The newest one for the Ps3 was a great attempt, but in my part failed.
I have played aria of sorrow and enjoyed it, as well as symphony of the night.
But in the new one, the fighting is alright, but there is too much "sloth" in it overall.
Exploration in general is a good thing, but when you cant quickly climb a ledge, in a game where 90% of it involves climbing, is a giant pain.
There is AWESOME graphics and a cool, albeit short musical score, and the combat combinations are awesome as well. On bad thing is the difficulty.
I remember dying 15 times on 1 certain boss.

This game also takes cue's from SHadow of colossus and God of war, but doesn't perfect any of them in their respects. It does have superior graphics and Music, a 7.5/10 if you wanna give it a go.
