Jim Sterling: "Despite a few issues with AI and animations, Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom is an absolutely superb effort from Game Republic. It remains charming and sweet without ever becoming cloying or twee, with a genuinely interesting story and a wonderful character in Teotl. The gameplay feels at once traditional and unique, and the overall experience is both remarkable and memorable. No other game released this year has quite so much heart as this."
The great thing about being one of the most popular consoles of all-time is that there’s always more underappreciated bangers to spotlight.
Definitely a good game and loved the art style. My daughter watched me play it when she was 4 years old. I’ll have to replay it with her someday now that she’s older. It’s crazy it’s been around 11 years.
I was thinking of pulling out my PS3 super slim this winter to replay Rain, and try to tackle some of the backlog I acquired.
I love Enslaved such a sleeper hit, Asuras Wrath a very good game I still own, and I wish EA would put out a new Dante's Inferno another game I enjoyed. I never heard of the Rain game I might have to try it out might give Ebay a snoop or two.
enchanted arms and folklore most definitely.
theres also a game about a red haired guy and a girl who is a sword or something. good game
With over 5144 games on the PS3, it is easy to miss out on some great games. Here are some of the best unknown games on the PS3.
I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.
Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.
WET is something I wish they'd remake, they had so many great ideas but not all of them were executed properly
It had a lot of potential
Also Wanted Weapons of Fate is another game that had some new fun gameplay ideas.
GameZone: " Here are 10 disappointingly underrated titles that deserve a second chance in the form of a sequel on the next crop of video game platforms."
Impressive score... I loved Folklore, and looks like they revamped the formula and made a great game this time around!
I just ordered this today at Amazon just in case the price changes. It's 39.99 right now. I was planning to pick this up at kmart with 50 dollars worth of coupon I have in hand, but they totally screw me over when they've decided to carry Splatterhouse instead of this game.
Great score, but I personally didn't like the demo for this game at all. I got bored rather quick and that giant troll thing that follows you around reminded me of Sloth from the Goonies.
@Dipso - It's not, that's actually one thing I liked about the demo. Shit was funny as hell.
Jims been plugging away and hyping up this title for months now..I don't think he could have allowed himself to dislike it. ;-)
Great to see this little game getting such high profile praise, an 8 from Game Informer and a 7 from Edge, not bad at all. I expect to see some polarising low end reviews before the week is out, these type of games always have that love it or hate it effect on critics.
Its not out in Ireland until Friday so I've a full week of tiptoeing around the internet to avoid spoilers. Can't wait.
"Jim Sterling".....Yeah, I stop reading right there. This guy is a moron and shouldn't be allowed to review any games.
