Fragile Dreams just came to my doorstep

[Vonwert]

I just got home and found my copy. Sadly I can't play it tonight till I can get some batteries for my wii controller.

But the instruction book is in color and the art work looks really good. I can't wait to play. I will be sure to comment after I play a bit of it.

I have to wait until May to get it. I so sad.

You should get one of those wii remote chargers. I got a Nyko one, and it's great.

I hear it has a really, really good story with really, really terrible gameplay.

So it's the Wii's very own Heavy Rain then?



Oh my god...I can't believe I just typed that.

Didn't realize the game came out two weeks ago, what a quiet release. I played the Japanese version last year and yeah, control is pretty clunky and annoying but the visual style is nice. I can hear my wallet crying.

Never heard of it.

I played a little bit today. I suggest turning the Japanese voices on first. It isn't that the English voices are bad, but they have a lot of pauses that feel out of place.

Combat is so far just swinging at the enemy when it gets close until eventually it goes away. Can be annoying to get the camera to face the enemy. But I don't see the game being too hard that the camera will be too much of a combat killer.

Moving the flashlight around is nice, but unless you have your sensor bar line up properly, it can be somewhat annoying to move your view down.


Now for the good parts.

Beautiful game. Little details litter the area, which makes exploring the walls and corners a fun task. Sadly though there isn't a lot of clickable stuff that describes what it is for the most part. Of course that could be just the first area.

I got a little scared when a cat meowed from the wii remote. But apparently they made the cat that was moving around in the first area sound through the remote. Kinda neat.

I can't wait to see what happens next. The game has a lot of ambiance.

I've had this for a few weeks now...just need to get around to playing it. And listening to the soundtrack CD I got for preordering.

Gosh there are a lot of save points littered all over the place. Which kinda makes things pretty easy. Granted this game won't give anyone a challenge.

I don't like how you can't see some of the enemies till you get close to them. At least they give audio cues, but I would have still liked to have seen them.

Some of the enemies are kinda spooky.
