Videogamer – Blue Dragon Awakened Shadow Review

Videogamer: "It upsets me to speak about a Blue Dragon game with such venom – this is a franchise I'd really like to see succeed. The truth of the matter, though, is that Awakened Shadow is a sub-par RPG, with sub-par role-playing and sub-par storytelling. Considering the game combines the talents of both Mistwalker and tri-Crescendo – two incredibly experienced studios when it comes to JRPGs – Awakened Shadow can only be considered a major disappointment. My advice would be to forget it ever happened, and to keep those fingers crossed for a proper Blue Dragon 2 release in the near future."
