I love the large array of niche titles the PS2 has gotten over the years. That is why it is by and large my favorite system out of the previous generation. it just sucks how Sony of America barred releases of who knows how many titles due to their stupid licensing policies [people wonder why i own a japanese PS2, lolz]. I can see myself possibly liking Atelier Iris. Good review.

I gotta say I’m not hot on the timed dungeons, but I’m still getting this game no matter what.

Boss!! I admit, I saw the game and never took a chance. I think I will go to Game Crazy and pick up a copy.

jeffx – Updated the title, that was my fault (not Katie’s) when I was migrating the post over I chopped the title up. Oops! Yeah I hope NIS America will pick up Mana Khemia and Ar Toenlico 2 as well. I just wonder if there will be a market or them in 2008.

Last??? Someone sure is pessimistic!! Mana Khemia and Ar Tonelico 2 will come out here as well, MARK MY WORDS!!! Don’t count out smaller publishers who will take advantage of Sony’s lax PS2 licensing terms to pump out a lot of games in its final cycle… this is how we got “tales of destiny II” by the way.

Good review by the way… I just don’t agree with your attitude!
