Shadow Hearts: From The New World

Shadow Hearts: From The New World

Operating System: Playstation 2
Website: JP Website , Official Website
Rating: 2.5/5
Comments: I find this game pretty tragic to play. Sure the dialogue is amusing (if you like B-grade movies) and the cutscenes have beautiful graphics but the controls! When you fight, there is this little time gauge that comes up with sections coloured. You have to make sure to hit "x" when it's on a coloured section or the whole damn attack fails. You also need to do this before you can haggle shop prices, which they didn't even warn me about and I missed it and had to pay 10% MORE! I find it difficult to get a good flow in the fight sequences and that makes this game difficult to master for me. I just found myself getting frustrated very quickly each time I play it. Plus the music is boring as shit... and catchy. It has a very old school flavour, kinda like 90's music, which is odd because it's a fairly recent game.
