Even the over the top Japanese wierd parts are beautiful. Alot of work has gone into the art style of this game. Extra sprites and 3D effects make the environments come alive. Backgrounds are faux 3D hand painted and pre-rended images. What I really like about this game is how much it feels like my old favorites on the SNES and PS1. Thankfully voice overs can be turned off, and if you can read you won't miss them. And the voice acting is often beyond painful. Any long time RPG fan will find most of the story ho-hum been there done that, though newbies shouldn't mind. So when I saw it for cheap on E-bay, I decided to give it a go. I missed out on this game when it first came out.

Read full reviewīaten Kaitos, a taste of the olde schoole I bought it because game cube has so few good games out there I thought I'd give it a shot. I don't think I'll be interested in going through it again any time soon, but there is enough content to give many hours of play time. Graphically the game is superb and the environments very diverse etherial and imaginative. It isn't highly additive but I definently liked it more than I thought I would.

Using cards allows for chance with quick thinking allowing pairs and series of cards to magnify effects. In a typical RPG players may find that random numbers are generated with little input from the player so essentially your random numbers are based on what you've equiped in your inventory. I have to admit I wasn't crazy about going around collecting cards but in effect it works out rather nicely. This is a good thing, though it does take some getting used to. This is an oddball game, it is very Japanese it seems Japan is always trying to create unusual variants on the usual games. During combat the cards are suffled and then you select cards to play for lethal or healing effects. It is sword and sorcery futuristic fantasy RPG in which strategy involves an inventory of "magnus" which are like an endless variety of playing cards. Most of the humanoid inhabitants of the game have wings, the protagonist of the game is a bit of freak having one natural wing and another engineered wing. "Baten Kaitos" refers to a star in Cetus (the whale constellation) The scenerio is set in the future after the oceans have been destroyed and everyone lives in islands high above polluted skies.
