Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the best, period - Nerd Reactor Review

Nerd Reactor reviews Xenoblade Chronicles and comes away with the impression that it's one of the best games ever. With its ambitious story, intricate world design, and engaging battle system, there is plenty reason to turn the Wii back on, even if for just one last hurrah.

It really is a good game, if you own a Wii, you should get this game period.

MrWonderful4364d ago

If you don't own a wii this is a reason to buy one. I did just for this game

-Gespenst-4364d ago

Really? Agh I really want to play this game but I didn't want to have to resort to that. Hmmm, it might happen though...

maniacmayhem4364d ago

This is the definitive jrpg for people who love jrpgs. This and Tales of Vesperia are pretty much the top RPG's for me this Gen.

NewMonday4363d ago

loved Tales of Vesperia, playing Tales of Graces right now and its even better, the first game to stop me from online FPS in 2 years.

CaptainN4363d ago

A shame the Wii version of Tales of Graces wasnt brought to America :/

Best JRPG series of the last 5 years imo

repsahj208d ago

I agree 100%. My top JRPG so far, together with Baldurs Gate 3 and FF16.

autobotdan208d ago (Edited 208d ago )

There is no together at the top. There is only one top jrpg series. Xenoblade Chronicles series is alone at the top

raWfodog208d ago (Edited 208d ago )

I like the Xenoblades series but my ‘top’ series would be either the Trails series or Persona series. Just too many good games for me to just pick one series though, so I say play them all lol.

autobotdan208d ago

You are hereby excommunicated the church of Xenoblade Chronocology

CappyBlack207d ago

I'm not huge into JRPGs, but my favorite is easily the Persona series. It's all opinion though. Xenoblade is a great series.

repsahj208d ago

XC4 for Switch 2 for the win!! So excited!

phoenixwing208d ago

Also they might port over xenoblade x to the switch 2

Tetsuya Takahashi Wants The Next Xenoblade To Be Vastly Different From Previous Games

Tetsuya Takahashi has revealed his plan to make the next Xenoblade vastly different from previous games.

I liked the Xenoblade X formula. It takes awhile, but opening up Mechs was amazing. Especially once you can fly them, and use them in battle. You have to put some time into the game to do it, but it's worth it!

Also, the graphics were more realistic than the other games. Still looks good today, just a lot more pop-in than is acceptable today, hell even too much for back then. It wasn't game breaking though.

gleepot208d ago

Xenoblade 1-3 and X are so great. That said, I'm ready for them to do a big change up.

Lightning Mr Bubbles573d ago

Me being a Playstation guy and a huge JRPG fan, I can say that the only franchises I actually miss that are on Switch are The Fire Emblem series and The Xenoblade Chronicles series. I've played neither but I've heard good things. I've seen people play Xenoblade Chronicles games on youtube, and it seems like they think it's a big deal so I'm curious.

Rebel_Scum572d ago

As someone who doesnt like jrpg’s that much these days I went into Xenoblade Chronicles blind and had a blast. Reminded me of that golden age of 16-bit and 32-bit jrpgs. If thats the era you liked then it should hit the spot.

jznrpg572d ago

I only have a Switch for the games that don’t come on PlayStation . There aren’t a ton but there are some good ones.

repsahj572d ago (Edited 572d ago )

I agree with top 1, for me xenoblade chronicles 3(and 2) is one of the greatest jrpg to date. It's like the feeling of playing ff7 on ps1 for the first time again. Imagine if XC3 was done with ps5 graphics, that will be magical. I might get the xc remaster before the year ends or after I got the platinum trophy of GoW ragnarok.

jznrpg572d ago

I didn’t care for 2 as much . It’s good but 3 is sooo much better than so is the first one imo .

repsahj572d ago

yeah I agree, but much better than any recent jrpg releases.
