Anyone played this game? I only recently got it now since the price has ducked under $100, and was pleasantly surprised. I don't usually expect much innovation in Japanese developed games, but VC is full of innovation and it seems to me the developers of the game took a leaf out of western tactical turn based games like X-COM and Jagged Alliance, while taking some aspects of Advance Wars and Fire Emblem.

After a weekend of playing the game I've determined it to be the best turn based tactical game I've played since Jagged Alliance 2, my favourite since 1999.

Yeah, I've played and loved it, especially for the carachters, beautiful, for the colours and in general for the art style. That's not my genre in general but I really enjoyed the game anyway. Too bad I didn't finish it, I couldn't go past a big tank.

I simply don't understand why this game didn't become way more popular than it did. Personally I think it's one of the best games to have come out for years and years...

You'll be happy to hear they're making a sequel for PSP, although by the same turn it seems like a very transparent ploy to sell more PSPs... in addition to Monster Hunter Freedom U, I think they may have gotten me already.

Finding this game is sooo hard that I'm going have to buy it online >.> (If not findable, theres a japanese import website somewhere ) oh yeah I want to play this because I'm watching the anime and it's awesome.
