Page Chronica (PS3) Review | GamingIllustrated

GamingIllustrated writes:

"Page Chronica is a side-scrolling action-platformer about a librarian named Topez. While doing her librarian duties, Topez comes across a strange book that she has never seen before in all of her years working at the Universal Library in the Infinite Palace. Both bored and disgruntled with her job, she decides to investigate the strange book, releasing an evil entity known as Big Bad. Big Bad goes on to corrupt the World of Stories and it is up to Topez to set things right. Page Chronica is like Rayman meets Bookworm; it adds word-puzzle elements to the already popular side-scrolling action-platformer genre. The player slows down time by entering Page World, a dimension where Topez can grab floating letters from the air with her mind in order to create words."

Page Chronica Review | ComboCaster

It's a platformer side-scroll using a mechanical writing in its action. The game starts up decently, with some interesting cutscenes. The art is well drawn and well told story. The main character is Topez, a librarian in a library that stores all dreams. The story begins with a day when curiosity gets the better of Topez and she opens a book should not, releasing "The Big Bad 'a demonic being shaped black cloud.

Unfortunately this early it is not even playable is the best the game has to offer. Once the graphics of the game begins is shown the first problem. Graphically Page Chronicle recalls a bad PS2 game and say one bad game of the PS2 because even if they have worse graphics, no games for the PlayStation original old lady far more beautiful than this. Even with the bad graphics, Chronica Page can not even show good animations, or even remain stable, with one of the most unstable framerates as I can remember.

PlayStation Store Preview – February 12th, 2013: Overdue Dragonborn

This week, it’s better late than never with Skyrim’s Dragonborn DLC. Other standouts include Persona 4 Arena on the PS3, Ecolibrium on the PS Vita, and a pair of Twisted Metal classics. There’s also a Yu-Gi-Oh! game – I didn’t realize that was still a thing for there to be a game made about it.

I sure wish they would release ratchet & Clank FFA on the Vita.

TrendyGamers4092d ago

But we have to wait a few months instead.

Army_of_Darkness4091d ago (Edited 4091d ago )

Now it's just a matter of when I'm gonna buy one, not If I'm gonna buy one.

I need a price drop on the memory cards, the system itself and a JRPG like Ni No Kuni on the Vita to convince me to get it sooner.

MostJadedGamer4092d ago

There is also a Dynasty Warriors 7: Empires demo that is coming tomorrow which single handily makes this the best PSN update in months.

Its been a long time since I have anticipated a game as much as DW7:Empires.

Same here, but Insomniac did say that whoever purchased the R&C FFA on the PS3 would get a free copy of Ratchet Deadlocked HD once that's out. Either way, it's a win win.

Wedge194092d ago

Pretty good week on the PSN! Can't wait to get back into Skyrim.

SAE4092d ago (Edited 4092d ago )

I don't know how you guys buy Dlc's. It just feels soo wrong to me. >.<

Edit:Even if i got the Dlc for free i still can't play it. I never bought one. I'm still used to ps1/ps2 xD

bluetoto4092d ago (Edited 4092d ago )

@SAE

Then it pains me to tell you you most likely haven't played a complete game if you've bought or played ANY game made in the last 2 or 3 as most have DLC that's been obviously cut from the game, which you wouldn't know if you haven't played it.

Alot of DLC improves the experience as some games leave you feeling like it's good but missing something or unanswered questions.

And don't fool yourself, most people who haven't played DLC think they aren't missing anything, not true in some cases as most of the content is cut and clear to see once you play it(Batmans catwoman chapters, missing chapters in AC 2, KOA had withheld or missing content etc...)

Mikeyy4092d ago

We buy DLC because we acually enjoyed the game and crave more of it. (Crazy I know..)

You have never played and beaten a game 100%, and just wanted more?

DLC started on PC and back then It was free, added via patches, so I guess I've come to expect more content in games after release.

For almost any PC game there are patches with new content, or Expansion packs.

ScytheX34092d ago

hoping Persona 4: Arena doesnt exceed $40 but more than likely will be $50 -_-

Myst4092d ago

I don't know why but I am always still interested in seeing what new avatars show up...Anyway think I may get Alien Breed due to the Cross-buy and PERHAPS Dragonborn...

Page Chronica (PlayStation Network) Review - Push Square

Push Square: "Page Chronica is built upon a strong premise, but it’s undone by poor execution and substandard level design. It’s a title that practically begs to be liked, but no matter how genuine the developer’s ambitions, it’s impossible to ignore the game's flaws. This sloppy adventure is best left locked in the book cabinet along with all of the other forgotten fairy tales."
