Shadow Hearts was pretty spectacular.

Unfortunately, I’ve never beat it, because I bought it used, and the game froze up at this part a decent way in.

I took it back to the game store, and they were more then happy to let me exchange the game- the problem was that they didn’t have Shadow Hearts anymore.

I plan on snatching it up if I can ever track it down again.

Also, the sequel looks awesome.

there’s a second one?! aww man I havent even seen the first!

Yup, you can see some awesome character art and such for it right here. (http://www.shadowhearts.net/)

It’s being released as Shadow Hearts: Covenant in the US, and hopefully, it’ll be out here sometime this year. ^^

Yeah I’ve heard of it, and have a poster for the first one I got out of my playstation magazine a while ago. I knew there was a second one too, think I saw a preview for it even once.

awww man! we get things like a few years after the US….we havent even heard of it yet……oooooooh!! i guess ill ahve to wait…….oooooh…….bummer!

hehe! that one looks like Yuri….hmmm..is he related?…is says Hyuga……

Heh, Shadow Hearts is a great RPG. In my opinion, it is far superior than it’s prequel, Koudelka. Shadow Hearts was, to me, a more darker, gothic feeling RPG, which I love. Dark games that is.

I haven’t finished it completely yet, as I’ve been busy playing other games (What can I say, I like a lot of games, and I’ve got too many to damn well play and finish! LOL).

It is a good game, but the Judgement Wheel reminded me too much of the additions system in Legend of Dragoon. Granted the Judgement Wheel and Additions system do different things, they are similiar… to a certain degree. Which is one thing, which did annoy me when playing it.

Apart from some other minor things which annoyed me, Shadow Hearts is a great game, and anyone who likes a RPG, should give it a try. You never know what you may find, yes?
