Odin Sphere (PS2)

Hey boys and girlstime today for another review of Atlus gold :) with Odin Sphere. A game based around Norse Mithology so let's begin.

Story: There is one large story focusing around 5 main characters. The valkyrie Gwendolyn, The Pooka Prince Corneilus, The Fairy Mercedes, The Shadow Knight Oswald, and The with Velvet. Each character has a mostly unique sotry with a few ties to te others stories. Completing one character will unlock the next so on and so forth making the epicness of the game even grander. 5/5

Gameplay: Each character has similar move styles up attack, down attack, etc. Though each character preforms these moves differently the main bread and butter are the Magics and unique skills. The valkyrie can fly and dive bomb people while the Fairy can rapid pound into an enemy with her gun. Each character has a good balance of similarities and differences making the game even more unique. 4/5

Graphics: Graphicly the game is pretty though you wouldn't think side scrolling through a circular stage could be that cool looking but it is. Spells skill and characters are all done very we'll the only problem is the occasional lag. 4/5

Audio:
Voices are awesome though they like to pause without reason sometimes. The music is fun too and helps to get you into the story. Besides whats more fun then hearing your enemies scream as you hurl napalm onto them. 4/5

Replay:
This depends...the game has difficulty settings but this doesn't change the story and though the game is really good you may not want to play it again but for me there is enough to warrant another play. 3/5

Overall:
Definately another gold Atlus title. I'm a raving fan of most of their games and this won't be an exception. Odin Sphere has a great story good character design and development. It's just plain fun and I recommend it to all you out there. 4/5
