DGR : Eternal Sonata

[D_987]

What's the point if the opening cutscene takes forever and a day?

Every cut-scene is skippable.

Great review, as always...

Eternal Sonata was an awesome game that I loved until the final moments rolled by. It turned me onto other games like it such as the Tales games (Vesperia being the one I picked up).

Quick question, is the composer the same person as the composer for Golden Sun?
The battle theme seems similar to the Golden sun music.

I'm yet to play Tales of Vesperia - its to be released at the end of the month here in the Uk - over a year after its initial release in Japan...

I'll go with Say Anything on this. You've got the content down pretty well, you just need to focus on hammering out the spelling and grammar mistakes. They drag your reviews down, man!

Other than that, it's good. I'll likely check this out.

 

[D_987]

I think you've got the information part down, but reading this, there were quite a bit of typos and an extreme amount of grammatical errors. It's also somewhat of a personal preference, but I think your opening paragraph is a bit weak. I normally don't try to start by just throwing facts at my reader. I try to take a lesson or something of common knowledge and somehow incorporate that in my review. Something like that would probably help; if you had a stronger opening, it might make the rest of your review seem better, too.

After re-reading it, your correct - I shan't bother changing it now, but thank you for the criticism.

Very nice review, I've always been curious about this game but never got around to buying it

 

[Ultress]

Great review,nothing bad and nicly detailed without being too wordy. I really liked the story till the end when it shoved it's message down my throut and lost all subltly.

The ending was actually changed for the PS3 version it was so poor...

Care to explain? I want spoilers...nao!

Oh, half of the things in that first video I haven't seen. When do you have Crescendo in your party? I'm in the tower of time or something...chapter seven, and I haven't had him in my party once yet.

 

[strangeleaf]

Very good review. Thank you for putting so much creativity into it.
I always wondered about Eternal Sonata. For some reason it always felt a bit to cheesy.

Now i may give i a try, or at least try to make my friends buy it so i cant borrow it.

Well that was a trailer for the PS3 version; Crescendo and Serenade are playable characters in that game due to an exclusive deal. As for the alternative ending; I don't know what tey are only that it exists, as I played the game on my 360.

Care to elaborate (and use full stops / capital letters)...?

Great review, I found no fanboy bias in it and you can be proud of that. I have to say that, on my behalf, the final plot twist was a little extreme, not to say ridiculous, but it made for an interesting ending.
