Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel Review

For people that arent aware this game goes hand in hand with the Fullmetal Alchemist anime series.So if you havent seen that and are planning to get this game then i'd hold off on that.With that being said for the amount time it took me to finish this game. I believe that it was time maybe not well spent but it wasnt a waste of time either. I only had a couple issues with the game one being the controls are a bit on the wacked out side and the other being the AI of your character partner.I dont know how many times.I was screaming at the TV for him to come to my aid and he keeps saying "okay" like a thousand times and wouldnt come over.Or he would and i'd be trying to get around him and he's blocking my path.

I mean dont get me wrong i did enjoy being able to change items into different ones and make new weapons to own the various enemies that you face.But for me to have a partner they should be actively contributing to the battle not watching me.Get swarmed by a horde of enemies not that they were hard.But what's the point.The story again follow the anime series so you kind of need to get into that beforehand, graphics are decent not really top notch but crappy.The levelling system didnt seem like it made any real difference in the game to me.

I rarely ever had problems getting past an enemy or a level.Only a rare occasion usually due to my own error.Was able to finish the game in a few sittings.I got sucked in by the story and when it was all said and done.I feel that it was an okay purchase, but i wouldn't pay 49.99 for it.I'd wait til it was cheaper or rent the game over a long weekend.

Hope the second one is a bit better than this one.

Mana Khemia 2: Fall Of Alchemy Review

Well If you played Mana Khemia 1, then you'll definitely love this one. One of the best games I would consider to be on the withering years on the play station 2 console. It has a nice variety of characters in which if you get enough, you can switch in battle. This game reminds me entirely of golden sun, except its not as great as golden sun, it still has memorable great battle music and similar battle systems. I love how it comes with the ost, that makes it worth buying even more, I wish most of the great games came with the ost. The gameplay is 2-D, Running around and on a overworld like map, seeing blob like monsters then encountering them like those in Tales of Symphonia. There are missions that pertain to the plot of each character, and those for just free roaming the world, and side missions for more items/cutscenes/character development arcs. They're skill tree's that through alchemy, you can obtain the item then gaining the skill for the person of choice. Overall, to me its a great game. I suggest buying the first one before buying the second one (duh), so you'd understand the plot.
