Platform Nation: White Knight Chronicles International Edition Review

Platform Nation writes: "Wow. Well, first let me say sorry it took me a bit to get this out to you guys, I played for a bit longer than normal I'm sure, I just love to level up before continuing on. Habit.

I read a few bad reviews for this before I started the game, and I have to say, they are SO wrong! If they were even playing the same game I'd be surprised…

Let's start you out with a bit of information about the game, mainly for those who haven't really heard too much yet."

"I read a few bad reviews for this before I started the game, and I have to say, they are SO wrong! If they were even playing the same game I'd be surprised… "

I fully agree. The low-ball reviews absolutely SHOCK me for this game. It's so deep with its customization and size and the online features, it's such a well-done game and offers so much value and playability for your dollar, much more so than just any other other JRPG that's come out this generation (or really any other, for that matter). It's rated by some on the level of Genji, Lair, Haze, and other stinkers of this generation, and yet it's SO much better than that, I can't believe that they would give it scores similar to those games.

I love the game. Single player was good, left some things to be desired but seeing as a second shouldn't be too far away that should be fixed. The online is sweet. A lot of customization in it, thought takes a bit of time to grind out the items you need to make gear or level up your guild rank. If they increase the lobby size, it would be nice.

remanutd555147d ago

love the game , i cant wait for WKC 2

Ravage275147d ago

the georama feature is ingenious and i'm excited to see how wkc2 will improve on it. there's lots of potential in the online segment.

When buying new IPs, i'm far more interested in the new ideas brought to the table than the flaws. That's what the sequel is for - to iron out the flaws and polish the experience.

Unfortunately, the majority of reviewers spent little time with the game(FF13 effect) and chose to focus on its flaws.

rdgneoz35147d ago

I think half the reviewers never played that far into the online portion of the game.

nefertis5147d ago

Its sad that some people are missing out on a fun experience this game is so much fun, I cant wait until WKC 2. WKC and Resonance of fate are unique rpgs that need too be played by more people.I feel alot of games in february and march are being overly shadow by FFxiii and Gow3. Playb3yond

I hope this one was better then the last one. It wasn't that bad of a game, but i kind of had high hopes

Misterhbk4604d ago

I picked it up and I'm loving it so far. Haven't gone online yet though. Then again, I was a fa of the first despite what reviewers and others said so my opinion may not be the best to judge off of for you, since you didn't like the first.

gameguidedog4604d ago

It's pretty damn cool actually, plus it comes with most of the first one anyway. :)

JerryMatters4604d ago

scepter4604d ago

MaideninBlack4618d ago

Most anticipated game of the year for me!

DA_SHREDDER4618d ago (Edited 4618d ago )

If playing WKC1 on this disc feels like a totally different then the laster iteration then I'm really intrigued. Not that WKC1 was bad, it just felt rushed and in need of alot of filling in the blanks. I'm a bit skeptical, but I hope this game ends up being good cause I really want Level 5 to prove how talented they really are.

btw, the way this lady talks is so darn cute, I just wanna hug the crap out of her.

dragonyght4618d ago

its was pretty good it just felt like a ps2 game they port to ps3 and up the graphic and nothing else i mean it felt like a very low budget game it could had been different story if sony put AAA budget behind it they good a pretty good thing going the specially the online

JAMurida4618d ago

IMO, Level 5 has already proved how talented they are with WKC 1. I mean yes the game has it's glitches/flaws and what not, but thats to be expected in a new IP/game. And what's better is pretty much everything that was wrong with the first is corrected in the second game, along with adding improvements to make it better, (like being able to make your own knight and customize it to your liking). THAT is what you call a "sequel". Fix problems with the first game and add new features that compliment the existing ones and make the game better.

And yes, the lady was pretty cute, lol.

JAMurida4618d ago

@MaideninBlack

For once on this site, I COMPLETELY agree with someone.

mediastudies4618d ago

Robert you're covering JRPGs now? Have you been talking to TechGaming's Deagle or what?

BTW- Thanks for the interview. May have to pick this one up.

pennyman4618d ago

ahh COIN-OP TV covers a variety of console games (and some pc) I did get most of these questions from Deagle of Tech Gaming tho :)

tiffac0084618d ago (Edited 4618d ago )

I'm definitely getting this game. WKC by no means perfect but I still enjoyed it nonetheless.

TBM4618d ago

i enjoyed the first one a lot even though it wasnt perfect. i still have my save file, but i think imma start over since part 2 battle system will be in part 1. this is awesome news to me.

pennyman4618d ago

thx for the comments/checking out the video -- feel free to share on your blogs/twitter

GodofwarGoty4763d ago (Edited 4763d ago )

these is great to hear since the sequel is coming soon to america and europe ( and its already out in japan)

WildArmed4762d ago

Aye, Looking forward to the sequel.
Probably will replay WKC1 w/ the new combat system and stuff to get a better feel of the system.

Was a great game; that is if you chose to invest time into the MP.

The SP campaign was pretty weak, but like I've said again and again (I sound like a broken record) the MP was the saving grace for this awesome game.

Easily one of my best investments in games for the PS3

chidori6664763d ago

average game IMO.

Story is simplistic..and same old rescue the princess..

the game It could be better. However, it's still a "ok" game.

kevnb4762d ago

but the gameplay was terrible.

NaiNaiNai4762d ago

I have it right now.

Haven't played it in a few days. Kinda got bored after fighting the giant wolf demon lady thing. lol.

But I'll start playing again soon. I get the same feeling from this like when I played blue dragon.

WildArmed4762d ago

lol, You won't really get much out of the Single Player.

I highly encourage you to invest some time into the MP.
It was the saving grace for the game (imo)

Spent quite a good number of hours into the MP <3

Great game, looking forward to the sequel!

TheDivine4762d ago (Edited 4762d ago )

I loved blue dragon and hated wkc but i get what you mean niether quite lived up to the potential. White knight sucked badly, i was expecting an epic ff12 like game and got a slow fake mmorpg. The second looks great though hopefully its better. I heard they sped up combat so thats def good. Il plow through it though just so im up to speed for the second but i feel like i wasted 15 bux on this game. Again though if you like mmos youl dig wkc.

NaiNaiNai4762d ago

well I've tried getting online, but it tells me my character isn't allow online and then kicks me.

WildArmed4762d ago

Oh really?
Are you playing an imported version? (Jap)
Because I think you need a JP PSN account to get online.
Thou it shouldn't give you any issues if you are using the International Version.

Azianphil884762d ago

congratz to Sony and especially Level 5 on their milestone.
I'm looking forward to their sequel here in America.

BoNeSaW234762d ago

Title should read: White Knight Chronicles Franchise Has Only Sold 1 Million Worlwide!

Pretty poor for a having 4 games under it's belt. I have never played it and apparently most other gamers haven't either. I was excited before it launched because the PS3 didn't have many RPG's until I read reviews and watched videos of the boring ass combat. I'll pass on this series.
