Valkyrie Profile: Covenant Of The Plume

When you think Valkyrie Profile, you might think of the original game, which has in recent years been ported to the PSP. But have no doubt in your mind if you go to buy this game - This is NOT that type of game. While the game itself is presentable, the sprites being quite crisp, the occasional animation being a treat to watch, the game itself is literally trying it's hardest to be unplayable. A strategy game mimicking Fire Emblem or Tactics Advance/War of the Lions, yet holding little of the charm, and all of the difficulty. Thought any of those were a pain in the backside - you haven't seen anything. Music is good, looks nice, but the gameplay is it's downfall. Players are punished for not achieving the near impossible - Playable characters can also be sacrificed for a brief moment of enhanced power, but never to be used again, and characters aren't exactly plentiful. Playing this will not be easy, or will you do it in one straight play through. Attempt, if you dare.

Well, the game sames good at beggining seen as thats the only part av played. my mate has the game and he came to mine n i had ago of this..and i dint get far, just the part were u fight at the begining and the battle system seems reeli nice and graphics r pretty good, music n voices r OK. but i don't want to buy it yet, am going to wait for other people reviews about this game..especially from people who have played more into the game, soo i can see more of how the story is and the gameplay etc, i will buy it after other peoples reviews. i like RPG's especially all FF ones for DS and PSP, currently playing Chronos trigger and FF3 (:

im slightly confused by where this game is actually goin and it is very hard to get into. the graphics arent great during the actual parts where u get to play the game. although to be fair to it the story line isnt bad. it seems to be one of those games where it could have been good but they dropped the ball a bit. good if u want a rpg
