Last Rebellion (Playstation 3)
Revenge of the Ninth Degree! After Nine is betrayed and killed by his brother, Nine wants nothing more than revenge for his own murder. To stay alive he is forced to share his body and soul with the female Aisha, a magical sealer who must help Nina become the heir and savior of his family. In Last Rebellion, Nine is a Blade, whose specialty is physical attacks, and Aisha is a Sealer, who casts magic spells. Because they share a single body, players must switch between the two during the battle and strategically choose which one attacks first.
Last Rebellion (Playstation 3) Reviews
Thisw game is awesome. Some of the more western RPG purists out there probably don't "get it". But this game reminds me lot of the Shin megami Tensei series. It's very styalized and and the characters really come to life in the game. The combat system is pretty cool. Each enemy has several body parts you need to hit in sequence, as you do, they become vulerable to magic for a set number of turns (from 1 - 5). If you hit all the body parts in order, the enemy as a whole becomes vulnerable to magig for 5 turns and you get a stat bonus. Then ytou throw everything you got at them with your spell caster. This process can make battels with simple and quick...or truly epic.
The two main characters can "switch in and out" but only one character is available at a time. You can strategically assign spells to each so that one chatacter set up the enemy, and the other puts them out with their magic skills. It's a really fun setup and takes some strategic thinking to truly appreciate it.

Yakuza 2, the previous entry of the series is a perfect and brilliant example of how this Japan-centric series should be localized. That is, with subtitles and original Japanese dialogue and MOST importantly, with ALL the content left intact.
Yakuza 3 is a great game. But it doesnt hold up to the standard SEGA America set with Yakuza 2. 21 side missions were quietly cut from the original 123 in the Japanese version as well as minigames such as shogi, mahjong, and hostess club manager/coaching. Sega says its because they dont "resonate" with the fans or something. Yeah...the entire game is culturally Japan-centric. We know what we're getting into. I'm cutting 1 star because the cuts dont "resonate" with me. But please support this game.

This game gets the job done, a valiant effort and a great exclusive. Nice battles, music, graphics, etc. Get this game so we can have more JRPG's localized.
