So I wrote an article on 10 reasons you should play PSP2

[PinkyMonkey]

Overall a nice read, though as far as constructive criticism goes

1. I too might have an issue with the anime thing.. but really don't think it's that important

2. You may wish to make some reference to the diablo-esque game play (hack n' slash.. yes I realize diablo is not the founding game of this genre but it is the most well known). Perhaphs some comparisons to Monster Hunter as that is popular on the PSP I know.

3. Maybe go into a bit more depth about the four classes and perhaps address some of the balance issues. While I know this is a hype piece so to speak (and not saying this negatively) class balance can confer to play-style and player chosen difficulty settings to might be worthy of mention.

4. Stylistically form a structural standpoint I would mention vanity character customization and room/decorations in one section rather than have them split up in two places.

5. Oops and I don't think I saw any mention of he DLC and promotion codes.

Nice job and glad to see folks writing things about PS!

I have to disagree. The whole series has a distinct anime feel/culture/look and you can clearly see that on the picture. People who like JRPG's/anime will get it, while the frat boys who play fallout are not the audience for this game anyways. Wouldn't you agree?

I would rather not sugar coat it.

There is no if ands or buts about it. Definitely anime-feel. I love both.

@ Pinky, thanks for the feedback.

what is the problem with the "anime"-thing
sorry but i think people that would be turned off by that
are people, that don't like anime/japanes-like, and as such they would not like PSP2
so where is the problem?

I think some here are trying to make a point that, the use of the term "anime" is an overgeneralization of the game and that some people may be turned off by that vs. giving the game a chance based off of its other merits.

Like I said before, if that is a hang up for some and that they avoid the game just because of the cover art, or the use of the word "anime," then that is their problem, and I am not going to overcompensate for people like that.

I salute you.

Overall, great article that really hit the game's key qualities. Everything else like dlc and such should be left to personal research, so great job! If I had read this prior to knowing the game, it would have inspired me to go and get it!

Kudos to you!
