Own this game. Imported it at great cost. Never played and now I never will.

Thanks, Joe. Now I blame you and this tardy review for the bucket of Money I spent bringing this over. Ironically, I think I picked this up alongside Chrono Cross and Thousand Arms. So I'll consider it a cursed purchase, every inch.


For us. For them. For you.

I actually played this to the end. Quite enjoyed it despite all the hate it gets. But I'm not sure I'd feel the same say now. That was at a time when I had a dearth of RPGs to play.


Don't panic!

Ouch. It's kind of ironic that you paid good money for a budget title. And not a good budget title like some of the ones available on Steam or XBL these days, but a crappy one from the PlayStation era.

I will say, though, that I've been curious about Battle Hunter.

I actually did enjoy this game somewhat the first time I played it. I think I had rated it 6/10 before. Unfortunately, this game hasn't aged well at all. It's a functional game, but its biggest drawback is how boring and generic it is in comparison to the rest of the genre.

Before, I had made the 'budget title' excuse to justify keeping it and playing it. Now, though, when I think budget title I think of games like Bastion or From Dust, which pretty much showed that you don't have to sacrifice quality for affordability.


The only thing my milkshake brings to the yard is a subpoena.
