This game, and Dead Space, were two games that flew under the radar for me, but once I started looking at both, Valkyria in particular, I just knew I had to get my hands on the game.
Turns out, this game would not disappoint. Lovely artwork, innovative battle system, and a storyline that managed to hold its own, this game definitely ranks up there as one of the best games I've played in recent memory.
The only gripe I had about this game...
...is how they handled the squad. I mean, there were other people in the squad besides Welkin, Alicia, Largo, Rosie, and Isara ( :cry: ; for those of you who got that far, you know what I mean. I knew it was coming, but it still sucked.) It would've been nice if they had been able to portray the other squad members as well. For instance, anyone else think that having a cut-scene between Largo and Jann would have led to massive LULZ?
