This game wasn't meant to be a hugely impressive game. It feels like it was created to fill a niché for a certain type of PS3 crowd. It definitely doesn't push graphically, but that wasn't the purpose. If you're looking for a decent action-rpg that will keep you busy while you're waiting for more games on the PS3, then this is a good time consumer. The gameplay itself works very well, though does become slightly repetitive after a good 5 hours of play. Once you've gained the ability to use all the spells, you really lose your push to move further along in the game. The story is interesting, although it leads you into areas that just confuse you. Sometimes you have no clue why you're someplace...but does it really matter when all you need to do is walk through it and kill things? Some of the puzzles are implemented well, but a select few have pretty dismal controls(blocking the sewer pipes for one). But, even after all complaints, you still have an enjoyable game that's definitely worth a play.
