okay the graphics are stunning and about as good as the humble ps1 is going to get but I've got quite a few criticisms of this game so here goes:1) Its hard to know what you're supposed to be doing half of the time so a lot of the gameplay is spent running around doing nothing.2) The combat is ok, but it can be VERY annoying a lot of the time due to the 'affinities' of weapons and the 'risk' system.3) Weapons and affinities are a good idea, but the way they are implemented is dreadful. I found it infuriating.4) The weapon creation system is appaling and it is almost impossible to find a combination that does anything. And when it does there is no way of checking so it ends up just as a (bad) time wasting issue.5) The story is okay but its hard to get a feel for the characters and get involved with the story as in mgs and ff games.Overall, I wouldn't buy this game(...).
