    An unforgettable experience

    Neir is an open world RPG, centering around a character who's daughter is sick with the "black scrawl", something which has killed most of the people on the planet. Over the course of the game (and its four endings) you... Read Full Review

    It pays off if you have great patience.

    After walking past this game many times in various game stores I finally picked it up and read the description on the back, the characters looked pretty awesome and I do like unique looking RPGs. Why not I thought. I ... Read Full Review

    Nier is one of the best JRPGs to come in along time, and it will be hard to beat.

    First time completion time: 25 hours 13 minutes Time to see all endings: 36 hours 25 minutes I was very sceptical about this game, review scores were... less than glowing, and the people at Gamestop (where I purchase... Read Full Review

    How underrated can this game get?

    How underrated can this game get? Gamespot gave it a 5/10 and 1UP gave it a C-. Sure, other rating ranged from mid 70s and 4/5s, but does this game rock or what?! I loved every minute of it! I didn't expect it. Rarely ga... Read Full Review

    If you enjoy multiple quests and endless enemies, then you will like this game.

    The biggest reason this game doesn't get a higher score has nothing to do with the game play or fetch quests. I just didn't like the fact that they barely explained the storyline of why the world was the way it was. At... Read Full Review

    Unfunny, uninspiring, unbelievable and truly awful game.

    Playing something as bad as Nier gives you an immediate perspective on games such as; Dragon Age, Fallout 3, Demon's Souls, etc. You realize that those games are actually good... they tell a coherent story that is engag... Read Full Review

    Super addictive, amazing boss battles, and great gameplay, If only it looked better

    Quirky, Lacks Polish, Boring for the Eyes, Char movement could induce seizures

    thanks but no thanks... this is what you'd expect when they were shoveling sh!t out for the PS2 (ex. Spawn lol). Pass pass pass pass pass. I can't wait to remove it from the xbox 360's HDD. I'm a die-hard RPG fan and to ... Read Full Review
