Fun story with a lot of charm with an interesting set up for its sequel at the end. Art style does wonders for it and helps carry you through the initial learning curve of its quite awful controls. If you're not a fan of the traditional Mega Man formula both in story and gameplay this is a great entry to play.

Very good stories given that the story told changes depending on the ending. Great gameplay with fun weapons to collect and level up. Honestly it was a game that was just really fun for me where plot almost became secondary. Only issues would be the useless right stick camera, wonky lock on, and the projectile enemies which can be annoying to deal with.

"A delayed game is eventually good. A bad game will sell 10 million copies in 3 days" - Shigeru Miyamoto.
As a starter for this review i must preface that no Pokemon game without natdex would get more than a 2.5 from me.
That being said this game is comedic with how mediocre/bad it is in every aspect. Story is 3 different ones that felt under cooked and the fourth final story that ties them together does it in a really lazy way. Gameplay is just Pokemon which has mostly been stagnant for the past near decade since X and Y. Graphics are also terrible not even counting the constant visual glitches, without any actual style besides being cartoony/anime which is given no visual flair.
Saving the obvious talk about bugs, glitches, and performance issues last yes the game has many of them and in all honesty if it wasn't for the fact that it looked like garbage I probably would have not paid it any attention due to lack of natdex. I don't think i ever had a consistent frame rate the entire time I played the game, every where i went had many visual bugs, and about every 3 hours I'd restart the game so that it would run smoother again (smoother not smoothly big difference).
Now for positives in concept this could have been interesting, the open world can be fun to traverse but its not very interesting, The gameplay is fun for the basic Pokemon formula but it is again stagnant, And unintentionally was a great experience for me and my friend who isn't even into Pokemon as it constantly gave us a good laugh with how bad it is.
I won't give any pity points for it due to it being the largest media franchise, plenty of money could have been poured into this. Fans should only demand more and more but more often settle for less and less which is a shame really.

Terrible series until they tried something new on PS2.
An easier fighting game that is ugly as sin with controls that feel like they were designed by someone who sucked and seethed about Street Fighter 2. The fact Killer Instinct and Soul Edge were out and people still try and tell me this game is good when it looks worse and plays worse than both those games is baffling. It shows how dumb westerners will buy anything as long as it has epic gore and boobs.
