Vagrant Story is one of those games that wows you at the start--a big "WOW!" in this case--but maintains only a tenuous hook in the long haul. In this mix of action/adventure and fantasy role-playing, players are cast as a Riskbreaker (think one-man army) named Ashley Riot, whose pursuit of a villainous cult leader takes him to the mysterious city of Lea Monde.The highly stylized graphics in Vagrant Story are easily some of the best ever seen on the PlayStation, and give the game a gorgeous, distinctive look to match its somber tone. Cinematic story sequences blend in almost seamlessly with gameplay, which takes place in 3-D environments (viewed from a third-person perspective) that can be rotated to provide the best angle.

Squaresoft's Vagrant Story: Write-off

Date of Review: Jun 25, 2001

The Bottom Line: While there are things about the game that are amazing, the gameplay itself becomes almost too repetive. This makes the game less fun than it should be.

Review: I had never heard of Vagrant Story the video game until my friend bought it. He kept fairly quit about it, and when I asked him how it was going he said, ?Just borrow it.? I had absolutely no idea what this game was about, (I assumed it had to do...

The Body Is But a Vessel For the Soul...

Date of Review: Jul 25, 2000

Review: ...A puppet which bends to the soul?s tyranny.
And lo, the body is not eternal,
For it must feed on the flesh of others,
Lest it return to the dust whence it came.
Therefore, must the soul
Deceive, despise, and murder men.
