My all time favorite game, in the history of the world, beyond all shadow of doubt, isGladius. This genius of a game sold like crap, and is, in my opinion, the most underappreciated of LucasArts games. I mention this because I adore strategy role-playing games, and if they aren’t positively drowning in anime stylings — well, I’d be pretty damn happy.
So although I didn’t get to spend much time with Konami upcoming downloadable strategy RPG,Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment, I do have to say the prospect of a solid, 3D strategy role-playing game is pretty cool. For fans of theVandal Heartsseries, this is certainly something to keep an eye out for.
Vandal Hearts: Flame of Judgment(Xbox LIVE Arcade, PlayStation Network)Developer: ?Publisher: KonamiTo be released: TBA
Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgmentlooks to be a strategy role-playing game in its purist sense. The level they were showing off had a squad of spunky, cartoon tweens battling within a jungle setting against some undead skeletons. Each member had different skills and abilities, and they could move about the on a grid much likeFire EmblemorAdvance Wars, except, you know, in 3D. The game looks pretty good, especially considering this is a downloadable game.
It’s a bit early to make much of an impression, but taking a look at the pics, it’s easy to see that Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment warrants some attention.
