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?

I actually went and bought the 360 just to get this game. With that being said. I was not at all dissapointed with this game. It was way more than i was expecting. We will start with the graphics.

I have a ps3. I have a 360. I have Resistance, I have Gears of War, and I regret spending $600. And I do not at all regret spending $400. Gears of War. Boy o boy, once this game turns on the first thing you will say is, "wholy ****". This is the most detailed and clear game I have ever seen. The shadows, terrain, everything is done in amazing detail. The character designes are cool, and look reall. The game looks like the videos used to look on the ps2. And boy does it run smooth. I was so impressed by this game. The effects when stuff blows up makes you turn your head to keep it out of your eyes, I mean its that detailed. Resistance fall of man doesnt touch this games graphics.

Now for the gameplay, although it does towards the end fill repetitive, the smoothness of the gameflow and shooting will keep you holding that controler for hours. Youll be running ducking going in swat style, getting mad and run up to a enemy and shove your gun in his mouth and blow his head off. Your playing in 3rd person most of the time, to shoot you will zoom in some right about the shoulder of your awesomly detailed character and it feel like a fps. Most of the time I felt like I was playing a movie.

The online, lil short but very sweet
