This could have been an amazing game.....

I think Gamespot got this rating right.

I bought this game a long time ago and only played it about 3/4 of the way through. I would have finished but the story is just lame. Seriously very boring. I would literally fall asleep while playing this game. And the fighting is so easy, you can never die. If there was a difficulty setting, of super hard it would be still to easy.

But there are many good things about the game. You can create your own combos to use in battle, upgrade your weapons, have a lot of different weapons and weapon skills at your disposal. The fighting blends real time with turned based battle. Think FF4 or Chrono Trigger's fighting system, but you can move your character around. The thing about it is no matter how far away the enemy is from you, it can still hit you without actually touching you. Kinda defeats the purpose of being able to move around in my opinion.

It was cool to make your own character and all, but he doesn't really play a role in the game.........why even bother?

The multiplayer can be fun when you team up with friends, but it gets repetitive, and still the game is still un-challenging.

Overall not looking forward to White Knight Chronicles 2, unless the game has a difficulty setting, of normal, hard, super hard, extremely hard, and the story gets better. (A LOT BETTER)
