Got it in the post this morning and at first I was anything but impressed. It just had Dreamcast game written all over it, further I got in the more I started to like it though.

The graphics aren't up to much, though they're never ugly (except in the bits where you're flying the ship). Ususally hate turn based combat but I gotta say this is quite fun, the special moves look bad-ass...well at least the one i've seen does.

So far so good, I can see it getting more involving the further in you play. So ummmm yeah, good game so far, I shall go and play some more in a bit.

One thing that made me laugh was playing hide and seek with the tard kids, for some reason they have the strange idea that if they stand behind a washing line with their legs clearly showing, then people can't see them.

In terms of hide and seek techniques, Zelda's kids win the first round :D

Yeah, I found them both quite quickly whenI realised that the sun doesn't point.

I'm currently fighting Grendel.

He's evil.

BUt at least my attacks actually harm him.

And I was annoyed that it wasn't a riddle like someone in the King's Hut said it was.

Yay, I like my Delphinus.

Polly has found her long losthusband.

I hate the Dark Rift.

Enrique's firstS.Move is cool.

Pirates Wrath is simply amazing, though I think I learned it a bt earlier than the game expected me to.

Daccats treasure was predictable.

And the Daccat's Island's boss's Death Waltz was truly annoying, but Pirates Wrath killed them no problem.

That reminds me, I was going to write a guide to finding all the crew members.

Just shelled out for Burnout 2 and now I realise this is out..

You don't sound too excited, Tiltawhirl (this is from reading the original post). Is it really a 'must-have'?

Best RPG I've ever played, but I'm not Tilta.

I wasn't at first, but I love the game now.

Haven't played it for a few days though because I'm trying to complete a few of my other games and get them out the way so I can properly sit down and play it.

Tis brilliant so far though.
