Pandora's Tower Review
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but swords and chains excite me. Should you climb the towers in Xseed's JRPG/adventure hybrid to save your cursed (and tragically whiny) girlfriend?

What do these ratings mean?

This is game is well....interesting.

GR hit it right on the nose...great gameplay and plot but it seems more like a "okay, I got lost in the woods and there's rabid bunnies chasing after me that I have to shoot" then an actual survival-horror. The visual effects are excellent, even the co-op mode is great(sometimes too great as your partner seems to be very selfish when it comes to picking items); but it doesn't even play like a Resident Evil game.

Is it worth your money? Definitely, great re-playability factors as well. Should it be called Flubby Bunny Hunting 5 instead of Resident Evil 5? Also a definite yes.

Great game, missing the "Resident Evil" theme. Only slightly disappointing, hopefully the next game in this series is much SCARIER! Mwaahahaha.
